    Our desire to save everyone

    From the country that posts “You’re about to find out why we can’t afford healthcare” before launching a billion-dollar salvo of over-priced, clumsily engineered rocket bombs.

    letting natural selection run its course

    Like, how does this dipshit think natural selection works? Do you just run the algorithm for an extra 10,000 years and get Human-Plus?

    You illiterate nob. Natural selection doesn’t just stop happening because of modern medicine. Your brain consumes enormous amounts of caloric intact precisely because its vastly more efficient to learn to wash your hands than to hope your hundredth-generational offspring evolves fingers that leak antiseptic.

    The point of modern medicine is to capitalize on that capacity for investigative reasoning. Not to simply lay down and submit to our birthed state like a bunch of instinct-driven bacteria.
