I sometimes joke, "what about the cancer?" And not just in jest for despicable people afflicted. These are weird evolutions of ourselves. We should study them.

I sometimes joke, "what about the cancer?" And not just in jest for despicable people afflicted. These are weird evolutions of ourselves. We should study them. The shit probably isn't going to be as cool as Butcher from The Boys, but ALL the removed masses of human brain tissue should definitely be preserved in a non-destructive way as possible and should be studied. I don't think we can fully understand brain abnormalities before we understand the brain, but seeing some failure cases has to help.
So we should remove them especially as we lack the full understanding to know if they are always dangerous.
- zsoltkacsandi 2y agoIn my country all removed tissue (including brain) has to be preserved, and studied/examined by a pathologist. I don’t think there is any new in this. > So we should remove them especially as we lack the full understanding to know if they are always dangerous. You don’t want to mess with the brain if it isn’t absolutely necessary.
- undersuit 2y agoWell I live in a different country and I think a panel of experts including a pathologist and a neurologist should study it. I thought it was a good idea, sorry I suck. >You don’t want to mess with the brain if it isn’t absolutely necessary. Who said it shouldn't be absolutely necessary? This is kinda of part of the discussion. The person in the article had a growth removed and it was benign, we didn't have enough knowledge beforehand to make that decision and the risk was deemed sufficient. Was one seizure really enough reason to remove a benign growth?
