As someone with debilitating mental illness that runs in my family, I am all in favor of eugenics and anyone who thinks the mentally ill should be free to breed and create more miserable mentally ill people should themselves be sterilized and lobotomized as well.

Abortion is the only legal form of eugenics we have left.
It’s not about hate. Stop whining about muh poor downies. In what world is it bad to get rid of mental defectives? Iceland basic eliminated it through abortion and that’s wonderful
I think that, with prosthetics, we can soon allow people with crippled bodies to have enjoyable and fulfilling lives. The problem lies with mentally defective people, and people with extremely harmful genetic mutations that can spread to the rest of the gene pool. I don't support killing people, but i do support sterilizing them and aborting downie babies.
eugenics can be voluntary and not state mandated/dystopian
I support both (but eugenics not in the sense of killing all the "degenerates" but kind of what you say here). So you aren't the only one.
Hotwheels has written an article in support of eugenics. He thinks that people with conditions like his own (incredibly painful and hereditary) should be paid by the state to get sterilized.
Everyone should be sterilized, and natural reproduction abolished completely the moment we have access to working artificial wombs.
Not to mention artificial intelligence, which will obsolete biological reproduction of unmodified humans entirely
why
That's kinda different though, abortion should be the mother's choice, what OP is advocating is that we take actual living children/adults with retardation and kill them.
Basically this, it'll be up to the community. SOMEBODY has to take care of them. The way I see it: if you have a child with an intellectual disability that renders them in need of assistance for life, then you should be the one who has to take care of them. This also fits in with my anti-natalist viewpoint: you are directly responsible for causing that child suffering, so you, as the parent, must make reparations. You knew the risk, you took the chance. Made your bed, now lie in it.
