That's...an understatement.

> Everyone who tried it thought they were doing their victims a favor.

No, not everyone who did it thought that they were doing their victims a favor. Quite a lot saw their victims as people who ought to be sacrificed for the good of others, and if they thought they were doing them a favor it was only in not murdering them outright as well as preventing them from reproducing.

Of course, some eugenics practitioners didn't bother avoiding outright murder, e.g., the Nazis.

This is a bit of a tangent off me pointing out someone's suggestion was eugenics. I'm not sure what I'm supposed to take away from this comment. We obviously can't read the minds of eugenics pushers, and very few openly admit their True Aims, so there's not any point trying to litigate it here.
