The idea of breeding humans, allegedly discontinued, but under a guise resumed in modern institutions. |
In theory Eugenics is the idea of breeding humans; whether by favoring some groups or denying others to procreate. In practice, it was more often than not accompanied by killing the "unfit", political opponents or genocide.

Eugenics in the US
Eugenics was/is a project of the US ruling class to try to secure privilege.[1] The motivation to better the health and intelligence of people with the attempt to guide procreation may in itself not be objectionable to many people. However, the underlying motivation of some apologist for Eugenics is probably well expressed with this quote from someone who lived before the inception of the modern Eugenics movement:
“You will do well to try to inoculate the Indians by means of Blanketts, as well as to try every other Method that can serve to Extirpate this Excerable Race. I should be very glad (if) your scheme for hunting them down by Dogs could take effect ... I would rather chuse the liberty to kill any savage that may come in our way, than to be perpetually doubtful whether they are Friends or Foes ...”
Jeffrey Amherst [2]
This sentence in a letter by Amherst shows his attitude towards enemy's in what he considered warfare, but it stands to reason that this position extended more or less to all he considered undesirable. It also is an example of the thinking and ethos of people who shaped American policy at the time, a policy of extermination that continues to this day.
The English eugenics movement promoted eugenics through selective breeding for positive traits (which were to be found in England’s upper classes). In contrast, the eugenics movement in the US focused on eliminating “undesirable” traits that were concentrated in poor, uneducated, and minority populations. In an attempt to prevent these groups from propagating, eugenicists helped drive legislation for their forced sterilization.[3] California was considered an epicenter of the American eugenics movement.[4] It received extensive financing from the Carnegie Institution, the Rockefeller Foundation and the Harriman railroad fortune.[5]
The ideas of the Eugenic movement and the discussion about positive and destructive traits is continued with Genetics.[6] On a more practical level by Planned Parenthood, which is building it's surgical abortion facilities within walking distance of minority neighborhoods.[7]
Overpopulation
- Full article: “Overpopulation”
- Full article: “Overpopulation”
Eugenics and mRNA vaccination
- Full article: Vaccination
- Full article: Vaccination
According to Wodarg [8] the modern messenger RNA technique of vaccination carries the risk of modifying not only ordinary cells but also germ cells. From the POV of Eugenics, however, this would be a desirable outcome: it may be possible to introduce gene modifications in future generations or force sterilization.
Vaccination has been repeatedly used for unethical (forced) sterilization, supported by the foundations of Bill Gates, Rockefeller, Ford and others.
Eugenics in Nazi-Germany
In an effort in human breeding by selection, any other humans except those with blond hair and blue eyes should be prevented from procreation. As in the case of native Americans, killing those others was rationalized by social darwinism as well as forced sterilization and abortion. Forced twinning breeding experiments were conducted by Josef Mengele in Ausschwitz. It is most likely that he has continued these experiments after the war in South America.[9]
Transgender
American comedian and actor Owen Benjamin thinks that transgenderism is being promoted by the United Nations as a eugenics program.[10]

Nighat Arif | “Will the covid vaccine affect my fertility? There is absolutely no evidence that Covid-19/Vaccines can affect the fertility of a woman or a man there is very strong data that shows that men and women have gone on to fall pregnant after having both doses of the vaccine there's no need to avoid pregnancy after vaccination as the vaccine cannot give your baby COVID-19. The British Fertility Society and the World Health Organization and the JCVI have all looked at the latest data and research and they say that the vaccines are safe and encourage everyone to please take the vaccine when you are offered.” | Nighat Arif | 24 May 2021 |
Madison Grant | “A rigid system of selection through the elimination of those who are weak or unfit—in other words social failures—would solve the whole question in one hundred years, as well as enable us to get rid of the undesirables who crowd our jails, hospitals, and insane asylums. The individual himself can be nourished, educated and protected by the community during his lifetime, but the state through sterilization must see to it that his line stops with him, or else future generations will be cursed with an ever increasing load of misguided sentimentalism. This is a practical, merciful, and inevitable solution of the whole problem, and can be applied to an ever widening circle of social discards, beginning always with the criminal, the diseased, and the insane, and extending gradually to types which may be called weaklings rather than defectives, and perhaps ultimately to worthless race types.” | Madison Grant | 1916 |
Boris Johnson | “As for motherhood – the fertility of the human race – we are getting to the point where you simply can’t discuss it, and we are thereby refusing to say anything sensible about the biggest single challenge facing the Earth” | Boris Johnson | 25 October 2007 |
Boris Johnson | “How the hell can we witter on about tackling global warming, and reducing consumption, when we are continuing to add so relentlessly to the number of consumers? The answer is politics, and political cowardice.” | Boris Johnson | 25 October 2007 |
Sierra Club | “Childbearing [should be] a punishable crime against society, unless the parents hold a government license... All potential parents [should be] required to use contraceptive chemicals, the government issuing antidotes to citizens chosen for childbearing.” | David Brower | |
Transhumanism | “unless [civilised societies] invent and enforce adequate measures for regulating human reproduction, for controlling the quantity of population, and at least preventing the deterioration of quality of racial stock, they are doomed to decay” | Julian Huxley | 1926 |
Transhumanism | “The GenRich—who account for ten percent of the American population—[will] all carry synthetic genes. All aspects of the economy, the media, the entertainment industry, and the knowledge industry are controlled by members of the GenRich class…
“Naturals [unaltered humans] work as low-paid service providers or as laborers. [Eventually] the GenRich class and the Natural class will become entirely separate species with no ability to crossbreed, and with as much romantic interest in each other as a current human would have for a chimpanzee. “Many think that it is inherently unfair for some people to have access to technologies that can provide advantages while others, less well-off, are forced to depend on chance alone, [but] American society adheres to the principle that personal liberty and personal fortune are the primary determinants of what individuals are allowed and able to do. “Indeed, in a society that values individual freedom above all else, it is hard to find any legitimate basis for restricting the use of repro[grammed]-genetics. I will argue [that] the use of reprogenetic technologies is inevitable. [W]hether we like it or not, the global marketplace will reign supreme.” | Lee Silver | 1998 |
Michael Yeadon | “It’s become absolutely clear to me, even when I talk to intelligent people, friends, acquaintances … and they can tell I’m telling them something important, but they get to the point [where I say] ‘your government is lying to you in a way that could lead to your death and that of your children,’ and they can’t begin to engage with it. And I think maybe 10% of them understand what I said, and 90% of those blank their understanding of it because it is too difficult. And my concern is, we are going to lose this, because people will not deal with the possibility that anyone is so evil…” | Michael Yeadon | April 2021 |
Michael Yeadon | “If you wanted to depopulate a significant portion of the world, and to do it in a way that wouldn’t require destruction of the environment with nuclear weapons, or poisoning everyone with anthrax or something, and you wanted plausible deniability, whilst you had a multi-year infectious disease crisis; I don’t think you could come up with a better plan than what seems to be in front of me. I can’t say that’s what they’re going to do, but I cannot think of a benign explanation for why they are doing it.” | Michael Yeadon | April 2021 |
