Putin and Xi brainstorm living to 150 with modern organ transplants
The worst thing you have ever read just came out, everybody. These two assholes plan on living longer than any of us.
Yes! Please try tomorrow! It only hurts a little! Get corneal implants. Those heal right back! Get a big pig heart and lungs. Those really last!
"Earlier, people rarely lived to 70, but these days at 70 you are still a child," Xi told Putin according to the translator in Russian.
Hard to argue with that. Both of these cunts seem to lack any emotional intelligence whatsoever.
Putin strikes me as the kind of guy who would have some clones grown in the comfort of their blissful ignorance to harvest as spare parts in case of an emergency the great leader finds himself in. 🤷
The fact that they are serious just shows how dumb they really are. We are not even close to that. The stress from that many transplants would probably reduce life expectancy. But let's just imagine it works, you would still have to deal with brain degeneration and dementia. These are not serious people. Can we please stop allowing arrogant psychopaths to take top positions of power
Your phrasing of "allowing" implies that these guys are in power through some sort of legitimate electoral process. They're both dictators, who claimed power through force and intimidation. There's no "let" about it, nor any "say" in the situation from people at large.
Just because dictators demand to be called by western elected official terminology in translations to english media, doesn't make them same animal. It's propaganda meant to normalize their rule.
Every country is a democracy in a sense. Its just a matter of the amount of effort needed for the people to make their voices heard. Under dictatorships, to make your voices heard, it usually requires a significant threat of violence. Its much more stable in the long term to just have elections. Not fighting for a better government is, in a sense, allowing that dictatorship to continue.
Yup. The elderly generally do not do well with:
And they're asking for repeated episodes of 1 and possibly 75 years of 2. I'd be all for letting them slowly kill themselves this way if it weren't for the fact that every organ they use is an organ that could've been given to someone who actually needs it.
Lifelong immune suppression won't be needed if you're using cloned organs. Immediately after surgery yes, but not for life.
This. Go right ahead, morons.
Putin's good friend and fellow enjoyer of underage kids Berlusconi also had great faith in organ transplanting to live forever. Leukemia decided not to care about his opinion tho.
Old farts should sit in care homes, not ruling nations. Term limits and the same age cutoff as the regular blue collar worker and then go paint bad pictures on your ranch like W Bush.
I didn't think I'd ever get a very opinion of the latter, but here we go.
Go for it. Why not start with the brain?
Honestly it's great to know they're struggling with their inevitable deaths. Got to sting a bit. They're headed for the same dirt they've sent so many people to.
I hate when people like this die of old age though
Have they ever met someone trying to live with an organ transplant? It's not like swapping out parts for a machine. Your immune system is permanently suppressed to prevent rejection so you are at risk for so many other problems, and even if you don't reject the organ, you will need another replacement eventually.
It's disturbing when you hear the idiot techbro billionaires fantasizing about engineering their own immortality, but it's really disappointing that the most powerful world leaders are also this detached from reality. All the most powerful people are utterly delusional sociopaths.
I think they should give it a go.
They have a child's understanding of the concepts... which is not particularly surprising, you don't get to be a dictator by being well-educated, in fact it almost requires being shut off from as much knowledge as possible. They tend to be unable to hear the truth and basically force their underlings to gaslight them.
China has been harvesting their victim’s organs for decades
Soon, a bunch of Chinese dissidents with the same blood type as Putin will be sentenced to death...
how about a brain transplant?
leaders of two of the world's most technologically prominent countries muse on the prospects of transhumanism in front of a crowd of dozens
rabid disapproval from liberals who claim that Putin and Xi got caught on a hot mic wanting to live forever so they can rule eternally or something, idk
Seriously, the reading comprehension is abysmal in this thread. Can someone show me where Putin or Xi said they personally wished to live to 150?
two of the world’s most technologically prominent countries
Russia
LMFAO. lemmy.ml users just can't stop glazing autocracies, can they?
These 2 are not the kind of people that are known to care about unselfish things.
Evil never dies. But bullets can ruin a lot of new organ transplants.
