And cancer impacts a large percentage of us at some point in our lives. It's fucking awful. It's a failure mode of multicellular organisms, and each of us have lots of cells nearing that state continually.
I have some extremely controversial ideas to accelerate progress on beating the disease, but I get downvoted and called a monster every time I suggest them.
We need to create decephalized monoclonal humans. If we can grow humans that lack brains just like plants, we can vastly accelerate research in real human models.
Research is the rate limiting step. Let's give researchers the best model, orders of magnitude better than what they've got currently. It's like we're asking them to develop cutting edge graphics on pen, paper, and punch cards.
We would also get an unlimited supply of organ, tissue, and blood transplants and can potentially remove all the immune markers / reactive HLA groups. The whole process becomes a new industry that self-sustains itself.
We could even make in roads on simply replacing parts of ourselves as we age. Bone marrow and immune system replacements.
Everyone calls me evil, but it's the most moral thing we could do.
I'm clawing to try to make it to a point where I can push this hard.
