A short excerpt from a YouTube video ("True Alchemy vs Biohacking Exposed") where two speakers contrast traditional/spiritual alchemy with contemporary biohacking. The speakers argue that genuine alchemy (framed as spiritual transformation, e.g., Taoist qigong practice) differs from modern biohackers who seek physical immortality; they use strong critical language, calling some biohackers "idiots," "parasites," and "vampires," and frame the push to "live forever" or "immortalize your consciousness" as morally charged and spiritually dangerous.

Let me tell you about alchemy and how you're mishearing what alchemy is and what it became.
Because what alchemy.
Is to a Taoist qigong master is you.
Are turning your lead.
Into gold.
And what alchemy became is these idiots who started mixing together to try to live forever. And if you look at the biohacking.
World right now, those idiots are loud and they have followers, and they are.
Parasites, and.
They'Re vampires.
Convincing people to live forever versus immortalizing.
Your consciousness.
To me, is the difference.
Between God and Lucifer.
And there's a lot of that energy.
In this biohacking.
Community right now. Immortalize your consciousness. Try to live forever and take all these tonics and follow these idiots and do all this weird shit and drink baby blood. I mean, it's as vampirical and parasitic as it's ever been.
