Eugenics

[dragonystic]

true.

i guess it comes down to how much faith you have in mankind doing this sort of thing. i saw earlier you wrote:

I think people are inherently "good."

im a bit more cynical, and think theres really no way humans could do this without letting their own agendas, desire for power, greed etc...get in the way.

edit: also, it still would be involuntary. eugenics is the promotion of entire populations. you cant opt out. (if you can, its not eugenics.)

Well, the idea is that the population you're dealing with is composed of those who "opt in." Offspring who "opt out" would obviously just have to be removed from the gene pool - ie they're no longer allowed to participate in the program. The population doesn't have to be geographically isolated.

And if they get outcompeted, tough walnuts.

I doubt the "opt in"-population would be big enough any time soon, I don't know though.

in the latest alex jones film endgame it said that the darwins or his cousins or some family like that tried eugenics but maybe there was inbreeding or something and the whole thing was a disaster after 2 or 3 or 4 generations, like royalty being crazy and bleeders.
