Dunno what that means

New Man (Utopian Concept):

In religious contexts, "new man" can refer to a spiritual rebirth or transformation in Christ.
New Man has like 100 different contexts i went with the communist one of changing human behavior, which up until the social media and the internet was a pretty retarded concept

"Although personally, I think cyberspace means the end of our species." didn't read anything past that or click any links
