“Critics note Vining’s involvement with the white supremacist journal Mankind Quarterly and his acceptance of grants from the Pioneer Fund.”
And
“Some studies nonetheless claim to show no evidence for dysgenic effects in human populations.[47][48][49][50] Theories about dysgenic and eugenic effects in human populations have historically been associated with scientific racism.”
Well well well, I’m not subscribed to Mankind Quarterly, but I would like you to know that before the industrial revolution my ancestors (and probably those from everyone reading here) were working them fields and couldn’t read, so let the rednecks reproduce, we’ll be fine. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.

I’m not arguing in favor of eugenics.
I’m saying that a 2 minute opening exposition of a comedy film has no ulterior motive.
Whether or not it was the motive, the result is that it promoted a eugenic idea.
Again, no control over human reproduction is even hinted at. The writers are creating jokes, not nazi propaganda.
Either write a better introduction and post it here or GTFO
