He was gunning for a non-mutated, cancer riddled son.

So, in their society, a genetically superior one. I don't get why you're trying to split hairs.

Because there's a HUGE difference between wanting a healthy child and wanting "genetically superior" child that harkens to Hilter's Aryan plan.

There's a difference in circumstance but not a whole lot of difference in method and intent. It's not like we have any reason to think Joe would've treated people any better in his society if they weren't mutated/cancer-ridden. Especially considering he himself was deformed.

It's not splitting hairs to point out that 'genetically superior' is a loaded phrase that doesn't apply here.

Immortan Joe is his own kind of bad, he doesn't need to be Hitler to be bad.

I think it's a comparison worth thinking about, especially considering Joe himself is addled with cancer/deformities. The fact that he only gave a damn about Splendid for her capacity to birth him a "perfect" son ("perfect" is the word I remember him using, not "healthy," although he might've used "healthy," too) has echoes of both patriarchal male heir obsession and eugenics. I don't see much evidence for the interpretation that he's actually concerned with making the population healthier.
