Eugenics was a huge problem throughout many parts of history
in different form and governments have always used stretching the truth or
yellow journalism to get the people behind it. Whether it be just flat out lies
or only giving out partial info that supports their decisions its given many
false impressions of many different people throughout time. Whether it be race,
sex, or disability related its all the same. Even though eugenics hasn’t been
initialized on a big scale in decades some of its thoughts have dropped down
through the cracks and there are people who still feel eugenics is still a very
valid concept. Don’t judge people based on single occurrences, each person has
strengths and weaknesses and defining entire bodies of people based on those is
what caused the problem of eugenics. In the end its all about the kind of
society we want to build and that is one where we don’t want eugenics or any type
of downward judgment of any deviant people.
