    ??? Eugenics is the opposite of healthcare.

    Eugenics means letting the weak die- or outright killing them.

      Eugenics can be disguised has health care because a doctor can claim that it is being to done to make humans stronger, live longer, or develop new abilities, and if people are killed in the process, ok, that’s the cost of designing a better human specie. It’s too bad that people don’t have at least 3 years of learning the details of what Josef Mengele did to his patients.

        That’s not the definition of eugenics. Eugenics is the study of improving humans through breeding, not medicine.

        Mengele did horrific human experiments that weren’t related to eugenics at all.
