if “science” only refers to what’s currently believed then it has no history; it’s a thin line of apparent lone geniuses rather than a socially and culturally embedded activity that has grown, changed and absorbed and lost elements over time. And everyone doing it now is Darwin, Einstein or Galileo

and then, perhaps, “the problem with eugenics back then was that they dehumanized the wrong set of traits” doesn’t sound so compelling

discussed this in seminar yesterday, albeit with reference to “race science” generally. If you understand science as a historical phenomenon then the question is what was science then, not whether it would count as science now, and the implication is that what science is now is not forever, either
1. Historically, eugenics was not a pseudoscience. It was *science* Almost every scientist, social scientist, academic, etc. believed in the validity of eugenics. You would have to search far & wide to find a scientist that didn't believe in some form of it. They taught it in college!

They did this through things like eugenic marriage laws, better baby contests, and fitter family contests. Some of this is certainly about preventing disease, but most of it is about preserving & supporting white supremacy. Only white protestant babies, for example, could win a better baby contest.

More commonly, American eugenicists believed in what some scholars call "positive eugenics." Not "positive" as in "good," but rather encouraging the "right" people to have more babies and trying to encourage the "right" genetic traits to be passed down.

Others were even worse! Some people I study advocated for what they called "eugenic euthanasia," or killing people who could not support themselves because of medical conditions. Many eugenicists disagreed with both of these!

2. Focusing on the where I said scientists & others believed in "some form of eugenics." That's key to another problem with OPs post. Eugenicists had a WIDE spectrum of eugenic beliefs & often disagreed! Some eugenicists believed in OPs version: forced & coerced sterilization.

NOW, it's a pseudoscience because it's been debunked & is no longer mainstream scientific thinking. Calling historical eugenics a pseudoscience lets science & scientists of the past off the hook (Also, PS is more of a modern-day term. We had terms like "quackery" but eugenics was not that)

When people pay in cash at shows that money literally buys my groceries. I don’t put it in the bank I just pay cash for all my food, it’s great. Direct action. That 20 bucks you gave me is going straight to winco in a few days and ima turn it into bananas and bagels.
Shopping small is meaningful!

Everyone saying “monster fuckee” has no idea what they’re talking about, that clearly implies getting fucked by a monster. Which is also what “monster fucker” broadly means too. This is the root of my frustrations. There is no winning for beasts such as myself.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

Y'know the sad thing is, this is probably no better or worse than the particular humans that would otherwise be doing this, because they tend to have the same problems with distinguishing between non-white people.
And it's a highly tolerated issue because of white supremacy.
