People that dont want to experience climate and societal collapse I guess
If you're under 50 you're probably going to experience it anyhow, no anti-aging butt stuff necessary.
I honestly think ending aging would be a boon for society. Because the death rate will plummet to accidental deaths, suicides, and homicides only, which are a tiny fraction of total overall deaths.
Therefore overpopulation is going to very quickly motivate world society to get its collective shit together to solve the nagging problems that have been holding us back, and encourage expansion into the rest of the solar system. Because if the issues weren't solved, even the wealthy elite would be threatened.
Haha very optimistic. Like overpopulation currently causing "untolerable illegal immigrant waves" causes people to reduce their CO2 footprint, share their homes and all.
Hell, please no more old people. Many are nice, but no way. There is a reason politics made by old people doesnt work
