one thing that tech bros forget to take into account is that disability is simply part of being human. if we truly wanted to eliminate disability from the human condition we'd have to eradicate humanity –Terminator style–.
why do you ask? because disability is inevitable once you age. aging is part of becoming disabled. accidents are acts of fate that can render you disabled at any moment. can you eliminate bad luck from the universe? I know Elon supporters would love to claim otherwise, alas, you cannot.
this is similar to the weirdos that only adopt able-bodied babies and dump them once an accident happens or they discover they were disabled all along but passed the eugenics screening process. the conclusion is, if you can't love your child regardless of health status then you don't really love them.
