Om Malik – Has pandemic pushed us into a post-human future? (om.co)

There are two appearances of the word "post-human". First is in the title and the second is in a paragraph that does not define it. I don't know what "post-human" means after reading the article. Seems like a word that could mean anything to justify whatever claim the author is making. This makes me suspicious of this author in general.


Is it getting common in American usage to drop articles? I've seen that with "blockchain" a lot, but it seems to be a broader change.


I think the whole eugenics movement is wrapped up in this pandemic and fits neatly into the transhuman movement
