Research Highlights: In a Phase 1, first-in-human trial, a one-time infusion of an investigational CRISPR-Cas9 therapy targeting angiopoietin-like protein 3 (ANGPTL3) was safe and reduced LDL cholesterol by nearly 50% and reduced triglycerides by...
Allowed, sure, just don’t think it’s a good idea to completely change who you are. I want humans to be recognizable as such. I’m more worried about what parents will be doing to their children, that’s where the eugenics shit becomes a problem. Getting rid of “undesirable” traits and whatnot.
Individuals with autism and other differences deserve to exist in the future. My brother and I were born with autism, my brother was born with much higher support needs. Yes, there can be challenges, of course there are. But he’s happy enough, and I’m not sure he would be happier as a neurotypical. My parents? Well, they might’ve preferred he not be.
Personally, I’d never choose to born without my autism or ADHD, because it’s arguably a part of who I am. If I was born without either, my life would be unrecognizable.
Would I choose to be born with Down Syndrome? I don’t know. I’ve never had it. I might’ve been a happier person. Might’ve had way worse of a life.
I’d ask some people with it if they’d rather been born without it. Is it not immoral to remove a potential part of their being without their consent?
Let me be clear, I’m sure that plenty of both groups would prefer to have never had it. A majority, I don’t know, not sure any surveys or studies have been done on the matter. Not sure there’s any way to prove that the issues on either side outweigh the other.
On the discrimination, don’t you think that plenty of people will be doing this because of their prejudices?
Also, the original question WAS just a question. It was a bit suggestive, my apologies. I was a bit tired.
I believe in bodily autonomy. People should be able to do whatever they want to their own body.

Some people are way too attached to their disabilities.
Would you prefer that autistics and those with down syndrome cease to exist?
How do you feel about NIPT tests and ultrasounds?

Removing mental and physical developmental issues from future generations; yes I personally would prefer that ceases to exist.
Or are you in bad faith trying to equate that with taking people currently alive and executing them, because that is far from the same thing.
