COVID-19大流行是一场人为灾难，由对生态平衡和多种物种生活的不当干扰造成。巧合的是，这种传染导致了技术和数字调解的使用增加，以及对疫苗和生物医学解决方案的希望增加。因此，它加剧了人类对认知资本主义的高科技经济的依赖，而认知资本主义正是造成这些问题的首要原因。这种与第四次工业革命和第六次大灭绝有关的矛盾元素的组合是后人类状况的标志。本文进一步探讨了这一条件，提出了批判性和肯定性的主张。
The COVID-19 pandemic is a man-made disaster, caused by undue interference in the ecological balance and the lives of multiple species. Paradoxically, the contagion has resulted in increased use of technology and digital mediation, as well as enhanced hopes for vaccines and biomedical solutions. It has thereby intensified humans' reliance on the very high-tech economy of cognitive capitalism that caused the problems in the first place. This combination of ambivalent elements in relation to the Fourth Industrial revolution and the Sixth Extinction is the trademark of the posthuman condition. This essay explores this condition further, offering both critical and affirmative propositions for moving forward.
