      It is a person choice… “People” can get fuxked unless you are going to provide generous social safety net for a person to have ability to take care of such a child.

      Most working pedons can barely afford to wipe their own ass under this clown regime.

      Forcing yourself into poverty to satisfy some idiots feels is a fool’s arrand.

      If your decision to abort is because the fetus will be a redhead, that’s “planned breeding”, not “eugenics”.

      The sine qua non of eugenics is a state mandate.

          The state is not involved in your decision to not have ginger kids. Your decision not to have ginger kids is not eugenics.

          The state providing incentives for behavior is a mandate. The state providing incentives for not having ginger kids is eugenics. Not “subtle eugenics”. Not “planned breeding”. Eugenics.

      this is kind of ridiculous. do you realize how broad a term “disability” is? my parents have poor eyesight and need glasses. are they bad people for having kids when they knew we would inherit that?

      • this is kind of ridiculous. do you realize how broad a term “disability” is?

        Well op didnt define it but i would assume everyone draws the line at a different place for the purposes of this thought experiment.

        are they bad people for having kids when they knew we would inherit that?

        Thats something between ur parents and god (and by god i dont literaly mean i god i mean whatever morality or personal philosophy they hold themselves to).

        If u want/can go ask them what they think about the idea i recon it would be interesting to hear.
