Well the old people in power just gets replaced withother old people. Making people grow old and die isn’t working against dictators either.
But your idea is that it would be better if we became ill even earlier then, like we should stop fighting aging the way we do it today (medicin, operations, transplants…)?
How about we solve the quality of life issues with higher age first before we work on extending the lifespan even more. Nobody benefits from old senile people who have to stay in bed all day and can’t see properly having a few more years of suffering in that state.

“Kill the old people because of their politics” is all I hear whenever someone argues against longevity.

Reversing aging is exactly that (edit : making quality of life better, longevity is a mere byproduct). I think it’s the best way.
But people don’t seem to think so, and today we try to “make people stay alive as long as possible” which as you points out is just bad for everyone.
We agree. See Valmond’s comment above:
