    We think similarly. Autism makes life difficult. I think scanning for defective genes early in pregnancy is worthwhile to avoid life destroying issues.

    Of course autism has a scale of sorts, you can still live somewhat normally, but it sure as hell doesn’t feel beneficial

      My life is hard, therefore I am okay with eugenics

      Yeah righto, mate. Sucks for you, but maybe we should just make life easier for the disabled instead of preventing us from existing entirely. Just a thought.

        If you were never born then no harm no foul. Nobody is suggesting purging the living.

          Yeah sure, but when people single out particular demographics as being somehow less deserving of life, people within those demographics who don’t hate their lives tend to get pissy about it for some reason. Go figure.
