My anti-dysgenics program? I am literally just talking about removing rules making IVF selection illegal, and state funding it. This is already the norm in e.g. Iceland and Denmark, but e.g. German and Swedish regulations are strict. No need to try to make things sound ominous.

Did you ever provide data on this point? IVF is such a tiny number of pregnancies that only a few ubermenchen would ensue.

Emil O W Kirkegaard @KirkegaardEmilHopefully, we don't have to wait till 2040! In Denmark, 8% of babies in 2016 were born thru IVF. 8%! https://qz.com/677335/by-the-year-2040-embryo-selection-will-replace-sex-as-the-way-most-of-us-make-babies/ … Danish source: https://sundhedsdatastyrelsen.dk/da/tal-og-analyser/analyser-og-rapporter/andre-analyser-og-rapporter/assisteret-reproduktion …1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

Further presuming that not all IVF babies will be selected for their master race-ness, how would, say, a cohort of 25% IVF super babies save the world? They’d still have to live in a world inhabited by us untermenchen.

Yes, what kind of influence have the top 25% of a society ever had.

We already live in a world with a genetic elite. There is nothing new in this ivf except making faster progress. Imagine if the world's top scientists were much smarter, that's where we are going.

This sounds like dialogue from one of the poorer-quality James Bond films.

So Emil, did you actually author the post on child molesters? If so, what was your intent?

This was the way I interpreted it, though you did do it clumsily, Emil! How do you counter the allegations of racism that people are accusing you of? Have you written anything up about it? Some people keep a ready made file like Sam Harris.

I don't think it's a productive use of time to discuss whether someone is racist. The word lacks clear meaning, see:http://slatestarcodex.com/2017/06/21/against-murderism/ …

Thanks for updating the record and I will take a look. I am not a fan of others telling me what to think about another person, so I will read this. I certainly hope you are not the person who has been described tho.
