Assuming we understood genetics better and had the tools with which to manipulate individual sequences of DNA, we could do much more interesting things than influence voting patterns.

well I'm worried that white liberals are in the process of being extinct and that the foaming at the mouth types will soon outnumber them greater than 2:1. So its really psychology. How do you turn a foaming at the mouth type into the type of person who lives in western Massachusetts or Vermont?
Have you tried the power of persuasion? Much cheaper, fewer ethical concerns, and doesn't require as of yet sophisticated and unavailable technology.

Or an authoritarian regime.

Right. What I said about the power of persuasion. That's the exact opposite of what I suggested. It's exceedingly unhelpful.

I know. Tongue  I just wanted freepcrusher to realize it would take something like an authoritarian regime for such a ridiculous idea to be carried out.

(That, or just hardline partisan parents, of course.)

Who cares if white liberals are "going extinct" (a highly dubious claim as it is, lol)

By that, I mean what about black, Latino, and Asian liberals? Why get worried about white people? Seems kinda racist to me.

Oh, irony.
