The only person in this thread in favor of eugenics is Paulg. Not really known for being a progressive.

I quoted the relevant section .... the section where his ideas should be accepted and those who do not must have some irrational bias ... just like Gore sold his ideas



Strange, then, that the quotation I provided you pretty much discounts everything you are saying. The author is quite explicit in stating their intentions, and what they do not support. I'm not really sure why you are talking about Al Gore - I guess when you don't have any argument, you have to fall back on the old favourites to push your point.

If you want to read this article as someone advocating for a government-enforced eugenics program, I guess there's nothing I can do to stop you. Enjoy crazytown while you are there.

I know its crazy, but i feel like there's some sort of distinction between advocating voluntary genetic modification of human beings to change the way humans interact with their environment, and advocating the sterilization of the mentally ill and other "undesirable" populations.
