I do consider myself as the "missing link" between transhumanist
posthumanism and postmodernist posthumanism, but this IMHO is far from
both.
If anything, "postmodern" posthumanism shows that no cultural
narrative makes sense and may be really understood in depth unless it
is related and reconnected to a given (individual, and by extension
collective) specific identity, which has to be made self-aware.
This is also the sense of the Heideggerian Abbau, or "deconstruction"-
