While the target is not to ensure people “live forever”, this could be a step forward towards understanding how exactly people age and thus the ways we can counter and slow it down to ensure humans live full, healthy lives rather than say making it to 90 but where the last 20-30 of those years are full of pain, being bedridden etc

Kill it, quickly. The last thing we need is to have the same old asshole boomer white men who are late 70’s early 80’s live longer. JFC, I want an exit. Fuck it all.

YOU DON’T WANT THIS.
Not only will this only be available to the super rich (1% of the 1%) but as a society in general this would be terrible
“The misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed – the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass, and dictators die, and the power they took from the people will return to the people. And so long as men die, liberty will never perish”

Sometimes I wished it was possible to live longer, but now I realise that whatever medication is invented will be only accessible to rich people.
So it only means more years of having a rich bastard making our world worse.
