The part of me traumatized by our society drives my cynical obtrusive thought: this will cull some of the stupid genes from the pool.
Maybe idiocracy is not inevitable. Maybe the stupid, selfish,fear-consumed will remove themselves from the healthier parts of humanity. Too bad I won’t be around for the better world.
I don’t believe in evil bloodlines, except in genetics that cause a predisposition to sociopathy. Even those people can learn to have empathy with intervention.
The absolute numbers are still very low, and these folks tend to have more babies overall, so I don’t think there’s much silver lining here, even a grim one. They’re just accepting higher infant mortality for no good reason because they don’t understand statistics or that evolution doesn’t care about “perfect” or about any individual baby (or anything else of course, because it’s just a biological principle, but you take my meaning).
You have to work with who gets born and just try to bring as much critical thinking and empathy into the world as you can. If anything “good” will come of this, it will be as cautionary tales parents and doctors tell pregnant people.
Yeah, I’m of European descent and even I have some angst about a potential loss of identity for the future. Still, I’m not going to go all Nazi on the world.
We’re a collective series of mutations resulting from the colder, darker environments of the northern regions. I’d rather see the best/useful/beautiful characteristics of all ethnicities come together in a better humanity for all.
We might be the last remaining reservoirs of Neanderthal genes like the south pacific people might be the lat reservoir of denosivan genes. It would be a shame if all that were lost.
Still humanity is about the people who are alive now, and all deserve full recognition and rights. Genetic diversity improves the chances of species survival. That is what’s important.
This is horrific.

At this point I am much worried about the future effect of evil bloodlines then of stupid ones.
They do often go hand in hand, granted, but there are some wonderful stupid and/or mentally handicapped folks out there.

well yeah, I imagine the passing down of the evil is taught much moreso than genetic.

Even worse, they’re accepting infant mortality because “master white race” and fear of being the minority in 2045.
