"About 5 percent of children are born with a severe genetic disease, and so that means you're compatible with about 95 percent of people," Church said on "60 Minutes." "We're just adding this [tool] to all the other dating criteria."

• “Julia Naftulin ― A Harvard geneticist is creating a dating app that matches users based on DNA, and people are worried it’s eugenics.” This is the title of a post on a blog that claims to be “An economics, investment, trading and policy blog with a focus on Modern Monetary Theory (MMT). We seek the truth, avoid the mainstream and are virulently anti-neoliberalism.”

• On YouTube, one Amazing Polly claims that Mr. Epstein sponsored Harvard geneticists. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XposZwIYoNE&t=485s
• The New York Times shows a photo documenting that Mr. Epstein and Harvard economist Larry Summers were best buddies.

• If you think that makes Larry Summers persona non grata in the American Economic Association you are mistaken. On a Tweet, he features prominently on the panel of economic authorities at #ASSA2020.

This is a bit spooky when one considers that the economist Malthus inspired Darwin and that Keynes was Director of the British Eugenics Society 1937-1944.#1
