There is no meaning in life, except the meaning we make.

Whether hedonism or a life of discipline, there is no objective difference when we all turn into dirt, but at least the hedonist can say they experienced everything life had to offer.

It doesn't matter, and focusing on it is a waste of time and energy.

Why must you feel the need to be the arbiter of what is "degenerate" or "honorable" in society.

Let people do what they want if it's not hurting anyone, and don't encourage this pointless mindset that is a precursor to endless outrage.

I never understood this almost cult like obsession with accepting death or old age for some people.

Of course we don't currently have the ability to entirely reverse aging in humans, but for the first time it is within our reach and people cling to it like it's a tradition.

"We've always died so we must always continue to die."

Or some people who think they are taking a morally righteous position by wanting to die?

Even if we can't fully be "immortal" per say, at least we can strive to make life into old age much more functional and enjoyable.

Instead of the space race, it's the tech race this time.

Many people in the field of developing these ani-aging drugs actually think that corporations will incentize the lower classes to take these drugs, so that they can exploit the labor of their workers for longer periods of time.

This will prevent companies from having to worry about retraining their workers after someone dies, and it will also make it easier for them to justify lower wages when everyone has an extra 100 years of time to spend unfortunately.

Japan for example, the leading investor in longevity science plans to distribute drugs like this to the general populus, all to stop the population decline of their country and to boost the economy.

So it's not exactly as clear cut to think that it would just be available to the wealthy like a sci-fi novel, reality is more nuanced.

Idk I feel like this is screwed up and unethical.

I like a lot of tech, but I would prefer to continue using digital neurons, we don't exactly know where consciousness ends and begins, if it really is experiencing something that could be considered as such.

He saves us by telling everyone to drink sparkling wa-uh.
