    Why does nobody ever stop to ask what the implications will be of allowing actually-existing capitalism to fuck around with advanced biotech?

      People do, they’re just drowned out by their colleagues who are rabidly fixated on getting more funding and recognition. Happens all the time in research science in general and it’s very disheartening to see extremely valid criticism be swept under the rug so we can make the place look more comfortable for stakeholders/investors. I hate it.
