So instead of banning the bad products, do you propose modifying the human genome or pretending that there's no problem at all?

- sojournerc 3y agoThe point is there is not and will never be consensus on what is "bad", so it ultimately is decided by power imbalance rather than some higher moralilty. In a liberal society we allow things we don't like in order to maintain individual freedom as a higher good than "perfect" society. Those who do envision "perfect" society and pursue it with the power of the state are the worst sort of authoritarians, because it's all done "for your own good", no matter what you think.
