I would say the fallacy of progress. Kieerkegaard said that each generation has the same tasks as every other one and doesn't get a head start. The idea that the circumstances of our life make us somehow different from the mass of humanity, whether presently living or past or future, regardless of the usual things that divide us, etc. The myth of progress is what drives the 'progressives' but doubly so the transhumanists. We may soon have cause to know that the 'advances' of our civilization are mostly imaginary
