The details are quite clear, even in this article. They're targeting genetic diseases.

    This is just whitewashing eugenics.

    If he said they were trying to create a super race, everyone we would be up in arms.

    But when they frame it as trying to cure babies, they get away with a lot more.

    There is a reason this is illegal in the US and UK.
