    American Experience: The Eugenics Crusade

    "The Eugenics Crusade," a two-hour documentary written and directed by Michelle Ferrari, tells the largely unknown story of America's quest to breed healthy babies — the impulse to perfect humanity — beginning in the late 19th century.

    By the mid-1920s, eugenics was mainstream and codified by laws that restricted immigration and allowed for the sterilization of tens of thousands of American citizens deemed to be "morons," "unfit," or poor, illiterate or promiscuous.

    As the film narrates, in Buck v. Bell, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld a Virginia statute in 1927 that permitted the forced (without consent) sterilization of those deemed unfit and a burden to society if they procreated. It was a "fake" case, actually; the attorney representing Carrie Buck was hired by and took orders from attorneys for the Virginia State Colony for Epileptics and the Feebleminded. This institution created this test case to insure they could continue to carry out their policies and procedures to purify populations.

    This decision by the Supreme Court has never been overturned and still stands. In fact, forced sterilization is permitted in half the states in America by laws that have not been challenged or overturned.

    Though the faulty work of eugenics lasted less than 40 years (discredited during the Depression, when even the rich became paupers), American eugenics influenced Adolf Hitler and the Nazis, and its legacy is with us still.

    "The Eugenics Crusade" tells a chilling story and shows how easy it is to use fear of "the other" to bring about the most inhumane treatment of human beings.

    And the root is Darwinism.

    a Failed theory that is generally accepted as science,,and skews real science.
    Liberty is lost through complacency and a subservient mindset. When we accept or even welcome automobile checkpoints, random searches, mandatory identification cards, and paramilitary police in our streets, we have lost a vital part of our American heritage. America was born of protest, revolution, and mistrust of government. Subservient societies neither maintain nor deserve freedom for long.

    The Geneticists' Manifesto -- published in 1939

    Of the six social changes listed in this Manifesto, 100% of them have been completely or almost completely implemented. No political party has ever been organized in resistance of these changes. There is no public discussion in television, newsprint or anywhere else except in fringe communities like RPF with relatively low membership / circulation. The eugenics agenda did not end in the US, in fact, it is bigger than ever.

    For reference here are the six changes:

    1. "Economic and social conditions which provide approximately equal opportunities for all members of society instead of stratifying them from birth into classes with widely different privileges." Note that the motivation is not moral, rather, it is to create a"valid [scientific] basis for estimating and comparing the intrinsic worth of different individuals."

    2. "Removal of race prejudices and of the unscientific doctrine that good or bad genes are the monopoly of particular peoples or of persons with features of a given kind." Once again, this is not motivated by moral considerations, rather, it is because these prejudices are a "hindrance to genetic improvement" by reducing the genetic variation of human reproduction.

    3. "An organization of production primarily for the benefit of consumer and worker... [and] the conditions of employment ... adapted to the needs of parents and especially of mothers, and ... dwellings, towns and community services generally are reshaped with the good of children as one of their main objectives." Note that this was written in 1939. Working mothers, universal schooling / daycare, consumer-based economics. All of these cosmic-scale social changes were foretold, right in this short manifesto. Note also that this social change is not motivated by moral reasoning or even crypto-marxism... rather, it is to ensure that the "considerations of the worth of future generations" is the only factor in reproduction. In plain language, desirable stock should be able to breed easily.

    4. "The legalization, the universal dissemination, and the further development through scientific investigation, of ever more efficacious means of birth control, both negative and positive, that can be put into effect at all stages of the reproductive process — as by voluntary temporary or permanent sterilization, contraception, abortion (as a third line of defense), control of fertility and of the sexual cycle, artificial insemination, etc." I don't even need to add commentary to this one...

    5. "A far wider spread of knowledge of biological principles and of recognition of the truth that both environment and heredity constitute dominating and inescapable complementary factors in human well-being, but factors both of which are under the potential control of man and admit of unlimited but interdependent progress." Given points 4 and 5, now you know the real reason you were compelled to sit through sex-ed class. "It felt like they just don't even want us to have sex. Free condoms passed out all around." Yes, because you are not part of the "desirable stock." Therefore, it's best if you don't copulate at all and, if you do, it's best if you are sterilized first.

    6. "Socialized organization" of society in order to achieve "an agreed direction or directions for [genetic] selection to take, and these directions [should] be social ones, that is, for the good of mankind at large." And once again, this is not Marxism... the argument here is not that a socialized society is more fair, in fact, the global society proposed in this manifesto is patently unfair. Rather, the argument is that you cannot have a conscious, "self-guided" evolutionary process without a specific goal/objective which is being evolved for, and that goal/objective would have to be "the good of mankind at large." They go on: "The most important genetic objectives, from a social point of view, are the improvement of those genetic characreristics which make (a) for health, (b) for the complex called intelligence and (c) for those temperamental qualities which favour fellow-feeling and social behaviour rather than those (today most esteemed by many) which make for personal "success," as success is usually understood at present." Out with individualism, in with "social value." You're just another egg being cracked to make the global eugenic omelette...
