The peer-reviewed paper "Beneficial Bloodsucking" by Parker Crutchfield and Blake Hereth (medical ethics professors at Western Michigan University Homer Stryker M.D. School of Medicine) was published in Bioethics.

https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/bioe.70015

It assumes eating meat in the West is morally wrong (a common premise in some ethical debates) and argues that alpha-gal syndrome (AGS) - the potentially lethal red meat allergy caused by tick bites - acts as a "moral bioenhancer" because it discourages meat consumption by causing lifelong and life-endangering allergy in Western societies with high meat consumption patterns.

According to authors efforts to prevent AGS spread are morally impermissible under that assumption and the AGS pandemic should be enhanced/promoted instead.

They defend a "Convergence Argument" (across consequentialism, deontology, and virtue ethics): promoting tickborne AGS is strongly pro tanto morally obligatory because it prevents a worse world (meat-eating), doesn't violate rights (in their framing), and promotes virtue.

According to the study, it is feasible to genetically edit ticks' disease-carrying capacity. If applicable to AGS-carrying ticks like enhancing lone star ticks and spreading them, promoting the proliferation of tickborne AGS is morally obligatory.

BTW, it is very easy to prove that only gen-modded ticks could rise AGS incidence in the US from zero to almost 500k cases in few years. It is not natural and looks like a typical GoF job. AGS was completely unknown before 2010 and has very strong features of being a biolab creation.

stop spamming
>>
>>16978386
Since when peer-reviewed studies published in "prestigious" scientific journals are being classified as a spam here?
>>
>>16978438
Since when ever the bot started cross posting this stuff from /pol/ and spamming it here on multiple threads

>"prestigious"
lol. the journal that accepted his crap is in no way prestigious. you will never be a scientist.
>>
>>16978449
Why are you so scared? Thats a legit study. Sadly, almost all studies presenting post-2020 untested gene therapies based on experimental genetic platforms as bioweapons are being censored and retracted exactly by the same journals that postulate spreading AGS pandemic to reduce meat consumption in general population.

Those who took lifespan-reducing "covid vaccines" are usually too dumb to read such studies with full understanding anyway. They wont revolt against you.

Its only natural for a psychopath to desire to reduce all the other males childrens height by 6 inches to give their children a physical and i suppose large cognitive edge .

Only way is to stop using their money and go in the woods. microdose the meat and dairy allergy or simply kick the can if you get it

i'm about a month out myself

Bioethics is not a philosophy.
>>
>>16978456
Who cares?

>>16978477
Just noticing.

I like how you made the /sci/ gatekeepers cry. Turns out they browse /pol/ lol.

Moral bio-enhancement will be covert. And once you lose your job to automation, you won't be able to avoid it, because you won't be getting your daily bugmeal without your NEETbux and you won't get getting those NEETbux without first scanning your vaccine passport. Enjoy your monthly gene therapy booster shots. You vill be a good goyim and you vill be happy.

What are the odds that some paper published in July 2025 would get several threads on a dead board all of sudden?

Seeing how threatened you are by this, you can expect OP to keep reposting it.

>>16978511
I expect he will keep spamming this either way.

50% - yes or no

it's a philosophy journal. they don't conduct studies.

Oxford yes
Otherwise not a chance in hell

Feel free to do so

It's not a study. It's an ethics paper. That you don't understand the difference is both telling and unsurprising.

>>16978325
if they can manage that they can manage means to create things that bolster longevity and sustainability of any creature, human or not. Bait post or just aloof to additional considerations or superior application.

How do they deal with the fact that those ticks are also spreading other diseases?
>we got humanity to stop eating ebil meat, guiz
>now everyone has Lyme disease
