Comment on Xi and Putin overheard talking about organ transplants and immortality

I love all the genuine news we saw on Hexbear and ML about the parade and meetings…their outcomes, analysis of military capabilities, comparisons between this parade and other recent ones…genuine real information.

And then over here on lemmy dot zip we get “ZOMG EVIL SISSYPEE LEADER WANTS TO BE IMMORTAL?” Like first off how is that news. Second off it makes complete sense for 2 world leaders to be talking about their countries advancements in science. The fear mongering is comical especially alongside the complete lack of any actual real news about it being posted here.

This comm is like the tabloid section of a magazine stand and it’s hilarious

  Look, you do see how literally anyone could have a conversation about modern medicine leading to longer lifespans, right? Y’all are only making a big deal about it because it’s the two people you hate the most talking about it. The “journalist” reporting it like this is disingenuous at best, so when you shared it here, as if it was news, that makes you look bad. You get that, right?

    When two autocrats that have immense power talk about it it has a bit different meaning than two random people on street.
    
    I disagree with some of Xi’s policies, but I don’t hate him. On the other hand, war crimial Putin belongs in jail.
    
    Where did you see it being reported as “disingenuous”? As the article mentioned it was " <…> providing a rare glimpse into a candid conversation usually hidden from public view.".
    
    I post what I find interesting, not what someone else thinks I should post. This community is built around not censoring any point of view, no matter how it makes someone else feel. From one extreme to the other extreme and everything in between is allowed here and people can decide for themselves what to think and how to interpret the news.

    It’s disingenuous because it’s not news. It’s conflating a benign conversation as scandalous simply because of who’s doing the talking. You going to post their coffee order next?
