    Most people think that Eugenics are a bad idea even if you don’t name it, which is the opposite of people actually agreeing with the ideas behind Marxism without knowing its Marxism.

      but that’s not what the comment said?

      Lots of people promote eugenics

      people sometimes end up accidentally talking themselves into eugenics and promoting eugenics before somebody points out that they’re talking about eugenics

        But it is what the comment said. It’s saying that people promote eugenics without realizing it. They do so by talking about the mechanics of eugenics without naming them.

          i’m baffled as to what’s going on here

          • if you describe the mechanics of eugenics, people like the idea
          • if you label the mechanics of eugenics as eugenics, people do not like the idea

          versus

          • if you describe the mechanics of marxism, people like the idea
          • if you label the mechanics of marxism as marxism, people do not like the idea

            Your confusion comes from the fact that you assume most people like the mechanics of eugenics. If that’s the sort of crowd you hang out with, then you may be associating with fascists.
