Thoughts on Haraway

I agree with some of the previous posts about the "readability" of this section. I found it to be the most difficult section to read, so far. Sometimes the details became so extensive that it was hard to comprehend the main point of the argument. It was a nice change, however, to read a more optimistic view of technology, compared to previous authors' more dismal views about the future implications of technology. I also understand why some critics would label Haraway's ideas as political. In her opinion, if humans are all cyborgs, there is no need for a weak or oppressed group; there is no need for class divisions. Hopefully, as we discuss Haraway further, her ideas about the future of technology, especially cyborgs, will become clearer.
