How does it feel, knowing that advanced gene editing will probably become a reality in the near future and everyone will be as handsome/muscular as they want and no one will be special?
How does it feel...
It'll be fine with me. I was meant to be who I was, and how I look. Its my cross to bear and one I bear willingly.
By everyone choosing to look conventionally good, all they do is increase my value as I become more rare and unique.
How does it feel to be Incel that only thinks about this all day, OP?
>near future
can any science anons confrim this?
Everyone won't be able to afford it, and even among those who can, they will still judge each other based on other things. You'll also have black market gene editors and a body mod community that will do all kinds of crazy shit. People will make themselves look like all kinds of creatures.
Even with genetic engineering phenotype will still be affected by both genetics and environmental factors (diet & training).
NEVER
IMPROVE
>the mountain is 6ft 9
jesus christ how tall are those other dudes? 7 foot 4? I wonder if he felt intimidated
I never said that. I just won't change my fundamental DNA. That is a disrespect to my ancestors who fought for millennia to raise and protect their progeny.
Getting rid of that destroys my link to my past. I would be a man without time. Without family. Without identity.
I will make myself the best man I can be given what I have because ultimately happiness isn't determined by what you have or who you are. Its determined by the amount of respect you have for yourself and the eternal struggle you bear.
>tfw Icelandic
>Still a manlet
It's not fair
>big dick thanks to being tall
>dick looks small because I'm tall
Why
You would have to edit the gene data before fertilizing the Ovo
Ah well, I retract my statement now that you've clarified your post.
this is why i dont discourage people from being fat
Sorry I should have been more clear in my previous post. I also was a little too aggressive in defending my position.
Have a good one buddy.
It's alright bro
Genetics itself will be able to be edited. If you want a nordic-looking baby or a Nigerian-looking baby, you can have it.
>Mogged by CRISPR
>injects you with the nigger gene
Hehe...
At this rate i was going to die alone anyway, really doesn't bother me
lol , cas9/crispr is nowhere near being ready and or safe . We may have our genome mapped but we don't really have complete knowledge of how our genes interact with each other . This means if you did it now , you may get a baby that's meant to be 7 foot tall and not know that it's riddled with 99 other diseases.
ill probably be dead before we start making giant testtube mulattos and im thankful for that
By "near future" I meant in under 200 years. And we will make incremental advancements in that time (like being able to manipulate eye color etc.)
The Chinese will be birthing white blue eyed children by year 2030
It's a win-win. The abundance of beautiful, perfectly healthy and fit people lowers their market value and will give facelets/manlets an increased chance to score above their league.
Why should they sleep with ugly people when beautiful people are so readily available?
I fucking never thought of that. Fucking everyone would choose to be a white person.
Unironically hitlers vision would be achieved by the minorities willingness to erase their DNA
7/10 Made me laugh
>I dont want to look good because in 50 years everyone can
That isn't how editing works. This is true. You can have designer babies, but you will still be a slob.
Exception is retroviral editing. Which can target a few genes at most and even in the future will only apply to lethal genetic disorders because is often results in cytokine storm, killing the patient.
In that case , you're right . We can actually choose hair and eye color now (i've seen a documentary) but it is really expensive (not worth)
If we do go down that route, which we probably will, we'll likely be wiped the fuck out. It's basically the same shit as monoculturing crops.
Yes, we're talking about designer babies, not changing the way you look when you're already born. Designer babies are a result of gene editing.
oh ok. so its probably only going to be an issue in lik 20-30 years then? thats fine. plan on having a wife by that time anyway
I leave Sisyphus at the foot of the mountain. One always finds one's burden again. But Sisyphus teaches the higher fidelity that negates the gods and raises rocks. He too concludes that all is well. This universe henceforth without a master seems to him neither sterile nor futile. Each atom of that stone, each mineral flake of that night-filled mountain, in itself, forms a world. The struggle itself toward the heights is enough to fill a man's heart. One must imagine Sisyphus happy
You sound like this somehow
Designer Babies are possible right now
>let all the normies edit themselves
>age of decadence and hedonism makes them weak
>world goes to full shit
>only people equipped to survive are those who choose to live a hard life instead of becoming a genmod-freak
I can't wait until the strong rise up and claim the world as theirs and the weak masses are culled. The wheat must be separated from the chaff.
Its possible now but I think the West will take a few decades to allow.
Third World Hellholes like China or Russia without morale restrictions will be the first to do it and then the West will have to follow.
We will be at least 40 yo old bommers when the first Designer Babies are born (aasumin you are in your early twenties righ now)
Based.
We can all be the little girl?
You came on here trying to look smart and you got BTFO
CRISPR generates lots of random mutations in addition to the desired edit, correct?
>Btfo
Where exactly, my brainlet?
Implying designer babies aren't a result of gene editing, and not grasping the concept that gene editing will be e greatly advanced in the future
I am the Guy who explained it
>small retard
>dignity
Vs
>bigger stronger faster, smarter on every level
>also has dignity because not retarded
None of you will care b/c you'll be dead. Clean, efficient, and powerful gene editing won't be here within our life time.
im 18 now. so yeh. and then the babies will have to be 16-20 before they are any competition anyway. so a good 40 years of runway bros. fuck. i wish i was born a few decades later
