When people run into the word “eugenics,” probably the first thing they think of is Hitler and his hankering to eliminate undesirable people from his Third Reich Aryan utopia.
Wanting racial purity for Germany, was no sin at all. The people Hitler sought to expel (peacefully, via the Haavara Agreement) had just created the USSR next door, and killed 60M Christians. 10M by starvation in the Holodomor. Germany was about to fall, it suffered hyperinflation, degeneracy, and was being bled by the Rothschild bankers who drafted the Treaty of Versailles.
The real Eugenics nightmare, was East of Germany, as crazed Bolsheviks tried to thrust vastly different nations in to one Communist Ensemble. Armenians. Chechens. Kazakhs. No combo was too bizarre, as long as you killed a few, the rest fell in line. This was the true Mendelian Nightmare.
1935 Germany was paradise. High trust. Clean. Low crime. No degeneracy. Strongest economy in the world, once the jewish bankers were removed, and Freemasonry was attacked.
What we see today, the open borders, the miscegenation, the degeneracy, the Leftist Authoritarian backhands of Truth, these are jewish tricks. The creators of Communism. The most expelled group of people in human history. The perpetrators of the greatest atrocities, but given their control of your media, money supply and academia, you wouldn't know it.
It's not too harsh a word to describe the global agenda we are growing more and more aware of as eugenics. It's accurate. Eugenics ever went away after WWII. It just went undergound and has been renamed. Linguistics being he refuge of scoundrels.
Few want to acknowledge that the US and UK led Germany's fascination with and adoption of eugenics as manifested under the Third Reich. In fact, defendants at Nuremberg raised the hallmark US court decision in Buck v. Bell in their defense for their crimes against humanity. "You Americans did it, what's the big deal. For the uninformed, Oliver Wendell Holmes writing for the 9-1 SCOTUS majority said, "three generations of imbeciles is enough" to uphold involuntary sterilizations.
The decision was slightly restrained in the 1940's in Oklahoma v Skinner, the consent to sterilization issue given more weight. But still authorizing involuntary sterilization in certain circumstances. Buck v. Bell was upheld as recently as 2003, and cited when upholding many of the pandemic mask and vaccine mandates, along with Jacobson.
Note: "Gender-affirming surgery" is a Madison Avenue marketing campaign for consent to sterilization of imbeciles.. By making it a practice that is desired by a target demographic they found a clever way to get around the hold consent problem. "All the cool kids are doing it" is effective marketing and advertising created by Madmen.
Note: The Third Reich Aryan utopia also got rid of political opponents by diagnosing them with mental disorders. Deemed "asocials" for being disobedient, suffering from dissociation for disagreeing with state-approved narratives. Executed along with all of the other undesirables. Deplorables, bitter clingers and all. They've even coined a term, "evidence-based reality" to portray political narratives as reality, challenges to them as delusional:
And the tip of the spear for efforts to round up those who pose a threat to the state, political opponents, the disobedient, those who've "lost faith in evidence-based reality" is the Behavioral Health programs and centers that are rapidly being adopted and expanded in communities across the nation, exploding since 2020. Behavioral Science is the science of masks, climate, energy, trans, all of the distortions of reality we've been subjected to overnight, without debate or discussion, "the debate is over declarations" that are intended to short-circuit our understanding of the world we knew right up until the moment it was rejected as extremism and conspiracy. Only narrative science changes overnight. Not real science.
The wealthy and elite are just as enthralled by eugenics in 2023 as they were in 1923. Jeffrey Epstein's little black book and travel logs are filled with leading eugenicists and scientists from around the world. Designing the future population in their image. This time around eugenics contemplates caste systems, some bred to serve, some bred to entertain, some bred to labor, some bred to manage, etc. Perhaps he didn't kill himself for reasons more important to the powerful than being busted for pedophilia.
It is eugenics, Todd. Make no apologies for using the term.
I think your point about rules being changed and laws modified is so valid. Assisted suicide is being voted on in Virginia and at first I believed, yes, that is a good thing…but then after reading this article and deeper investigation, I realize it is not a good thing. Presently here in the US hospice care includes help (via morphine, etc) in slowly fading away…no need for the government to take control…as what is happening in Canada. Scary stuff.
Oh boy! How soon before “Me Too” Biden thinks we need this to Build Back Better in America and decides that we MAGA supporters are mentally ill enough to warrant government mandated euthanasia ?
They have been trying to cull the population for a century now. Now they have to do it on the sly as people are more aware of it. However, they still do it in in plain site such as in Gaza, and they justify it to the people as getting rid of terrorists and saving so-called democracy. and a lot of 🐑 fall for it. Us 🐀s know better. Good article as usual. Todd, and will be linking it today @https://nothingnewunderthesun2016.com/
Todd, another thought provoking article. I agree your suggestion 'Medically Assisted Death' is really what it is and at times now, we definitely consider it MAD. As in everything, the pendulum swings way out of balance. What initially starts as reasonable and a relief turns to something dark and evil. Where is the end to these things? I find it starts slowly and you become desensitized to the idea and then the creep gets to where you are considering the murder of babies. Is there sanity somewhere??
