Really? Where are those masses who love giraffes so much? A fantasy isn't the same as reality.

And I talked in the article about frivolous vs noble uses of technology. Just because we can do something with technology doesn't mean we should. But what decides what we should do is our existential predicament of being minds stuck in godless nature. Being half-giraffes would hardly be progressive unless all the food happened to be high up off the ground.
