People on 4chan were talking about that sort of thing at least 15 years ago. I think it was on /tg/, if I remember. They were also much more concerned with the trolling/ethical thought of breeding for the brain. What if you bred someone who only had the thought of serving a master?
I think that’s enough evidence for me that selective breeding is horribly fucked in its outcome no matter the original aims, and the closest we should come is eliminating the ‘will kill you’ diseases.
The amount of times I’ve been blocked on Reddit for pointing out the hypocrisy of humans… Our species really need to be neutered by default, exceptions only for license holders.
That’s the thing. I believe, if handled correctly, progress could be made with eugenics. But I agree, my views are radical and by definition not fit for standard policy or any teaching format.
My definition of non-innocence is someone who has caused physical or emotional harm to another living being with malicious intent, regardless of provocation. Cruelty is the intent to repeat. This is the base for my laws of morality.
True, the design I believe in would only work if people like me would be in control, due to the nature of worldviews being unique to the individual. And the moment hands change over once, is the moment the laws get skewed by the worldview of the next group. I would restrict those who threaten humanity’s progress, who would refuse to educate or vaccinate a child, who would indoctrinate from birth into their gated world. The next person would restrict queerfolk like me. And the next would try to filter humanity into an Aryan race of purebloods.
The theory is there. The practice is improbable. But the lack of practice results in the Chinese, Russian or American governments and their followers. Those who would, and do, filter us out.
Imagine what people would do if they were allowed to selectively breed humans
The Spanish Habsburgs.
lol
That’s just called eugenics
Don’t sperm banks offer selective sperm choices based on intelligence and physical fitness?
intelligence? as if being brought up by a parent who believes this shit is gonna make you intelligent
There’s ZERO regulations in that industry, they can say whatever
One of the “most prolific” sperm donors in Britain is a neo-Nazi. His sperm has been used to bring about over 140 births, but he also spends his free time planning “lone wolf” attacks.

What if curing cancer resulted in the creation of a slave cast. Sounds like a pretty good star trek episode
I guess that movie is called Elysium.
At this point I’m wondering if our idiot overlords are using these fantasies as a guide rather than a warning
There are some sci fi stories about this. They are… not pretty.
I will follow the Kwisatz Haderach without hesitation.

We as a species spent so, so long learning the painful lesson that eugenics is an awful idea. Can we please not relitigate it? That is, can we please not shift the Overton window back to the ideology that directly led to and inspired the Holocaust?

Thank you
Oh sure, having a government body decide who’s fit or not for reproduction. Absolutely nothing that could go wrong with that. /S

Lead by example!
