they’re really just spitballing genocide huh
So… Trump voters?
They could start with Trump and Musk.
Too late, the bastards have already bred.
They’re just so eager to pull their masks off, like. Like, there is only so much algorithm manipulation can do to obscure observable reality from their audience.
They tried to rig the game but you can’t fake influence
Or fake social security checks going through when some idiot breaks the COBOL code that runs federal payments system.
Ah, the White Nationalism to Eugenics to Nazism pipeline is alive and well, it seems.
Less of a pipeline and more of… a fetid pool of shit
"Abstract - The first negative eugenic measure passed by the Hitler regime in July 1933 was the forced sterilization law, which primarily targeted neuropsychiatric patients with “feeble mindedness,” schizophrenia, and epilepsy. Also included were Huntington’s chorea, bipolar disorder, and alcoholism, along with other congenital defects.” - https://academic.oup.com/book/40410/chapter-abstract/347295636
I know of no one who has Huntingtons who want to have kids…
Yeah, I paused on that one. It shouldn’t be forced, but it should be encouraged. No loving parent would want to give that to a child and the odds are just so high.
“Parents face choice of having children with Huntington’s Disease” - https://www.newsnationnow.com/health/parents-face-choice-of-having-children-with-huntingtons-disease/
You don’t get to make that choice.
Didn’t say that I did. But most folks with it know how awful and don’t wish it on their children. Tell me, how many folks have you worked with who have/had HD?
I’m not speaking out my arse here.
Let me be clear, I think that the including of HD in this list is to muddy the waters. This is not a genuine concern.
This is about control and eugenics.
“Pay smart people to have more kids, disincentivize stupid people from having kids."
Why?
Dingledorf assumes smart people breed smart kids and stupid people breed stupid kids?
Title of article should be “Stupid Person makes Stupid Assumptions”
More like “known nazi repeats ancient nazi talking points about eugenics”
assumes smart people breed smart kids and stupid people breed stupid kids
From a “nature + nurture” point of view in a primitive world, it can be argued that people who strike the combo, are “more likely” to both pass on their own genetic predisposition, and be “more prepared” to raise their kids up to a similar standard.
In a modern world though, I’d still rather have professional teachers take care of the nurture part, and shut up about nature at least until someone can unequivocally point to the “smartness genes”… at which point I’d ask for a GMO cat with a 200 IQ, yay!
Further, assuming intelligence is measurable by an IQ test.
Arguably… kind of, but never with a single number.
From a multidimensional intersectional hypothesis of intelligence point of view, the “IQ” should be a series of several hundred measurements; a single number is meaningless. Even then, we still lack a bottom-up theory of intelligence, so all tests are just sociological comparisons as related to a population at a given moment in time.
There are indications that some “basic capability for developing problem solving skills” may exist, but we’re nowhere close to even defining it, much less measuring it.
Somewhat ironically, as we’ve developed AI systems… the only way to train them, has been to use neural networks and a “spray and pray” approach with extra steps, making them into 99% black boxes… so now we can “reproduce some behaviors associated with intelligence”, without being that much closer to understanding it 😆
“Low IQ Person Requests Sterilisation”
Not surprised, but didn’t expect to see this quite this early into the Trump regime.

I take it he’s at the front of the queue.
It’s time for to get my home a 12 gauge
We’re going straight to eugenics in under a month? Jesus fuck.
How do they have the courage to say this? Them and their biggest supporters will be the first on the list
Look at the article, scroll down about half way and look at Carlson’s face (I know that’s a painful thought but just humour me) then tell me you didn’t burst out laughing.
Nah, Fucker Carlson just makes me gag. So, I didn’t burst out laughing …
How long until the return of phrenology?
First you need the baseball bat phase … where they beat each other over the head to produce enough bumps so that the phrenologists can analyze them.
No, altering the personality by adding bumps is retrophrenology.
At this rate?
Probably next Tuesday.
Not the type of speed run I was hoping for :-/
Destroy the USA any% run
Oh boy.
Here’s the “useless eaters” phase!
