“Third Thumb” Augmentation Changes the Way we Think of Prosthetics
We live in a polarizing world filled with politics and conflict, from the 2016 elections here in the U.S. to the now turning violent Brexit ordeal in the U.K. As naive as it might sound, it’s a legitimate question to ask: why can’t we all just get along? Well, because we’re different people with different mindsets. It’s not like we can clone our preferable politician to take over Congress and Presidency (or Parliament and Prime Minister in the U.K.).

Cloning feels like an inevitability, and when it comes, it’s sure to be the top social issue of its day, so a political turning point where the first Clone president has been elected felt like that perfect setting to explore new technologies starting to be normalized, but where a lot of resistance has still taken root.”
