Eugenics

[zone]

Eugenics is the bio-social movement which advocates practices to improve the genetic composition of a population, usually a human population.[2][3]

It is a social philosophy advocating the improvement of human hereditary traits through the promotion of higher reproduction of more desired people and traits, and reduced reproduction of less desired people and traits.[4]

Eugenics, as a modern concept, was originally developed by Francis Galton. Galton had read his cousin Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, which sought to explain the development of plant and animal species, and desired to apply it to humans. In 1883, one year after Darwin's death, Galton gave his research a name, Eugenics.[5]

Throughout its recent history, eugenics remains a controversial concept.[6] As a social movement, eugenics reached its greatest popularity in the early decades of the 20th century.

At this point in time, eugenics was practiced around the world and was promoted by governments, and influential individuals and institutions. Many countries enacted[citation needed] various eugenics policies and programs, including: genetic screening, birth control, promoting differential birth rates, marriage restrictions, segregation (both racial segregation and segregation of the mentally ill from the rest of the population), compulsory sterilization, forced abortions or forced pregnancies and genocide. Most of these policies were later regarded as coercive and/or restrictive, and now few jurisdictions implement policies that are explicitly labeled as eugenic or unequivocally eugenic in substance.

Eugenics, the social movement claiming to improve the genetic features of human populations through selective breeding and sterilization,[1] based on the idea that it is possible to distinguish between superior and inferior elements of society,[2] played a significant role in the history and culture of the United States prior to its involvement in World War II.[3]

Eugenics was practised in the United States many years before eugenics programs in Nazi Germany[4] and actually, U.S. programs provided much of the inspiration for the latter.[5][6][7] Stefan Kühl has documented the consensus between Nazi race policies and those of eugenicists in other countries, including the United States, and points out that eugenicists understood Nazi policies and measures as the realization of their goals and demands.[5]

A hallmark of the Progressive Era of the late 19th and early 20th century, now generally associated with racist and nativist elements (as the movement was to some extent a reaction to a change in emigration from Europe) rather than scientific genetics, eugenics was considered a method of preserving and improving the dominant groups in the population.

etc etc etc.
so did this fade away as an ideology?
or did they just call it something else?

ZUBRIN: China’s population-control holocaust

The bloody history of ‘Limits to Growth’

By Robert Zubrin Monday, May 21, 2012

On May 7, South Korean customs authorities announced they had discovered 17,500 capsules made from the incinerated remains of human fetuses and infants being smuggled into the country from China for sale. Coming in the wake of the high-profile drama concerning the effort of the Chinese government to suppress the voice of the brave, blind anti-population-control activist Chen Guangcheng, this news has placed the issue of the regime’s brutal one-child law forcefully before the conscience of the world. Therefore, a look at the origin and history of this atrocity is in order.

David Rockefeller Praises Chairman Mao’s Slaughter of 45 Million People in Four Years

Thursday, 30 September 2010 12:19

1973. After a trip to China, David Rockefeller praised Mao Tse-tung who had slaughtered over 40 million people.
His report, "From a China Traveler," highlights the goals presented in UN reports such as "The Commission on Global Governance" and UNESCO's Our Creative Diversity.

Both focus on lofty ideals such as peace, harmony and unity in the communitarian "global" village -- a vision that demands absolute control and universal participation in facilitated small groups (modeled by the hierarchy of "soviets" or councils in Communist lands):

"One is impressed immediately by the sense of national harmony... Whatever the price of the Chinese Revolution it has obviously succeeded... in fostering high morale and community purpose. General social and economic progress is no less impressive....The enormous social advances of China have benefited greatly form the singleness of ideology and purpose... The social experiment in China under Chairman Mao's leadership is one of the most important and successful in history."

David ROCKEFELLER
New York Times, 8-10-1973.

Episode 271 – Planned Parenthood Exposed

Posted by Corbett

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Although the likes of Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama and Bill Gates are happy to sing its praises (or perhaps because they are), Planned Parenthood has a racist eugenicist past that it would prefer to sweep under the rug. The bigger problem for the organization, though, is that the past isn’t over and the public is beginning to discover the real driving force behind this globalist institution. Join us this week on The Corbett Report as we pull back the curtain and expose Margaret Sanger’s monstrous offspring: Planned Parenthood.

In 1904, the Carnegie Institution established a laboratory complex at Cold Spring Harbor on Long Island that stockpiled millions of index cards on ordinary Americans, as researchers carefully plotted the removal of families, bloodlines and whole peoples. From Cold Spring Harbor, eugenics advocates agitated in the legislatures of America, as well as the nation's social service agencies and associations.

COLD SPRING HARBOR LABORATORY

Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory | Directions

Celebrating 100 years of Genetics

One-hundred years ago, in 1904, the Carnegie Institution of Washington founded a Station for Experimental Evolution at Cold Spring Harbor. With this founding, and following the reorganization of the station in 1921 as the Carnegie Institution Department of Genetics, the world of biological research was transformed.

The list of contributions to genetics, medicine, and to
the birth of molecular biology by Carnegie Institution
scientists at Cold Spring Harbor is legion. Moreover,
the legacy of the Carnegie Institution Department of
Genetics extends to the present: In 1963, its facilities
merged with those of its long-time scientific neighbor
(The Biological Laboratory, founded in 1890) in an act
that created what is known today as Cold Spring Harbor
Laboratory.

The Fight to Stop Population Control in Philippines Continues

Supreme Court to Reconsider Controversial “Reproductive Health” Bill

By Elizabeth Crnkovich Weekly Briefing: 2013 (v15)

Proponents of population control in the Philippines, including the Obama administration, were in a celebratory mood on December 17, 2012 when the so-called “Reproductive Health” (RH) Bill was signed into law. But they may have started partying too soon. The Supreme Court of the Philippines has now suspended the law for 120 days while it considers whether or not it violates the Philippine Constitution.

The Catholic Church, joined by millions of believers across the archipelago, fought long and hard to prevent the law from passing the Philippine Congress in the first place, and has now filed a lawsuit to prevent it from taking effect.

Residents urge state to drop Common Core school standards

Residents describe Common Core as federal intrusion and a Bill Gates money grab. They argue against adoption in Pa.

July 10, 2013|By Steve Esack, Call Harrisburg Bureau

HARRISBURG — For many, Bill Gates is the glasses-wearing businessman who has used his wealth as co-founder of Microsoft to help improve society.

For a growing number of people, however, he is a shark with glasses, and he's swimming in Pennsylvania's educational waters in search of his next meal ticket: their children.
