Evil & wealthy people would be able to continue their nepotism and despotism indefinitely. Kind of makes me wonder just how long cloning technology has been used. As in how many millinea/reset cycles. This place is straight fucked at the moment. We are enslaved. 100 fucking percent. I just want to be able to spend all day every day with my incredible children instead of working for pennies so as to not live in a fucking van, down by the river.. which at the moment almost sounds like a good idea. We could fish and swim and hunt and sit around a campfire every night.. Fuck. My priorities are straight wack.

Very good question which several books worth of answers can be printed. The general idea is that things would seem normal at first, but decades of living with that technology would render death and murder meaningless. The Overton window would shift so far left that killing someone as punishment for their speech would be seen as reasonable since they can always be “brought back to life” and probably deserved it anyway. Nobody would be able to tell the difference between an original and a remake, and eventually new diseases would appear due to unforeseen consequences: cancers, autoimmune diseases, shorter lifespans, etc.

TL;DR The bad would most likely outweigh the good. I’d cash in on it before that, though, by splicing the human genome with cats to create the perfect army of catgirl assassins that fulfil my every desire. https://i.imgur.com/6y0UXQ6.jpg

This is pure science fiction. Clone technology =/= memory and personality imprinting technology.

I didn’t say it would be memory or personality imprinting. If you were cloned, your clone would be a baby and grow up to, most likely, be completely different from you.

Perhaps that could be used as an excuse to kill someone and give their clone a second chance not to make the controlling political party angry.

They could erase anyone they wanted and just replace them with a modified clone

We'd never run out of organs as civilians, but the elite would never run out of ten year olds to terrorize and drink their terrorised blood.
