And additional question: even if it was technically feasible, was it really ethical to surgically implant Hitler's cloned brained into the body of a silverback gorilla and make it fight against Tigerstalin?

Everybody's so concerned with preserving Hitler's brain. But when you put it into the body of a great white shark, ooh, suddenly you've gone too far.

But in the 80s, we transplanted Donald Trump's brain into a house cat addicted to cocaine.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

That's ridiculous cocaine was addicted to Bill

It would be to more unethical to not do that.

Stalin disappeared thousands of people. Tiger Stalin "disappeared" a few, but there was no hiding it, the pile of intestines and bones was a dead giveaway.
