            You want parents to bring a person into the world knowing they they are destined for a horrible early death?

            Just cause you think a fetus is a person. Fuck off.

            Let's go to the extreme, you want the BLUE EYES. BLUE EYES. Literal nazi shit.

            Should the government step in and say whoa, that's racist, so we are going to force you to carry a baby to term? WHY? Who does that help at all?

            Real eugenics is a social policy, usually forced on minorities or vulnerable groups by a government. But everyone has the right to do "eugenics" on their own womb. I might think they're dumb as dog shit, but there's no fucking way I'm gonna let that turn me into an anti-abortion freak.

                What about selecting for IQ? What about aborting a EMBRYO with Down’s?

                This isn't up to the cops.

                But I heard arguments, where a person will advocate for abortion but then advocate against personal choice when that choice is to choose an embryo with a specific trait.

                Yes, that's stupid as fuck.

                for wanting their children to have a better life

                I said blue eye selection is dumb as dog shit, not height or whatever.

                If you're enough of a nerd to select for height or whatever, and you had 3 abortions when the first 3 turned out to be short kings and queens, I still can't force you to abort the tall one.

                Genetic engineering is a whole different ball game, by the way, and if you have a baby with uh, telekenesis or whatever, there's an argument for sterilizing them and giving them free unlimited en vitro therapy where we edit the modified genes of their kids back to normal. Imagine Nazis except their superiority basically isn't even delusional.
