Picture such a test in the hands of bigots.
They'd be apt to double down and try *harder* to make the kids identified by the test "normal".
And lets not even get into how possible genetic tests for being gay or trans could be misused.

"To a conservative mind, socialism is getting something for nothing. Yet this is what the president promotes for the wealthy"
'To a conservative mind', maybe, since as we have all observed, 'conservative minds' don't give a shit about truth or accuracy, and just twist everything around to fit their irrational narrative. But in point of fact, socialism is government ownership of the means of production. It is not 'socialism' when rich kleptocratics take over the government and use the law to grant huge bail-outs and kick-backs to their own privately owned corporations.
