I don't know anything about evolution or genetics, and I'm pretty sure this guy doesn't either. Why would everyone become disabled because more disabled people survive and pass on their genes to their kids? We don't stone gingers to death and yet we are not all having red-headed kids.
The repeated use of the word "weak" (as opposed to "sick" or "disabled") seems revealing.
I can't say for sure that he thinks of genetics as bloodlines, and is concerned about its purity, but I can have my suspicions.
