    Yes, and in the case of restrictions on reproduction, I do not see any way to implement that without having that gigantic oppressive infrastructure.

    Also, “benevolent” eugenics is still eugenics, still fascist.

      Getting to “fascist” seems to be your only endgame here. It’s a label. Paved roads and running water are “fascist”.

        Please explain to me how you would go about selecting who can reproduce and who can’t then. I’ve asked this question multiple times and so far none of you “eugenics are good when it favors me” seem to want to answer it.

        Eugenics is about purity of your population. That is a textbook component of fascism, whether you like it or not.
