Before the mid-1900s, there was a policy in which people who were considered “genetically unfit” were forcibly sterilized to prevent them from reproducing. This policy was called Eugenics, and it not only ruined the lives of countless people but it also resulted in mass-slaughter.

The worst instance was Action T4, when the German government rounded up and murdered thousands of people who were mentally disabled. One of the people killed was the cousin of Pope Benedict XVI.

Are there any other instances of Eugenics that comes to mind? Any examples I forgot to mention?
