This article is full of blatantly faulty "logic." Maybe de Grey is guilty as charged, but this article is just irresponsible, reprehensible noise.
It's OK up to the cryonics comment, as far as I can tell; after that it just becomes sarcastic. For example, making sarcastic comments about a person's alibi does not mean the alibi is actually false.
Another example - the author states that he will judge de Grey based on some moron commenting on his blog - which is obviously faulty and shows that the author has suspect motivations.
Adding emotionalistic junk to the Internet puts you into the same kind of camp as, well... the normal people that we complain about (QAnon, etc.). I mean, seriously. Practice intellectual hygiene. If you can't do that, you shouldn't be listened to, you are contributing to the overall problem.
- jacquesm 5y agoThat's a fair criticism of the article, it would have been a lot stronger without all the junk.
- stormageddon 5y agoI don't think it even starts off that well. Close to the beginning it makes it sound like AdG is telling people he can make them immortal, which is a flat out lie. In podcasts and interviews as recent as a few weeks ago I remember he has corrected questions along those lines, saying nothing will stop a bus from flattening you for example. Ending ageing and ending death are completely different things.
