* ManualMisprint: The internal reference page numbers aren't too reliable. And I suspect listing "Mutualism" as one of the Anarcho-capitalist Extropian memes as well.

* SexBot: Pleasure pods, though technically they have a lot of biological parts.

* {{Terraform}}: Of a limited kind. Specially modified biomorphs can survive on Mars without a vacsuit and one of the goals of Reclaimer is to develop terraforming methods good enough to restore Earth.

* WhatMeasureIsANonSuper: The Ultimates and Exhumans look down on normal humans with disdain. The Ultimates being a [[SocialDarwinist Social Darwinistic]] [[{{Ubermensch}} extremist]] group of [[ProudWarriorRaceGuy ascetic]] [[OnlyInItForTheMoney mercenaries]], and the Exhumans being a group of [[TheSingularity singularity-chasing]] psychopaths who [[BodyHorror alter their bodies in the most unusual ways]].

* SpaceWhale: Suryas, giant space whales [[BeyondTheImpossible LIVING ON THE SURFACE OF THE SUN]]!

* DidNotDoTheResearch: The Extropian faction is described as an alliance of anarcho-capitalists and mutualists who are united by their support of the free market, in contrast to the anarcho-communism of the Anarchist faction. In actual fact, while anarcho-capitalism and mutualism are superficially similar, they are diametrically opposed on a number of important issues and their supporters tend to accuse one another of advocating tyranny. (Example: private property is considered by anarcho-capitalists to be an inviolable right, while the founder of mutualist thought, Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, was the originator of the popular anarchist slogan "property is theft.") Mutualists would be far more comfortable in an alliance with the social anarchists of the Anarchist faction or the individualist anarchists of the Scum.

* BodyBackupDrive: This borrows the cortical stack concept from ''AlteredCarbon'' and externally stored "backups" are considerably more common (instead of being exclusive to the wealthy as in ''Carbon'').

* {{Immortality}}: Cortical stacks and backups simulate Type IV, with the possibility of Type IX.

* ScaleOfScientificSins: AI, transhumanism, hubris, the end of death, creating new forms of life, resurrecting others. It checks off six of the seven sins. And if the exhumans or TITANs get their way, they'll have a full set.

* SlidingScaleOfLibertarianismAndAuthoritarianism: Extropia on one end of the spectrum, the Jovian Junta on the other.

* FridgeHorror: Lots of this.

* TheVirus: The jury is out on whether the Exsurgent virus is worse than anything [[{{Prototype}} GENTEK]] or [[ResidentEvil the Umbrella Corporation]] ever made.

*** Given that one of the starting bodies available are 'Please Pods' which are bio-engineered hookers who can switch their gender at will, can be remote controlled to a punters whims and have enhanced control over ''certain'' muscle groups, yeah... theres some weird kinky sex in the transhuman future.

* SpaceColdWar

* [[DeathIsCheap Death Is Less Expensive]]: Thanks to mental uploading, personality backups, and cortical stacks, most people are able to simply "resleeve" if their body is killed. However, there are costs involved (both mental/spiritual and economic), and with so many indentured infomorphs waiting to be resleeved, bodies are a moderately scarce and valuable commodity.

* {{Gotterdammerung}}: The Fall annihilated Earth and 95% of the human race with it. People still talk about the time before the Fall as if it was our Golden Age.

* ItsTheOnlyWayToBeSure: This is standard operating procedure for Firewall's Erasure Squads, which are only activated when [[GodzillaThreshold subtlety ceases to be an option]].

* NuclearOption: This is standard operating procedure for Firewall's Erasure Squads, which are only activated when subtlety ceases to be an option.

* NukeItFromOrbit: This is standard operating procedure for Firewall's Erasure Squads, which are only activated when subtlety ceases to be an option.

* NoTranshumanismAllowed: Played straight by the Jovian Republic and other bioconservative groups, very much averted by everyone else.
