Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

That couple update: That couple are being platformed again, this time on the Australian Broadcasting Corporation.
Not that we're going to tell you what the accusations were about, we're serious reporters after all, we'll just take Egghead Jr's word for it.
It’s not eugenics, it’s just selecting for Good Genes!!! Such as skull bigger
Apparently there is a belief in tech-weirdo land that having a baby with a c-section means a bigger brain, and therefore higher IQ
"And then after the apocalypse the techbro families died out because their children had heads too big to be born without a surgeon."
Or how all the pronatalist events they frequent seem to be accidentally crawling with scientific racists and great replacement types.
If anything they might be trying to pull a motte-and-bailey by claiming they are not technically eugenicists, just normal far right weirdoes with a pronounced interest in lineages and IQ, a combination that famously never led to anything bad happening once it entered the mainstream.
