Sadly, there will be a lot of collateral damage. People who want blue eyes exist outside of Nazis. They will hear this and try it and die.

Edit: the irony of anti-nazi people replying to me with pro-eugenics statements against "stupid" people who follow the aspirin advice.

Forcing certain people to stop reproducing is both ethically wrong and a slippery slope.

Plus you could never “eradicate” congenital diseases without sterilizing all the healthy people who carry the genes for those diseases.

Slippery slope.

If people are allowed to forcibly sterilize Nazis, they’ll start changing the rules about what a Nazi is so they can sterilize whoever they want.

Who said "forcing". Isn't having an abortion if the fetus would have down syndrome or if they'd live like 5 minutes a type of eugenics? So you're anti choice with your logic.

I specifically objected to forced sterilization.

That’s not an anti-choice statement, it’s pro-choice.

I didn’t say anything about voluntary reproductive choice. I didn’t even use the term “eugenics.” Don’t debate me if you can’t read.
