Time to start our meme contest! The theme is Objections to Life Extension. Ever talked to someone about longevity and faced ridiculous “overpopulation” claims? Maybe they came up with a different [original] reason or excuse why helping people live longer is a bad idea? Yes, it’s paradoxical—one needs to persuade that being alive is better than being dead. Memes are the most eloquent answer to this absurdity. Common objections for your memes: • Overpopulation will be a problem • Life will be boring • Better a short, full life than a long, miserable one • Only healthspan matters • Immortal dictators! • Death is natural • Evolution will stop • Aging is impossible to defeat • Infinity is unachievable • Avoiding death is selfish • Death gives life meaning • I’m curious about the afterlife • We’ll be stuck with old ideas forever How to participate Post a new, original meme that hasn’t been published anywhere before.
