One way it is scary is it creates a new form of genocide. Rather than murdering oppressed groups, we will simply disable the genes that make them part of that group, erasing diversity.
A world with only white, straight, cisgender, neurotypical, conventionally attractive etc. people is not one I want to live in.
Take a trip on tumblr sometime and you'll see that the psychological drive to be a unique and special snowflake is strong enough that you have nothing to worry about.
So you'd say with a straight face that if everyone in the world suddenly became white, straight and good-looking, that this would be so unbearable to you that you would kill yourself?
If you're not literally saying that, then what is the value of your hyperbole? Your post reads like pure fear-mongering to me.

No?
I'm saying I'd rather not live in a world where diversity has been eliminated.

Humans modifying themselves is scary. Very scary.

The moment you mention the word "tumblr" as if it has a particular meaning, you lose all credibility.
If that's what it takes to lose credibility for you then I can't say I've lost anything of value.
Sounds alright to me tbh.
Perhaps because you fall within that bracket.
Mostly.
