What do warmongers and strongmen chat about? Living forever, of course.
No it isn’t. All this microphone leak tells us is that these leaders are very far away from reality.
Man inadvertently broadcasts his insecurities and how he copes.
Yeah, other than the horrific ghoulishness of it all, organ failure after transplant and rejection is still relatively high, and you have to be on medicine to prevent that rejection your entire life. You’re going down Putin old boy.
It wouldn’t surprise me if they have an island of clones to get over that problem.
You can’t get past the old brain problem though so Donny’s shit out of luck.
Yeah, you can’t just stick a new engine in an old car when the frame is rusted out and ready to give way
What if you get skin, muscle, and bone transplants?
Good luck. Also your brain and vascular system will be huge bottle necks that can’t be replaced. Most people don’t realize it, but as people age, their veins and arteries begin to weaken\deteriorate to different extents depending on their overall health.
If you had an 80 year with CAD, and literally swapped out every organ you could, they would probably have an aneurysm and die within a few months. It would be like taking an old garden hose with dry rot and then pumping 5000gallons per minute through it when it’s only rated for 50 gpm to begin with
So, at this point it’s just better to transplant your brain in to a whole new body
I hope to never have to experience one organ transplant. They are morons if they think this is an elective option you’d want to do multiple times. Every single time is a threat to your life.
And life-long immunosuppressants with the constant mortal fear of a cough or runny nose. Sepsis is no joke and can easily develop in a matter of hours if you don’t have a healthy immune system.
I hope we gain more control over our immune systems in the coming years. They protect us, but they can also kill us. I have people in my family with life threatening allergies, and gosh it would be amazing if we could just get our bodies to accept a transplanted organ that is literally keeping them alive.
It’ll happen. But not for poor people.
It tells us they’re fucking morons. So nothing new.
Are they hoping for Jupiter, or Repo the Genetic Opera? Because this isn’t even close to Gattaca.
Either way, this has been a Science Fiction Movie.

Organ transplants can’t stop these
Just gotta convince 'em it 's the 1st step in a head transplant.
This.

Joseph Guillotin and the Electric Shotguns would be an amazing band name
Put yourself through traumatic surgery and then load yourself up with immune suppressants in a world that’s gonna develop more and more pandemics.
…do it. Do it do it do it.
Personally, I crave the strength and certainty of steel.
One day the crude biomass you call “the temple” will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you.
But I am already saved, for the Machine is immortal.
There is no truth in flesh, only betrayal. There is no strength in flesh, only weakness. There is no constancy in flesh, only decay. There is no certainty in flesh but death. --Credo Omnissiah
Do you want cybermen because Kit Pedler had a whole thing about this…
Oh boy, perpetually recovering from surgery at an advanced age!
I’ve seen The Strain, this ends in facist vampires and nukes
Our one saving grace in this post truth, post experts aren’t Johnny with a 4 chan account world, is that these dictators are so fucking stupid. Let them think they could have multiple organs from multiple “donors”. Sad part is we might lose a doctor or two when the bad hit outside the park, was dropped.
I’ve just had some -ectomies and ooooof that’s gonna do him in at his age. It went well when I was young and I still barely survived.
Traumatic surgery, sure.
But I assume the plan is to build replacement organs with your own dna, not transplants from donors.
Yeesh I didn’t even think about this, but that might explain this accusation. I guess choosing from a catalogue of harvested organs to select the closest match would also decrease the need for immuno suppressants. Experts: China is sequencing Uyghur DNA for organ harvesting
Kinda makes you wonder if that’s another reason they want increased genetic homogeneity and increased birthrates. Also makes me think of those catalogues of Ukrainian children Russia was offering for adoptions.
They’re dictators and wealthy psychopaths.
They don’t need people to donate, they’ll simply take what they want, like they’ve always done.
They’ll just live in a bubble. They practically already do, for their own safety, because almost every person on the planet wants them dead, most with good reason (some just want to take their place).
Well yeah, but even a psychopath’s fantasy would take the no-anti-rejection-meds route.
yeah this isn’t WH 40K. You can’t make a “Primaris Putin” and “continuous organ transplants” are only going to top you out at a few extra years, maybe, unless this fucker has somehow struck a deal with Nurgle or Khorne or some other Warp entity.
Now if his flesh starts bubbling and his intestines are suddenly on the outside of his body and he grows a maw on his shoulder? yeah then I’d start worrying.
Has anyone seen his shoulders lately? It’s been a long time since that shirtless pic of him riding a horse…
Ask that Rockefeller but you might need to go through hell to ask him in person
Sure, cuz old sick people bounce right back easily from complex major surgeries like transplants.
Shhhh! Shut up! **Shut the fuck up!**
This is a chance he’ll die on the OR table!
I keep hearing people make this argument. This seems to presume that these insane blood thirsty dictators discussing immortality, are also rational individuals who wouldn’t be willing to stockpile organs first, then die trying.
I hope he gets a brain transplant soon. He really needs one.
What a zinger!
“zinger” in Dutch means singer. That would be funny. If Putin would get a singer brain and he quits his dictatorship and wars and just goes to sing at parties instead.
Start with the brain
So in other words, “immortality” until the brain cancer is inoperable.
Seems deeply unlikely to work. The body only has so much capacity to heal from surgery, and that capacity diminishes with age, so eventually your surgeries would become too close together and you wouldn’t ever fully heal. At that point you might end up happier as a brain in a jar.
Yeah organ transplants are miraculous in the way medicine is miraculous not in the way religion is.
Medical miracles have limits and drawbacks. Organ transplants save lives and drastically improve quality of life, but it’s compared to a baseline of needing a new organ. Kidney recipients would much rather deal with anti rejection meds than dialysis. Heart recipients’ alternative is to die slowly.
Many rich people seem to think that shit like this will just replace their font of yang or something. They can’t accept that someday all that will remain of them is dust and consequences.
Death from unnatural causes aside, there are so many potentially fatal complications involved with an organ transplant, and even if you dodge all those bullets, there is the simple fact that we degenerate at a cellular level. None of us are on this Earth for long: rich, poor, president or janitor, death will not discriminate.
It’s really bad for the rich and powerful to forget that. Like partly for the people whose organs they’ll steal, but also just like for their psyches. Like, they’re clearly losing it.
Honestly even Rome (the republic) managed to be healthier about it. The element of the memento mori in the triumph, was just healthy. Sure you can have your great celebration honoring your conquest, but a slave will be following you reminding you that you too will die the entire time.
If I can still access and interact with my steam account, hit me up with the sign up form!
One word: “Zippers”.
At that point you might end up happier as a brain in a jar.
They are already deeply unhappy broken individuals. They have everything and can’t get any more unhappy.
May the pursuit of immortality go as well for him as it did for Qin Shi Huang.
If it does happen, it’s only going to be for the absolute worst people in the world…fortunately, they still won’t be immune to guillotines.
Continuously?

When it does the tech will be controlled by, horded by, and available only to the ultra-wealthy, which should come as a surprise to no one.
