genetically enhanced human species
Literal eugenics. Is there really no point at which guys like this look in mirror ad go “are we the baddies?”
I don’t think there’s anything fundamentally wrong with eugenics. Screening for genetic diseases before birth is eugenics, selecting the best embryos for ivf is eugenics. Believing that people with severe genetic disabilities should be counseled before conceiving is eugenics as well.
The issue is the way it’s done and the reason for it.
Agree. Point well made.

Anyone from Australia knows we already fucked the shit out that country. It’s now mostly just a big hole where a pyramid scheme used to be.
…oh, so now rich people are just openly doing comic book supervillain shit. Ok.
Was this not the plot of the very first Farcry game?
to create a fortified apocalypse bunker state,
It exists and it’s called Switzerland.
hey, who doesn’t want a bunker on a private pacific island?
Was Caroline Ellison one of the initial batch of experiments? Combining naked molerat and human dna?
