>smart healthy people
we can accomplish half of this
>healthy
a lot of this is genetic so that's doable but its still tough. how many mutations before we kill you in the womb? 1? 2?
>smart
is IQ genetic? is intelligence passed on in DNA? i've know some dumb fucks with brilliant fucking children, and i've known geniuses who birthed retards. you have too. also who decides what
>smart
is. a king? a committee? a legislature? what IQ point do we terminate fetuses at? 100? 110?
i support eugenics too but implementing it is a fucking mess

The message wasn’t “let’s sterilize all the dumb people” it was “let’s not celebrate stupidity.” If you watched the movie when it came out, that was obvious. If you’re an obstinate self-righteous contrarian dipshit whose only self-worth comes from insisting you see things others don’t when in actuality they were never there, then you go on the internet and say it was pro-eugenics

Yes
>i know some dumb fucks with brilliant fucking children,
you know cuckolds and stubborn smart people with retarded beliefs
>and i've known geniuses who birthed retards
because they did drugs (the parent or offspring, intentional or incidental contaminants)
> is. a king? a committee? a legislature? what IQ point do we terminate fetuses at? 100? 110?
Idk why not start somewhere and see what works. Try it in a ghetto where they have 5 generations in 60 years and see how fast their quality of life improves. Do it in several ghettos with different variables and compare

Everyone who watches this movies they are part of the group of the smart people and not another one of the dumbasses.
Really makes you think.

Anyone else besides me think this is kinda a documentary?
>>
>>218309052
i mean, that's because the comedy is reliant on exaggerating the stupidity of the dumb people so that it's lower than most modern stupid people. the joke of the movie is that a completely average intelligence guy is hailed as a genius
>>
>>218309052
Yeah but some of us actually are. As much as we all shit on each other here every time they’ve tried to study the intelligence of social media user bases and 4chan’s in the dataset we win (don’t look this up I’m making it up but it sounds like it might be true)

I just think people will control their own genes at some point. This will result in some negative outcome. But just as good parents teach their children: "every time you make a mistake, you learn something." To ban mistake-making like this, is to ban progress. Never mind that it can't be stopped, regardless. Progress progresses whether you like it or not.

You don't seem to understand how media works. Yes, the message was supposed to be what you say. But intentionally or unintentionally, it conveyed the other message.
In fact it conveyed it much more strongly, since it literally begins with a genetic explanation for it and says that is the cause of people celebrating stupidity.

>>218309052
And somehow this is the most lukewarm take of all
Anyways do you know any actual retards who do or say that? Is it so impossible to imagine that a bunch of triple digit IQ people notice the same thing happening?

How you spot confidence scams: It's much easier to DESTROY than to BUILD something that serves (not "controls/punishes") its most frequent user and lasts. If something sounds too good to be true ("we edit genes to end hereditary diseases"), it probably is
("we're making viruses more virulent, destroying your gene expression to speed up brain disesease to sell Harma products and "care"; also kill without consequences bc we enjoy playing god.")

literally just use the sat for brains, it's good enough proxy. make everyone take it, sterilize anyone who scores in the bottom decile. for healthy i think people usually just mean "free of genetic diseases" which isn't that hard to work out

They are. We could've weeded out stupid and ugly people thousands of years ago. The irony is that sci-fi writers often show authority being in favor of eugenics when they are the main ones who wouldn't benefit from it.
