I don't think the taboo of eugenics has any particular durability to it. I think it'll flip rather quickly. You'll get places like Eastern Europe, Russia, and China doing it and all of a sudden we'll have to do it to in order to 'remain competitive'.
Weaponizing drones was taboo for about a nanosecond, now we can look forward to a future WWIII with flying robots raining down death from above, all because it was more convenient at the time.
- wpietri 5y agoThat one taboo falls quickly is not proof all of them will. The eugenics taboo has endured for more than a century, which sounds like particular durability to me.
