    What we call race today are arbitrary and irrelevant traits like skin color, but wait until genetic engineering takes the lead and we have different actual races with objectively superior races.

      Idk much about genetic engineering and whatnot, but I’m definitely wary of the day people are really able to apply it to humans. Maybe I’m just catastrophasizing, I haven’t studied this stuff at all, it just seems like it’d be a big deal. Kinda like how Darwinism and evolution had effects on the social/political climate.

      Hopefully it isn’t/won’t be a big deal in a negative way. It’s one of those things I should totally learn more about so it’s less scary, I just haven’t gotten to it yet. Sorry for the rant lol.

      E: Come to think of it, it probably doesn’t help that most of the “reading” I’ve done on the subject is from comic books, lmao. And the new(ish) Guardians of the Galaxy movie. No wonder the topic feels spooky.
