    Most of us are equipped for rape and murder, but we don’t have a right to it.

        “because that would be eugenics” is not an explanation. You’re just asserting that eugenics is bad, which is begging the question – this is a post about the ethics of eugenics. You can’t just come in and say “eugenics is bad because it’s eugenics.”

        Anyway, I don’t think anyone is calling China’s former One Child Policy eugenics.

          Thats because the one child policy was coerced by the IVF in order for China to survive during a period of economic isolation, more so the one child policy only applied to han Chinese, and many still choose to have children, it wasn’t a ban on having extra children, they where just heavily disincentivized and given access too birth control.

          Literally banning who can have sex would be eugenics yes
