not really… identifying and/or ruling out genetic origins of diseases isn’t racism.
my moral objection to this is: we shouldn’t be scanning and storing hitler’s dna; that’s how you end up with Hitler clones.
Would a Hitler clone be morally culpable of someone else's actions?
not exactly, but it should still be killed as quickly as possible
Wouldn't that make you an immoral monster who "should still be killed as quickly as possible"?
oh, you’re a silly one, aren’t you?
Maybe if logical consistency is silly. You argued in favor of killing someone unjustifiably. Moral principles mean nothing to you?
it’s not unjustifiable to kill a clone of hitler, but i’m not going to break it down for you, silly billy
I don't think you've even broken it down to yourself. Killing a person who hasn't done anything wrong is inherently immoral. It's basic logic & moral reasoning.
you keep trying, but once again:
no, i am not going to explain to you why i believe hitler clone should not be allowed to live.
i have broken it down to myself, it’s clearly pointless here.
and there’s NOTHING basic about the morality of what to do with a hitler clone, so get over yourself… ya silly bastard
Nah, brah. It's settled: you don't explain it because you can't & simply lack moral principles. The only one being "silly" about it is you.
there’s no way i would ever take you seriously, silly bitch
The sort that would want a Hitler clone would be happy with a direwolf-style pseudo-clone with good marketing.
