Indeed, super casual. Disturbingly so.
“2 of the triplets can’t read at grade level; the plus 5 IQ option didn’t deliver enough utils in my Monte Carlo simulation.”
How many rounds of IVF is the poor pregnant partner, inevitably a cis woman, meant to do? Isn’t IVF infamously fucking gruelling, requiring injections and ending in miscarriages? Is her husband going to make her feel like shit for refusing to make being pregnant her full time job? A massive amount of reproductive labour is just being taken for granted here.
And if these EAers refuse, the reproductive labour just gets passed on to other women. Grimes didn’t want to have another kid with Elon (aren’t they nonbinary? I’m sure it might have caused them dysphoria) so Elon persuaded one of his fucking employees into doing IVF and being their surrogate because it’s important for smart people to have kids. (Source)
Reproductive rights - never more important!
“How dare you call us eugenicists!”
Is that top reply from Scott? And is he really saying that what is holding eugenics back for now is ethical concerns?
Well I certainly hope ethical concerns are holding back eugenics. Possibly even among the main things doing so.
I think when we say ‘held back by ethical concerns’ and he says ‘held back by ethical concerns’ it means different things.
Best way to do it would be adding some genetic fitness signalling to internet dating.
Yeah, I may look like a serial killer and my political views would make Hitler blush, but check out my genes, baby!
I’m just going to pretend that this thread was instead about IV breeding Pokemon. I don’t need to see a casual expression of some of humanity’s worst ideas on Reddit.
Do not give SSC a water stone.
Uggggghhhhhhhhhhhh
Should really be doing screen shots or an archive link so we’re not driving traffic to reddit.
That said, fucking wot?
Perfect, now it will be safe from getting scrubbed next time SVSS realizes he’s let the mask slip.
Probably need to get that archive refreshed, there’s fresh terrible replies
that there are! updated
“Thanks.”
Edit JFC I went back and read the new comments. Pro-tip: don’t.
yeah sorry I should probably have included a (stronger) warning
