God dammit! I accidentally hit paste and "save" before I realized it, which produced a weird comment which I had to find and delete.

I'll definitely check the book out!

I am in my late teens, very left-leaning. I was a trans ally originally. I was pretty apathetic - I didn't see what was wrong with them existing.

But, then, I found r/genderCritical. Just lurked there. I began to see the horrors of the trans cult! I'm glad that I'm on this side now.

This place saved me.

Here's the difference: Eugenics can have a far larger effect. What if we got rid of a group that we considered undesirable (such as autistic people), but later it turned out they weren't? Or we killed people subject to a condition that we thought was genetic but wasn't? We would ruin a lot of lives for no good reason. Additionally, eugenics, while not inherently racist, is a tool that can be easily used to justify racism. I'd argue that deciding who reproduces and who doesn't isn't something that the government should be able to do, because of all possible abuse.

Additionally, the main difference is that theft and murder are things that you do. Eugenics is based on who you are. We can decide what deeds are good and bad to SOME extent, but we can't decide what people are good or bad.

I'm just saying that CHAZ isn't actually a serious threat to anything in America. I'm not contradicting anything that you're saying.

That's because nobody likes socialism. The only way to have a government that nobody likes it to make it authoritarian. If the majority of the world just gave socialism a chance (like they did in Europe), it would work out.

Honestly, about eugenics... who are we to determine what's immoral? If eugenics was implemented when "being black" or "being gay" or "being trans" was still considered a mental illness or something, your parents would have been sterilized - you're trans (I'm assuming, for the sake of the argument)! Whatever we determine "wrong", if we use eugenics to suppress it, we'll end up on the wrong side of history.

And... seriously? CHAZ is a communist terrorist movement? What?

Also, China isn't actually communist. It's a capitalist country with some social programs. It's also authoritarian, and THAT is its problem.

Um... no. None of those things are trans things. You're just a really feminine cis guy.
