Depends on how you value human life.

Their organs can be harvested to save countless.

I hear billionaires are quite the delicacy.

But also extremely toxic!

[-] BarneyPiccolo@lemmy.today 2 points 10 hours ago

Well, not "countless." Sociopathic Oligarchs are a finite resource, but we should exploit that finite resource as ruthlessly as they would.

Not nearly as many lives saved from one set of organs as lives destroyed to become a billionaire.

Like not even close.

This is still one way they can give back. Don't worry, though, if they're donating their organs to help a few people, it means they're dead, and we can use their estate to help a whole lot more!

Yuck! Probably full of adrenochrome 🫪

There's only so many billionaires, with so many organs, a lot of those organs will be trash, so you could definitely count how many lives could be saved.

Those organs have had the best treatment, good food, expert medical care, some have even been infused with the blood of healthy young athletes. Sure, a few have stressed their organs with cocaine, cigars, and expensive scotch, but most will be well-preserved.

I say go for it.
