      It’s avoiding bad outcomes. Babies from closely related people often have problems. Practically every culture has a method of avoiding close relatives breeding

      Eugenics is about breeding for desirable qualities, a eugenicist’s ideal person still couldn’t make good kids with a close relative

        Avoiding bad genetics is desirable. Just because it’s normal doesn’t mean it isn’t eugenics