I will say it again, it is the agenda that makes something that seemed innocent enough nefarious. Dying to avoid horrible pain is not inhuman, even making it state sponsored may not be evil in itself. But that agenda of dehumanization, transhumanism, genocidal intention, Great Reset, etc. etc. obviously turns what starts out "ok" into the horror that we now see it becoming.
If the agenda were not behind it, we would just have to be very careful with it, but the agenda is indeed behind it, and then being careful isn't enough. We have to get rid of it.
Yes, this is all part of a plan, together with other issues we see going on. The agenda is indeed - alive and well (well it is really unwell). Thank you Todd!
Yes, and I believe that as long as the agenda stays occult, as it is now, people will never really see what is happening as it is just too easy to rationalize all of the evil doings. People have to see that there is an active, conscious, intentional effort to imprison, maime, kill, oppress, control, the masses of humans that live on this planet.
I agree! If we can't get people to see the truth behind the masks, distancing, jabs, then we sure are in an uphill battle to get them to see this dark side to assisting dying, along with many other issues.
Good read. Unfortunately the only "simple" solution to population control is stepping back 300 years or so to a time when it was nearly impossible to save a life from disease or accident. Natural culling took place...not anymore.
I don't suggest we return to Ice Age medicine, even that might not solve it. We are just too smart of a species to not come up with ways to avoid natural culling...it all started with us picking up our tents and moving from one place to another for food.
Maybe Harari is right, we are done as a species. We have reached our pinnacle, and all that is left is to let our own creation, AI and robots, to take our place. If so, the first human experiment will be completed and eventually will just start over again from scratch...maybe with better results a second time around (some believe we have already started over several times).
We’ve all heard, of course, of lies, damn, lies , and statistics. Note: It’s all lie, all the time, and Satan is the father of lies. He’s also alive and well on planet earth but that’s obvious. There are times- very very few I admit- when I almost feel sorry for Adolph. Primarily because I still haven’t fully come to terms with understanding the whys of the world wars which included the most peculiar Transfer Agreements that the the Third Reich negotiated with Jewish Palestine allowing some 60 thousand Jews to emigrate with their belongings to a new life in a new land prior to the genocide period. How very peculiar that transfer seems. (For more information I recommend Edwin Black’s book on the subject "The Transfer Agreement").
But perhaps it is no stranger than seeing the head of the Bush Family- Prescott Bush- working with Margaret Sanger in the 1930s on the board of Planned Parenthood and the use of the Bush Family bank connections in Texas to work with and profit from the war. (Along with Henry ford who also worked with the Nazis and profited greatly.) New declassified documents from the last several years show that even after America had entered the war and when there was already significant information about the Nazis' plans and policies, "Bush worked for and profited from companies closely involved with the very German businesses that financed Hitler's rise to power. It has also been suggested that the money he made from these dealings helped to establish the Bush family fortune and set up its political dynasty. The bank which Bush worked for, Brown Brothers Harriman (BBH), acted as a US base for the German industrialist, Fritz Thyssen, who helped finance Hitler in the 1930s before falling out with him at the end of the decade." And so it goes….oh, be sure to add the despicable Dulles brothers to the above toxic mix. So, yes indeed, we have lies and more lies, but then again, the victors write the history.
As Solomon noted awhile back, "There is nothing new under the sun.’ Especially corruption and murder. And how exhausting it is trying to pick through so many lies across so many years. I have concluded, however, that even in our somewhat confused state we can all be watchmen. God calls us to speak truth to our fellow men and to warn them of danger. They may not listen but rather ignore the warnings, but that is upon their heads, not ours. But if we fail to warn them, then the punishment is upon us. Speak out in love and pray that some hear. Above all remember that God is in control of all of the affairs of men. Apologies for the lengthy ramble…. I didn’t sleep well last night.
Well, eugenics does not have to end in death. The eugenic effort is to rid a culture of undesirables, by any means, and if the culture gets really serious about it, to manipulate genetics, indoctrinations (the effort isn't always to perfect someone physically, but mentally, emotionally and spiritually), controlled birth, physical alterations, transhumanism, etc..
So just because Hitler may have at first just wanted to get rid of Jews by deportation, he still was a eugenicist. And yes, so were all those other folks...I think you can even be a "decent" person and want "what is best for the human race" before thinking too hard about it...that is a dark hole to fall into because there is really no way to go about doing that (doing what is "best" for the human race) without hurting a lot of people.
Could it be that the name of this sinister program is all the more shocking in Canada, our Christian homeland, consecrated to Saint Joseph?
