no, because people choose to take them

if they’re forced, then yes, it’s eugenics

They are not forced to take it, they can just not take the meth and have children.

I would really like your opinion on children being “forced” to have MMR vaccination in order to attend pre-school? Do you think it’s immoral to take that bodily autonomy away in order to make it safer for all the rest of the children?

  no, because MMR vaccines have been proven to be safe, and you are informed that your child must be vaccinated to go school; it’s not like the kid is vaccinated against their knowledge once they get there
  
  birth control pills can have side effects, sometimes very detrimental, and in this hypothetical scenario they’re hidden in the meth, so you don’t even know it’s there

    Once again, the hypothetical that it’s hidden, is only in your head, that sign doesn’t say “hide birth control in meth”, it’s also fucking unrealistic, if it were to happen the only way it happens if it’s legalized, controlled meth that has birth control added to it, or rather it could be that the users can get meth as long as they also take the birth control when they get the meth.
    
    Also your worry about birthcontrol side effects with fucking meth users is goddamn laughable.
    
    It’s like going back to ww2 and telling the soldiers not to smoke because it’s bad for their health, like the fucking bullets and explosives are way more detrimental to their health, don’t you think?

    These are all good points but they also apply to alcohol which is a hard drug and a teratogen (causes birth defects). I suspect that people would throw a hissy fit if this was suggested, yet it actually makes perfect logical sense. If meth comes with birth control then all known teratogenic recreational drugs should come with birth control, as no one should be consuming them while pregnant.
