sounds like this can only end with lobotomies to make their soliders feel nothing and question nothing

“We could find ourselves in a situation where our soldiers, as talented and trained as they are, are facing an unfair fight because another country is willing to say, ‘Hey, guess what, you, male, are a good aviator. You, female, are a good aviator. You’re gonna make the best aviator babies we’ve ever seen and I don’t care that you’re not married,” he said. The other panelists laughed nervously. “That’s a thing. Are they willing to go that extra step that we are not?”

We must not allow those filthy commies to force us into an aviation eugenics gap! strangelove

There needs to be a ban on non-biologists discussing anything related to evolution, genetics, or inheritance because it always ends up in the same dumbass place.

While we're at it, a ban on the military funding any research whatsoever.

What happens when the eugenics baby turns out to be shinji-jokerfied and won't get in the fighter jet (that is obviously also his mother)

So in 20 years you get someone who is I guess more likely to have genetically determined qualities that could help you in some military capacity but it's also far far far from guaranteed, would still take training and stuff and that's a lot for someone who's just gonna fly a plane over a place and drop bombs on it.

Yeah, the famously 100% heritable skill at operating a complex machine. Just a totally brainworms infested idea.

They get so hung up on fucking when it is an incomparably more relevant question hypothetically whether some citizens are made to train from childhood.

They are literally describing the 1998 film Solider. I swear these fkers saw that movie, have probably watched it 50 times and rather than thinking it's a cautionary tale about the US direction toward militarism instead took it as a guidebook.

Movie is worth a watch if you haven't seen it. Has the trainers raising the children like chattel. When one of the 10 year old kids can't keep up during a run, the trainer has him stop then puts him down like a lame race horse. The other children hearing the gunshot after they are out of sight is motivation or something. The main character has flashbacks to various campaigns he fought in and honestly they are battlefields the US military is already foaming at the mouth to start wars on. Scenes like slaughtering Chinese settlements on the moon and planting American flags kinda stuff.

Don't bother with the squeal, it's trash like most from that era and the first movie was only okay not great. The sequel is all about the wholesome eugenics breading program soliders being morally better than the genetically engineered test tube baby soliders. American brained morality.

The point of course of making shit up about other people wanting to do that, is because he himself wants to do it

Maladjusted wasp freaks laundering eugenics thru pointed fingers is an age old tradition

Red-Brown alliance with jordan-eboy-peterson to stop the hypothetical cock milking?

mfw the pilots whose grandparents I selectively bred to be good at flying biplanes suck at piloting jet fighters. Maybe that's the real reason the F35s keep crashing.
