Controversial November: Forced sterilization: prevention for the good future or crime against humanitysteemCreated with Sketch.

This is a response to the Question posited in this post: Forced sterilization: prevention for the good future or crime against humanity?, by @milkbox.info.

First, let me say that the Project Milkbox's goals are laudatory, basically a crypto-funded hub for combating human and animal trafficking. Good on them. 💕

Now for the answers,

Japan, the United States and especially Germany, implemented this practice with the intention of avoiding the spread of hereditary health problems: disabilities, mental retardation, compromising genetic conditions. In this way, improving the health status of their breeds. Do you think that, in this sense, it is correct? How do you see it from the ethical-moral point of view?

I honestly believe that Eugenics is built on a flawed premise. Evolution does not work by picking winners and losers, it works (essentially) via throwing everything at a wall (physics) and seeing what sticks. To try to control evolution in this specific manner, is to undermine its greatest strength: wild, untamed diversity. Our understanding of genomic processes is woefully unsophisticated to attempt applications at the scale that Eugenics would require in order to be effective.

Furthermore, imagine that there was one nagging gene that was bred out of the populace in this manner, and due to random circumstance, it became utterly crucial to the survival of the species at some point later on. I'm certain the kneejerk response of a civilization based on eugenics would be to just bioengineer a fix, maybe jam that gene back in, wait a few generations, and see if it works... then determine the side-effects, then re-engineer all over again.

This is absolute folly. This is stupid beyond belief, and in fact, blasphemous at the scale required to make it work. There's a big goddamn difference between GMO food-sources and damning your species on a hunch.

In countries such as Mexico and Peru, it has been tried to persuade some inhabitants to practice sterilization in exchange for food and improvements in health care conditions such as the creation of hospitals. There are women who accept these measures. In this case, can it also be considered forced sterilization?

Yes. While technically, those ladies are given a "Choice" I have no doubt that they are driven via economic means to a place where not accepting sterilization is suicidal. Effectively the same as a sword-point religious conversion, eg: Obey or starve.

Do you consider it as a crime against humanity?

I consider this a crime against Reality, humanity, and the gods.

How would you help to achieve the benevolent objectives of these nations without committing this act?

There are no benevolent objectives for these nations. They want money, plain and simple. They literally consider their populations to be livestock.

Do you think eugenics has a valid reason?

In a perfect economic model; wherein all were cared for, Life was considered anything more than a means of producing capital, and people behaved with a modicum of decency, it could possibly be considered to have a loving motive.

This world does not subscribe to that economic model. The World of Rex Mundi Man subscribes to a culture of convenience above all else. Much to our detriment.

Do you think this measure should be applied to both men and women?

I don't think this measure should be applied to anyone. Fair is Fair.

Suppose you have a relative with some kind of hereditary compromising condition, would you submit them to this method? Taking into account that there is the possibility of reproducing.

Absolutely not.

Do you think this practice is against the rights of women?

I consider this practice to the blasphemy against all Reality, as stated above. But given the architecture of our reproductive processes, wherein one very happy human male could easily sire thousands of children; the most efficient means of producing this hideous goal would be to sterilize females.

Let me give you an example. If you want to control the stray cat population, you don't try to kill them, cause they will out-breed you, plain and simple. Instead, you take a female, spay her, then release her back into the wild. Males will hang around for weeks waiting for her to go into heat, and thereby not be spending that time making babies.

I know this for a fact, because my sweet queen The MoMo has been spayed, and the neighborhood filled up with boys pretty quickly. The local rodent population has plummeted.

What works for cats, is what will work for humans. And because our economies are so cost-conscious, this is -exactly- how such an industry (for it would truly become an industry) would function. Women will be targeted without question. You've already provided anecdotes of how Mexico handles this process.

So to sum up, forced sterilization and eugenics are monstrous, blasphemous, foolish strategies that will fail spectacularly over the course of time; serving only the whim of certain elites, devaluing everything Righteous about our species, and will damn well earn a planetary heel-stomp from my Aunt Lili, who does not take such things lightly.

Grace to the Gracious,

Everything needed to be said is right here.

I consider this a crime against Reality, Humanity, and the gods.

So Say We All!!

Thanks for a great read my friend, I love how your brain works 😍

This is done for the purpose of fallen ones
