If immortality becomes widely available, we will lose the current guarantee that “awful people will eventually die”, which greatly increases the upper bounds of the awfulness they can spread
I mean… amazingly good people die too. Sure, a society of immortals would obviously very weird, and possibly quite static, but I don’t see how eventual random death is some kind of saving grace here. Awful people die and new ones are born anyway.
