Most recently I’m bothered by how transplant surgery is lauded. How many people were cut up and experimented upon, and were maimed or died so that collectively we can have an obsession with how awesome organ transplants are? Publicly there’s high support for organ transplants, but it seems that consuming the organs as a blood-rich fountain of youth fails to get mentioned. “Off label” use of organs may be the reason why donation is pushed so hard. My opinion is against surgically cutting people up as an excuse to learn more advanced methods of cutting people up. I am not an organ donor, and I won’t be bullied into becoming one.
