It’s like they saw that scene in Idiocracy and took it literally
They literally did
breeding to save mankind from what, round heads and good eyesight?
HA HAHAHA HAAA HAHAHA and I can’t stress this enough HAAAAAAA
But also, aren’t these just autistic people? Of the type we used to call Aspergers?

Out of all the nuttiness of their Wikipedia page, that one stood out to me.
The conceit and egotism of these people is laughable.
Is a complete lack of self awareness heritable? Are they going to breed a race of super clueless whities with bad eyesight?
elite but still need glasses huh?
I’m pretty 1337, but can’t see shit without my glasses.
This couple and really anyone who learned about evolution by watching Idiocracy: if intelligent parents are needed to make intelligent babies, from where did intelligence first arise?
Two fishes fucked and made a deformed fish that liked air more than water. And now I have to “clean the garage” and “not eat all the cheese its”. Fucking ass hole parent fish.
Some motherfucker planted and watered some seeds and now I have to pay taxes. Fuck that guy.
Not intelligent enough for this question.
If human parents are needed to make human babies, from where did humans first arise?
Duh, Adam and Eve obviously! Read a book!
Having worked in public policy for several years, the 26-year-old Londoner had come to an alarming realisation about the future of the UK, the world – and the human species.
She’s 26?
What is “several” defined as here? 2? 3?
Maybe it’s like 1.05 years, but that round up

Well that’s just a fucking trip of dysfunction.
Just that bit is a lot.
If the population declined and it makes the economy do less well, won’t people just have more children like they did the last time the economy was in that state? Every environment has a carrying capacity for the creatures that live in it. It’s not uncommon to see fluctuations above and below that equilibrium point.
Instead of pushing people to ignore the factors that cause the limit in humans, like not wanting or needing more children, maybe find a way to organize society so hitting that limit doesn’t cause massive problems, or try to eliminate some of the factors creating the limit. It’s insanely difficult in our society to have even one child who’s healthy, cared for, and prepared for their adult life while also being personally healthy, prepared for old age, and enjoying the variety of pleasures of existence.Absolutely adore this bit from the screenshot:
which is based on Simone’s personal observations of lions and tigers on a safari trip.
Sad we have no studies on human children. But thankfully its perfectly reasonable for someone on holiday who’s untrained in interpreting big cat behavior to decide whats good for a bunch of animals is good for human kids too.
I just read their wiki page and it is absolutely filled to the brim with crazy wacky shit.
The Collinses do not support transgender health care for youth, but express acceptance for people whom Simone described as “legit trans” as opposed to those who fall into the “trans cult.” Simone opposes allowing transgender students to use bathrooms corresponding to their gender identity and to play on sports teams matching their gender identity.
As a trans woman, this stood out to me. I’m not surprised that they are transphobic, but why make the point about “legit trans” and “trans cult?” I assume they consider “legit trans” to be the tiny percentage of transgender people who are right-wing nuts and the “trans cult” are those who aren’t. Basically they’re just saying “We only support transgender people who want their faces eaten” which is a strange way of phrasing it since usually transphobes tell all of us to go fuck ourselves, including the dumb ones that support the leopards.
It’s probably more like they can’t deny the reality of trans people, but they think that it’s a very tiny minority and the rest are just cultists.
You see this same fallacy with autism. Why are there “suddenly” more autistic kids? It isn’t because vaccines are giving them autism or something like that. It’s because doctors know what to look for to diagnose now.
People fall into this same trap with trans people, because 20 years ago it was extremely rare to meet an out trans person. So, now it looks like they’re suddenly everywhere! What could be the cause? A trans cult recruiting people?!
No, it’s a cultural shift. Damn, people can be stupid sometimes.
That’s a really good point. It’s not an evident thing from my perspective because being transgender is so normal to me that I don’t know if I would have ever even thought about that.
Look up trans medicalist they kind of seem to fit in there.
I know about transmeds, and considering that they think medical transitioning is required, I think it would be weird for a transmed to be against blockers and hrt for kids.

Bla bla managing director bla bla Investor Peter Thiel. OK, I’ve read enough. Yet another Thiel apprentices.
I encourage everyone to read the entire wiki page as well, and it will make sense why they are the way they are.
Read the wiki - They just seem like rich wankers to me.
You’re saying sometimes you can judge a book by its cover?
Oh good I was worried they would be rich and be doing it for entirely monetary reasons

Looks like they both might be genetically predisposed to myopia. Not very elite of them.
Glasses make me look weak. They’re like a wheelchair for the eyes.
Love me some VEEP.
Those inverted commas around ‘elite’ are doing so much work they should probably unionise.
Holy shit is America in for a surprise when the influencers catch up to the European glasses thing
We’ve got fucking bellends walking around like they smashed their faces into a couple of CRT monitors
I’m European and have never seen that, got any examples? And I’m wondering if you’re talking about only the frames or the lenses too? If you’ve got really bad vision you have no choice, and the thicker the lenses the fewer kinds of frames are available. Contact lenses don’t work well for many and there are several reasons why surgery might not be a choice.
I’m talking about the frames, no need to try to be offended on someone else’s behalf, I wasn’t talking about the lenses.
Gigantic and gaudy specs are a thing, sorry you hadn’t noticed
Edit - I’m talking about this phenomenon, seems to be a thing in western Europe at the mo, in affluent circles -
Yeah as someone who can’t wear contacts and won’t do LASIK
Fuck big ass glasses they ain’t cool if they aren’t gonna protect you in a workshop
What are you on about.? Can you show a picture.
We seem to have some sort of natural immunity to that. Whether for good or ill, only time will tell.
Surely they meant to write adopting? Lesbian couples can’t breed.
And two more incestuous generations later you end with something like Elon Musk.
