Designer babies is the start. Like I already believe if you're "selecting" something like your baby's gender, you're fuckin Hitler. But then, my roommate was all, "Well what if you could remove the trait for Huntington's that runs in the family?"

So there's clearly a spectrum of ways that genetic engineering could go.

The most interesting case to me is of He Jianku, who reportedly began studying and modifying human embryos. CIA fear disinfo, or Chinese scientists just marching ahead and setting the new standards of the 21st century?

    Kinda sad that we live in a world where it's easier and more imaginable to just purge people with mental illnesses or physical disabilities than to accommodate them
