What is Genomism?


1.

A policy of discrimination towards a individual or group due to the presence of markers within their genetic code.

(Future-Slang)

Under Genomism, a person can be accessed and determined fit or unfit for a occupation, activity or even inclusion within the society itself, all without consideration of personal achievements, ability or demeanor.

To (il)legally discriminate due to a DNA analysis.

"I didn't get the job because they sampled my DNA and determined that I had a 37% likelihood of reduced proficiency..."
