  • You think a person’s worth is tied to their genes. Pretty yuck. I disagreed and explained how.

    For the record I was calling YOU out for linking a person to their genes, just not directly, trying to be courteous to the conversation.

    Keep replying now, and you’re just slapfighting. Not worth it. I said in the last comment our positions are well known and the conversation is functionally concluded.

    I mean if it’s a damaged or failed it’s a bad gene. It caused ms!

    It’s not shitting on a person, it’s discussing a condition.

    I can understand that discussion can lead to eugenics style thoughts.

    “Oh that person has tons of bad genes, they therefore are bad”. That’s wrong though, a person can have a super fucked up body but it doesn’t change their value or goodness.

    When discussing a condition, the genes that improve or cause that condition can be described as good or bad.

    Context matters.
