It's easy to have this opinion when you are from the group perceived as superior. When you are from the group that is going to receive the "scientifically validated" stamp of inferiority, I think you would be very much against such statements as advocated in the article.
It's never okay to have this view. I find that people who favour eugenics are never those who would have been culled in the first place. Same argument always when it comes to proving the superiority of a particular group - it's usually members from that group who want to do this the most.
