I’m rather skeptical of all these cries of “eugenics”, which now occur quite often in the era of DNA editing.

There are several stories in the news right now about genetic engineering and “EUGENICS!” as a cry is all too easily being done.

Regarding inheriting success (whatever that is) via DNA rather than culture - quite a few people probably believe that to some degree.

Wrong person, but I’ll bite. What I consider one of the key traits of eugenics is that its advocates sought to impose their agenda on other people against their will.

Keeping people who carry fragile X from having kids? Eugenics.

Giving those people the option of editing that gene out? Not eugenics.
