I hate to say it, but yeah… I know this smells of eugenetics, but getting stupid out of the gene-pool is not necessarily a bad thing…
Watch the first 5 minutes of the movie “Idiocracy” for a great example of why…
Stupid isn’t genetic. Just like eugenics isn’t a real science.
It’s a hilarious premise for a movie, but a lot of ink has already been spilled to explain that it’s not really how intelligence works…
The thing is, stupid isn’t a gene thing. A set of intelligent parents can have moronic offspring and dumb ones can have intelligent kids. That’s why so many people break through the indoctrination despite their parents best efforts.
I thought there was a genetic component to intelligence.
I’d argue that allowing people to self-select for extinction isn’t eugenics, particularly if all they have to do to avoid it is accept they don’t know everything and listen to the advice of experts.
It is unfortunate that they take others with them.
“Stupid” definitely falls on the nurture side of “nature vs. nurture.” So, it’s not eugenics to want stupid people out of the gene pool. They will nurture stupidity into the next generation not pass on a gene. It is a failure of a society’s education system. The children of stupid people could be raised not-stupid.
