boemUN report says world is racing to well past warming limit as carbon emissions rise instead of plunge
Being vegan is the most impactful change that individuals can make.
But we won’t change.
It is totally hopeless.
Not having children is the most impactful individual change one can make, well over going vegan.
this is eugenicist propaganda. also, going vegan has no impact at all.
No it is not. Eugenics is an attempt to improve the genetic quality of a human population.
We are talking about an attempt to stop climate change. We are not trying to “improve” the genetics of human population.
that’s a narrow definition that doesn’t really encompass all the ways in which eugenics has been practiced. frequently, as i have done here, it is used synonymously with genocide. stop practicing genocide.
No. Genocide is murdering people. Genocide is violence against people. Forcing people, against their will to stop existing.
Asking people to reproduce less is asking people (not forcing them) to exercise their own will.
genocide is also propaganda that encourages one segment of the population to cease reproduction.
that is true, but eugenics is something very different
in this case, it’s a synonymous use. they are totally equivalent in this respect.
Braindead take. We don’t need more children to be born into a world of suffering.
We are talking about an attempt to stop climate change
those are the trappings, but the method is bare eugenics
No it is not. Eugenics is a pseudo-science about improvement of genetics. Period.
Trying to avoid climate catastrophe is not about improving genetics.
Eugenics is a pseudo-science about improvement of genetics. Period
no, it’s not, even the wikipedia article we both love disputes this claim plainly.
Trying to avoid climate catastrophe is not about improving genetics.
if the method by which you try to avoid it is eugenicist, then it is.
I’m done.
I am not into bickering for no reason.
i didn’t ask you to say anything in the first place.
Eugenics sounds good at first, but human greed and corruption makes it an incredibly dangerous tool that should probably not be in the hands on anyone
I don’t think eugenics sounds good.
I’ve heard too many people (mostly elderly) speak out for it. It’s definitely a bad idea
