>so was legal homosexuality not that far ago Which is precisely the point. Mandating eugenics inevitably harms the out groups. The definition of "birth defect" is highly cultural and you will be imposing your definition on others. You might be comfortable saying that a cleft palate is defect , but what about down syndrom, autism, bipolar disorder, deafness, gender disphoria, below average intelligence etc? There is no easy place to draw the line and even a conservatively drawn line will means extinction for whole groups of people. That is such a drastic choice that of it is to be made, it must happen organically through collective individual choices not an autocratic mandate. Doing it the later way is simply Evil, and I don't use that word for many things. Even the former way carries risks and shouldn't be taken lightly.
