I guess when your benchmark is genocide, it doesn’t seem like that big of a deal.

wouldn't call it genocide because it is not a selective measure. but yea, "preventing births" does qualify

I meant to say that the phrase “medical/physical alternatives” in the context you used it, means genocide.

Or maybe just…free vasectomies? or even free condoms.

as i tried to explain: it does not

At the slightest hint of coercion toward those measures, it’s genocide. Even peer pressure. Be sure not to do that.

To be clear, the word you're looking for is "eugenics".
