Bioethicists: Life extension is evil.
Bioethicists: Rendering disabled kids permanently prepubescent? No biggie.> “I’ve been shocked by how the disabled community has reacted to it,” she says. “These people speak of the ‘perspective of the disability community’ as though we are not part of it. It makes us feel disenfranchised by the very organizations that were put in place to protect Jessica and our family.”
Gee, neurotypical physically-abled woman, I can’t imagine why that would be.
> She finally brought it up with her husband, Matt, when Ricky was about 2.
So, you’ve determined with a two-year-old that they’ll almost certainly never be capable of wanting puberty. Gee, that sounds reliable.
> Like Ashley’s parents, she believed that if her daughter had no breasts, she would be less likely to be a target of sexual abuse.
…okay, I can follow the reasoning, but gah.
Why do you think bioethicists think life extension is evil? Obviously there are individual bioethicists who do, but is there a reason to think the majority does?
“ is there a reason to think the majority does?” Not that I know of, I’m just being unfair.
The only reason bioethicists would exist is to express that life extension is evil. If someone does not wish to exert control upon another’s body, they don’t need to make up a profession to write long and elaborate arguments on the topic, they just refrain from using coercion and fraud against them or advocating for the use of such by someone else. Thus, bioethicists commenting on what people do to their own bodies can only have emerged from a desire to prevent, to stop, to crush, to destroy those who dissent against the herd, for no other motivation necessitates their existence, and therefore it is imperative for any self-respecting autonomous human being to scorn dem like the oppressive moochers and parasites they are, feasting on the lifeblood and suffering of innovative value-creators, early adopters, biohackers, and transhumanists.
