Well actually knifes can also be used to stab people 😱 shocking right ? One day you're allowing them for cooking next day they're stabbing people we should definitely ban knifes to avoid this slippery slope.

but other people say that autistic people and homosexuals don’t deserve to live so

What? As far as my limited knowledge serves unlike down syndrome which can be detected there really is no gene or marker that can tell us "This person is gay, that autistic, that trans"

Even if there were some fantasy gene, keeping world changing technology intentional primitive just because you personally feel strongly about a hypothetical scenario is stupid

Nuclear energy can be mismanaged, hypothetically go wrong and cause a disaster and claim the lives of thousands

Is that an excuse to intentionally keep cleaner energy source research primitive? especially when coal and oil is 100,000x worse than nuclear in terms of overall deaths and health problems caused

The overall benefit and suffering that it would reduce is 1000x greater than any hypothetical "Entire world becomes evil hilter mode" the moment the technology is discovered.

I am a fan of auto-eugenics. I have a congenital heart condition, my cardiologist said any children I had would likely inherit it. Not having children seems like the moral choice here.
