The best argument for eugenics would be for the purposes of raising overall intelligence. Except there’s no way to measure intelligence because it isn’t defined by a number or by the size of an organ, it’s extremely varied in how it’s displayed and used. Any given person has 1-2 areas that they’re intelligent in and deeply understand, whether by talent or by learning and teaching, and they will be completely retarded in the rest. Eugenics completely disregards this, the idea that intelligence and certain traits can be altered and manipulated simply through education and training.
The obsession with birthing a perfect person is genuinely retarded, unless it’s intended for physical features, which still can’t be accurately measured until a person reaches puberty, or even later in their life. Education is by far the best and only method of improving the intelligence of a population.

>Others may say "it’s the education, it’s the education! Race has NOTHING to do with it." but there have been plenty of experiments that prove this to be false.
It’s absolutely the education, have you seen the state of modern schooling. Ancient Greece had better education 2500 years ago than we do today.
