Observing, measuring, and recognizing the effects of behavior upon reproductive fitness is not “Eugenics”.

Yes, I know it is such a fine and lofty intellectual ideal and the participants will argue incessantly that they aren't practicing eugenics (after all, eugenics has such negative connotations).

And then one day, one of these fine, upstanding people who observe, measure and reproductive fitness will reach the conclusion that, "Three generations of imbeciles are enough."

Neither fine, nor lofty, nor evil.

No more so than measuring the amount of energy contained within an atom of plutonium.

Braaaaak Eugenics!
Braaaaak Eugenics!
Braaaaak Eugenics!

Perhaps the problem is your Parrot’s moral compass is so poorly calibrated that it, and you, can not distinguish between knowledge and its evil application?
