What other good can exist than that which expands the only known form of life that has power to delay/counteract entropic forces? Only intelligent life seems to be aware that life even exists.

Some policies can be tough (require more steps) to demonstrate their higher survival value, but most don’t require being a rocket surgeon or a brain scientist. Island morality (whatever extends life on a deserted island for the most people for the long-term) looks to be a useful micropropertarian guide to develop macropropertarian policy.

Example: 80 IQ mother of 5 can’t afford to feed her babies but wants another baby

Dysgenic left argument typically assumes that further expansion of intelligent life in the universe isn’t necessary, that we can feed endlessly using extant food. It takes for granted a level of food/resource stability/surplus that it doesn’t contribute to.

Eugenic right wants symbiosis, mutually beneficial trade. What do we get for feeding someone who does not contribute to our global “island’s” resource surplus? A big nothing burger for ourselves.

We can also point to traditions that increased the survival of the people who followed them, and at least have data points that show that an anticipated good has indeed been a past outcome for a disputed policy.

We can’t point to any cultures that normalized children being sexualized at a very early age, or encouraged to be gay, or transgender, for instance, and showing positive results. We can’t point to *any* cultures that ever existed doing so, so on that policy, we have a whole world of cultures who were, in practice, uniformly against such policies, that continue to expand in the absence of that desired policy.

We can’t point to any culture that disarmed the bulk of their population, and successfully expanded their *own* culture afterwards.

Some policies have been “scientifically tested” and failed. Dysgenic leftists are therefore more like alchemists and conspiracy theorists who offer no evidence for their arguments.
