Oh I have the opposite problem. I wish I could convince DHL to just leave the damn thing on the doorstep. No, DHL, not everyone is home to sign for a package.

Feels like a Calvin’s Dad explanation.
I wouldn’t call the argument a bad faith argument. Perhaps there is a line somewhere, but ultimately, his argument is that “two people who have an increased chance of passing on genetic disorders can’t have children/have a relationship”.
For most people, when asked this question outside of the incest framing, would argue that the state has no role to dictate that line. The slope is too slippery and screams too much like eugenics. It’s only within the social taboo of incest do people think that argument is acceptable.

Not The Onion@lemmy.world•NHS defends cousin marriages because ‘only 15 percent lead to birth defects’English
49·3 months agoParent-child incest has the power dynamic issue. It’s basically impossible to consent in that relationship.
