to be extremely clear, eugenics is morally wrong and disgusting.

Anytime I hear about a study of a scientific study of social problem black people (or any minority group) face. I don’t have any good examples off hand, but it’s shit like studying “the psychology of poverty” or whatever rather than studying the social, economic, and material environments in which that mind is developed. Also any sort of “outcome disparity” that doesn’t look at any of the conditions of the people. It’s all so weirdly “good stock” vs. “bad stock” to me. It fit so nicely into the individuated approach of liberalism. That sort of determinism just tries to make it “okay” that the othered group suffers cause they just built to suffer or whatever. It’s the justification of hate with extra steps.

Rich kids save more money than poor kids, and have better delayed reward patience than poor kids. Rich kids spend more time with family. Study shows that kids practicing horseback riding and polo are 90% more likely to own their daddy’s company when they grow up. Ugh.

Exactly dude. It’s just so fuckin’ gross. Trying to use their studies to justify bad conditions for people is just so messed up.
