Fortunately, this statement is true for many plans of the elite :-)

I too upon hearing of a lunatic beating a frozen disembodied head to gallagheresque pulp with a blunt instrument can't help but smile sardonically if the resulting goop was formerly wealthier than me. Cool and normal. Power to the people bro. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

It's just like I always say: class warfare is a dish best served cryogenically frozen.

Might have done the world a service. Immortality combined with winner takes all capitalism will just lead to an entrenched race of god emperors that won’t be removed ever except by society wide violence, basically like medieval kingdoms or dynastic empires. Market economies have helped limit that a bit(wealth inheritances still have a problem), but one of the unstated backstops of that system is that eventually the rich people in question do eventually die

> Immortality

If your body is not damaged enough. It would mean a lot of people would become really risk averse. If generalized it would fossilize a society really fast.

You've repeated their point.

The ends justify the monkey wrenches, eh?

A guilloutine wouldn't have worked in this case

If the other ends are live under immortal elites who never give up power, then kinda yea. That's was a lot of the reasoning behind peasants taking up arms against monarchies

Either democracy fixes the wealth gap, or violence does. And democracy ain't lookin' too hot over the past ten years.

I'm no doctor but my guess is the frozen disembodied head was already dead..

It's still a crime.

All must be equal, then we will be free! Use violence if necessary, it will leads us right into utopia.

Naive to think otherwise.

I hope your dream job is digging turnips out of the ground. Although given historical precedent you’d have a higher chance of winding up in the ground after a violent revolution.

It's the reason why they switched from low-paid underlings to a little better paid caste of technocatric petty bourgeoisie for the XXIst century ;)

They've also switched from preservation to attempting to avoid death altogether through stem cell treatments and longevity drugs.
