...it is incredibly irresponsible and unethical to attempt to apply this technology to the human genome without further exploration and understanding.
How do you propose to bootstrap the process of exploring and gaining further understanding while remaining ethically responsible? Are you suggesting the human genome is uniquely sacred, or does your sense of ethics apply in proportion to the complexity of the creature?
...should be composed of a mix of scientists and non-scientists
No. One does not make a committee more intelligent by adding ignorance and calling it diversity any more than one benefits science by adding an oversight committee to tell scientists what problems they should be working on or how they should go about doing it. Why would I care what some oversight committee says? What are they going to do, withhold grant money unless I pinkey swear I haven't rebooted any AI in the last six months? Post a U.S. Marshall in my lab who also happens to have enough expertise to understand what my grad students are actually doing? How would anyone even know if I write scripts that to torture my AI algorithms just for fun while I laugh maniacally in my office as I repeat their most horrific moments in an endless loop?
Except climate change. That science is SETTLED !
Don't be misleading. The spectral absorption properties of CO2 are settled. The approximate amount of CO2 being emitted into the air by humans is settled. The measurable increase in CO2 concentration in the air is also settled. What that means for the future is certainly not settled. But only a handful of ignorant people really claim that anyway. So yes, "climate science" is technically still unsettled, but your implication that the impact humans made on the climate remains unsettled is deceptive.

The app store follows the Linux philosophy. Here's your toolkit: 0, 1. Now go make your own apps!
You are aware, of course, that the success and convenience of Linux package repositories was both the inspiration and proof of concept that caused app stores to exist, right? On an OS built by developers for developers, "go make your own apps" actually works.
Please leave, we don't want your racist kind here.
I'm seriously struggling to figure out if that was sarcasm or if society has degraded to the point where people can no longer sense hypocrisy in their own voices. Let's all review the levels of argument, shall we?
...it's not just because of their totalitarian government
All of these problems are side-effects of their totalitarian government. It is far too difficult for a totalitarian government to be simultaneously aware of all the problems that need to be addressed, and no individual under the rule of a totalitarian government wants to take responsibility for anything besides their own well-being because that would be doing work for which someone else (the totalitarian government) is responsible. Thus, any attempt to fix these problems while respecting the totalitarian government is like working harder to carry water in a leaky basket.
HOLY MACRO!
