I’m sorry, but that’s not about pro-communism and anti-communism. You know Russia is no longer a communist country, right? That’s about pro-war and anti-war. Blaming Ukraine for the start of the war and following genocide (or denying that genocide happening) is one of the most absurd and dangerous fakes created by Russian propaganda and it deserves to be challenged.

That the echo chamber lemmy.ml where tankies could post the most insane pro-dictator bullshit unchallenged finally gets challenged from the outside. My first interaction with lemmy was ruined by encountering a deranged post from there.

That’s quite a common thing on lemmy.ml servers. Glad their hole started being recommended to people in other communities to average reactions.

As the world is right now, we live is “gattaca-lite”. Your success in life depends on genetical characteristics that you got at conception by pure luck. You can’t (or less likely to with the same amount of effort) become a pilot with poor vision, a musician with serious disorder of hearing, a scientist or engineer with learning difficulties, an actor with some forms of autism. Parental wealth and health also have impact on your congenital stats.

If anything, genetic intervention will make the society more equal. Yes, it would be nice if every parent would have access to this for free, and current influence of bad genetics would be eliminated, but even if in first years of this tech being developed only kids of rich will be enhanced, this advantage will not be more or less deserved than random chance we currently have.
