The article is devoted to the analysis of digitalization of education from the perspective of the «antidigitalisation» approach. The aim of the study is to identify and discuss the problematic philosophical context specific to the «anti-digitalization» approach. The author believes that this approach should be based on the interpretation of digitalization as a tool for destroying the essence of man, as a result of which he can no longer reproduce either himself or the conditions of his existence. Intellectual labor is being replaced by gamification, entertainment, thinking is de-rationalized, and the phenomenon of «digital dementia» is spreading. In turn, speech activity, communication are reduced to interaction with and subordination to machine algorithms, which leads to desocialization. The paper shows the relationship between the contemporary form of digitalization and Neo-Malthusianism and transhumanism as well as the outdated approaches of mechanistic materialism and metaphysical thinking. What becomes the educational problem in the context of digitalization is the destruction of the traditional system of education and pedagogy, the turning of education into a simulacrum, and of its participants — into algorithm-driven objects. In the author's opinion, the way out of this crisis situation is possible only with a new reception of the Soviet experience in the field of education and the humanistic heritage of the past.

The article delves into the analysis of the "8 March Principles" presented by the International Commission of Jurists together with UNAIDS and the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights as a set of legal principles that decriminalize behavior in the field of sex, drug use, HIV, sexual and reproductive health, homelessness and poverty. Utilizing ostensibly civilized forms, these principles serve the Malthusian idea of population reduction ("corruption clothed in legal forms", Malthus's term), with law being no exception. However, while in traditional contexts, "dissolute living" (Malthus's term) like marriage, contributes to population growth, emphasizing the need for chastity among the lower classes, neo-Malthusianism normalizes debauchery, indeed leading to population reduction. The aim of this article is to identify the dehumanizing content, reducing humans from social subjects to biological objects. The study's subject encompasses dehumanizing conditions reflected in the "March 8 Principles" including the destruction of family, cultural, familial-role, gender, and sexual identities; legalization of drugs and pedophilia, prostitution, and begging as forms of commercial activity; as well as the destruction of culture. The methodological basis of this research is dialectical materialism. In scrutinizing the "March 8 Principles", this study highlights the dichotomy between the purported expansion of human rights and the underlying trend towards dehumanization. By elucidating how these principles relegate individuals from social subjects to biological one, the research underscores the erosion of fundamental societal structures and cultural values. As such, it prompts critical reflection on the broader implications of legal frameworks ostensibly designed to promote human rights. Through the lens of dialectical materialism, this analysis provides valuable insights into the complexities of modern legal and socio-cultural dynamics, inviting further scholarly inquiry into the intersection of law, morality, and human dignity.
