Hedgism

Hedgism (also referred to as Median Biopolitick Thought, Hedge Theory, or just Bonnettism) is the official state ideology of The Sila-Nunam Empire. It was coined by medical technician Hedges Bonnett sometime in the early 2200s. It is the most rapidly spreading of the tripolar ideologies. It is largely considered an evolution of various transhumanist movements. It is opposed by its counterparts; Bourbonism and Tanakism.

Key tenets of Median Biopolitick Thought include:


 * Scientific progress is to be triumphed above society or the individual.
