The works of intelligences that operate on the scale of star clusters and manipulate the fabric of reality with casual ease. S3 tech involves engineering dark matter and dark energy, creating new universes in controlled laboratory conditions (baby universes), and achieving effective immortality through backup across multiple dimensions. At this stage, technology and the will of the being are indistinguishable; they can rewrite the laws of physics within their domain.
Third Singularity/Godling (S3) Technologies Example: An S3 Archailect creating a Boltzmann Universe—a pocket reality with custom physical laws as a science experiment or art project—is using S3 tech. So is a being that moves entire star systems across the galaxy like pieces on a chessboard, or one that exists simultaneously as a physical entity and as the informational pattern of a nebula.

Get the Third Singularity/Godling (S3) Technologies mug.An extension of 21st Century Marxism with a civilizational timescale. It shifts the analytical horizon from quarterly earnings reports and election cycles to the survival of the human species and the planetary ecosystem over the next thousand years. Third Millennium Marxism confronts the long-term contradictions of capitalism: that a system predicated on endless growth will inevitably collide with thermodynamic limits; that technological "fixes" for climate change (geoengineering, space colonization) are themselves capitalist fantasies of escaping responsibility; that without a fundamental reorganization of production and consumption, ecological collapse is not a prediction but a certainty. It integrates the UN Sustainable Development Goals into a Marxist framework, not as aspirational targets to be met within capitalism, but as a checklist of capitalism's failures and a blueprint for what a post-capitalist society must achieve. It is Marxism with its eyes on the horizon, planning the centuries-long transition to a society of substantive equality and ecological balance.
Third Millennium Marxism Example: A Third Millennium Marxist evaluates a proposal for solar geoengineering. They note that it addresses the symptom (rising temperatures) while leaving the cause (capitalist production relations) untouched. They argue that such technologies concentrate unprecedented power over the global climate in the hands of whoever controls the sulfur-spraying aircraft—likely states or corporations with no democratic accountability. Their alternative is not a technological fix but a political transformation: global democratic planning for rapid decarbonization, the restoration of ecosystems, and the radical reduction of energy consumption in the Global North. This is a project not for the next quarter but for the next century—and the century after that.
