In short:
A live-stream broadcast of China’s military parade has captured Xi Jinping and Vladimir Putin discussing biotechnology’s potential to extend life.
An interpreter translating Mr Putin can be heard saying in Mandarin that human organ transplants could let “us live younger and younger, and perhaps even achieve immortality”.
Mr Xi responded that it may be possible for people to live to 150 years this century.
That sounds like the average conversation of a group of guys on their 3rd beer on a Friday afternoon.
Yeah although these guys have access to an unlimited supply of freshly harvested organs which puts a different spin on it.
Pass the bong.
Or a bunch of morons who have completely lost touch with reality on account of having unchallenged absolute power for far too long.
What being rich and alienated from real people does to a MF.
You see the same thing with silicon valley ceos.
Who also think they’re going to be immortal.
Probably that’s because that’s exactly what this is? They’re watching a parade having a beer. What did we expect?
That’s what I’m trying to convey here
