I had no idea. I just used my "wait, no, that's eugenics" heuristic. Now I know!

One day it's "we should save these kids from a difficult life," the next it's "we need symbols to tell undesirables apart," the next it's "we have too many people in camps and nowhere to send them." People like me ended up in those camps next to the Jews, so I'm not keen on the noise that starts the landslide.

There's an unfortunate truth that proponents of equality are going to have to deal with at some point: we are biologically different, to greater or lesser degrees.

That's a fact. And it's only going to be more of a fact the deeper we dig into our genetic code.

But it's how we respond to and deal with that that determines whether we commit good or evil.

> that proponents of equality are going to have to deal with

We both know that will never happen. They’ll never “deal with” the flaws in their religion, they’ll just ignore it like all the others do.

I have more optimism. Dogmas are hard to cast aside, but gradually things progress forward.
