I just have 0 Idea where you’re getting your info from. 10-20 years ago you would be looked at like a crazy person if you talked about being immortal or curing aging. Even the people who talked about it still though it was 40-50 years away, which is pretty consistent

You still are a crazy person. Resources are limited people can not continue to have kids and live forever. Embrace the human experience, enjoy perception. Then face death like a man and not a coward. Instead of wasting your life, live it.

Are you in pain every day? Can you barely walk? Do you suffer from dementia?

If you replied no to those questions, you have no right to be calling anyone a coward. We can prevent suffering by defeating old age but you're just another person who wants to prevent progress. Someone who wants suffering to be embraced. What will you do when it's you in that position? Can't take care of yourself. Can't go to the bathroom on your own. You're going to accept? You are going to embrace that pain and suffering? You are going to "be a man???"

I seriously doubt that. Lie to yourself all you want, though.

You're the fucking nutcase here, pal.

Who knows, I hope I will be able to. No one is saying we should not try to cure dementia, no one is saying we should not decrease pain. But as typical of your ideological insanity you ignored all the problems, failed to offer even a sinvle solution. What do we do about the run away population growth? The famine? War? Oh great you cured a few individual sufferings and wrought suffering on a mass scale to all of human civilization. Those things you tall about as if they are guarantees, they will not be extended to everyone.
