When you throw out words like "fan of eugenics" it kinda weakens your case "skaffen-amtiskaw", especially since you, yourself, are a pen name. I actually know a bit of history about what "fans of eugenics" have done and do not take kindly to the word being used lightly.
The argument cannot be presented like this. I couldn't do it myself either; it's an important matter. I mean, we have something some people think is supremely dangerous & you want folks to try to figure out twitter threads and screenshots? That is not a world anyone should want.

Zeynep, this isn't fair. You're asking us to do the labor of presenting this argument to you in a way you find palatable before you'll consider it. That's not necessarily bad, but then at least say you're going to *reserve judgement* for now as a show of good faith.

Right now I feel like if I go through and prep the post you want, you'd ignore it anyways because you've made up your mind. Folks are sympathetic to your request for a directly constructed narrative. But right after asking for it, you undermine the request.
