@Fitzydog it's not like intelligence prevents childhood mortality

all babies are fucking dumb

No, but in vitro genetic editing is a possibility

yes

no but he's right - people in poor health are corellated with being mentally retarded

@Deleted User No reread what i wrote

a weak correlation i'm sure, but one none-the-less

ah?

There is such a thing as 'bad genetics' overall for a person

i think conscious selecting of breeding partners for health and intelligence is better

A higher percentage of mutations in a person

@aradesh We used to do it unconciously

make a culture that we find the most intelligent partner, and have tons of babies

@Fitzydog i'm a good example of bad genetics <:deadass:560215324167897128>

If you were rich, you were smart

Women married up

@aradesh intelligent people have less children

yes

because they work more

this is a problem

Mormons however are the opposite

Because they work more?

The more well off you are, the more kids they have

our most super intelligent people should be waited on hand and foot, and have loads of kids

Because I'm an antinatalist.

@Peyton GTFO

:c

But, think of it this way

antinatalists are just ending their own evolutionary line

The dumb kids are turning into traps and castrating themselves

whereas the rest of the world keep on going

LoL

Fine by me.

Antinatalists are mutants as well

so you're ensuring a world where there are fewer antinatalists

Solves that problem

or rather, where there are fewer people like yourself

If I want a kid, I'll adopt.

That's fine I guess

I couldn't do that

Good on you
