Population control and eugenics aren't the same thing. I suspect Gates is interested in population control. Eugenics is something else, it is about improving the quality of humanity. So for example, imagine that there would be some way to get stupid people to voluntarily not reproduce. Wouldn't this be a good thing? This is the kind of eugenics that I would support.

The problem is that Gates African actions have turned nature on its head. Sick babies now live and reproduce. More and more poor people are alive thanks to Gates saving lives but not teaching birth control, or offering free vasectomies to underclass third world people.

Babies reproduce? Since when?

Gates is responsible for a lot of polio deaths, sterilizations, and deaths in other categories, mostly related to vaccines. He's no savior, any more than Lucifer is.