To any Christian, the name "MAiD" definitely breaks the heart as it seems to mock the sacred words of the most holy bearer of LIFE, our Mother Mary, who assented to receiving God's Divine Son in her womb by saying:
“Behold, I am the HANDMAID OF THE LORD; may it be done to me according to your word.”
I am not going to speak for them, but I think part of it is because all this was predicted, and to them, might be best to just let it run its course. I don't like the idea of remaining complacent, but I think that might have something to do with it.
Well, I certainly can see why you label people with the agenda to destroy our culture and humanity "Satanists"...but don't we have to see that many people have been blinded by all this propaganda?
It may not even be true that there have been any school shootings that were not false flags. If those "created events" are causing the "right" to become outraged and insist on arming the teachers, and then the "left" becoming outraged at such an extreme act (as they see it) can't we see the division it creates is also false?
Again, I don't know if we should get into the gun issue here...it is not really a good forum for that debate, suffice it to say, that most, if not all, of us here in this shrewviews community are not Satanists, and all love our children, love peace, love goodness, justice, etc. We may have different ways of implementing those things back into our culture, but we are all, at heart, loving people and want what is best...
There are a lot of problems out there in a lot of forms and through a lot of organizations. All of the organized religions have their demons, some more than others and some more historically than others.
In my view, it is best to stick with the fundamental tenets of a belief system, and in Christianity it is the teachings of Jesus...love, kindness, regard for others, peace, belief, faith. Sure, a person could interpret the crap out of nearly anything, so many Christians could find argument in what I just said...but...what can ya say.
I could be wrong, but I have a feeling most Christians who truly value the teachings of Christ know there are weaknesses within the so called "Christian community"...
I visit Egypt quite often, and it is an Islamic country, and I have not yet met a radical muslim there. Every person I have met has been loving, caring, and has a beautiful soul. They are aware there are ugly people who call themselves Muslim. And again, they are in the minority...and even if they were not in the minority, I would describe them at best to be confused and misguided and at worst "Satanic", labelling themselves Muslim when in fact they are not.
I would suspect the same can be said about radical Christians.
Ahhh...so now we get into natural eugenics, natural selection...IMHO...that's a different thing. We are all unique, some are beautiful enough to win a beauty pageant, some smart enough to win the science fair, some athletic enough to be football quarterback. Natural eugenics? Maybe so, but is that bad? I am afraid if we start to eliminate that human uniqueness, as we already are with the "everyone's a winner" "everyone is beautiful" "everyone is healthy" attitude we are asking for trouble...
It is the state sponsored eugenics I am concerned about, the effort by powers that can put policy into action, that is the problem. The agenda of eugenics is evil. God's effort to reward those with special talents, and maybe even eliminate those who cannot survive a physical life (ahh, yes, here we may get into some sticky mess) as in keeping a dying person on life support way longer than is natural.
Yes, a sticky subject! Technically you are correct, but I draw the line with "natural selection"...but even then it gets sticky...
To me, there is no doubt that in a modern age, as we have been in since the industrial revolution, birth control has more advantages than disadvantages. The question still remains, what have we done to maintain our humanity during this obvious modern time? Birth control, without question, is a veiled form of eugenics. It is a way to "control nature in a way that nature does not necessarily intend"...
I am by no means suggesting we do away with birth control (the pill in particular) any more than I am suggesting to do away with computers, or integrated circuits. But we must look at these things through the lens of humanity and keep the nefarious agenda (in this case, eugenics with, at its core, "culling") from manipulating us into compliance.
If it is a matter of eugenics it certainly is not a conscious one, and actually works in an opposing way to the typical racist-type of eugenic intention, i.e., only wealthy, mostly white, highly educated people use the pill or other contraceptive (at least in the beginning) leaving all the "riff-raff" to continue breeding (according to eugenicists).
Everything you say here is right on. You are looking at it as a pragmatic consideration in an already modernized culture. I am looking at birth control from an idealized perspective where humans are still living in trees...essential a "Garden of Eden" perspective, which has no realistic foundation at all!!
Put it this way, I firmly believe if we did not have birth control we would be in a much worse situation than we are in now, for all the reasons you state here. I am a philosopher, and an idealistic one at that...I don't offer practical solutions..😆

Hear, hear....
Just look at the National Security Study Memorandum 200 and its plans for depopulation... https://eccentrik.substack.com/p/death-by-design-examining-the-depopulation

George Bernard Shaw was a proponent of Eugenics, as were Roosevelt, Helen Keller, H.G.Wells, Churchill and Alexander Graham Bell.
There is evidence to show that Hitlers original intent was to DEPORT all of the Jews, not kill them, with both Madagascar and Palestine on the table.
Well, eugenics does not have to end in death. The eugenic effort is to rid a culture of undesirables, by any means, and if the culture gets really serious about it, to manipulate genetics, indoctrinations (the effort isn't always to perfect someone physically, but mentally, emotionally and spiritually), controlled birth, physical alterations, transhumanism, etc..

How does carrying a firearm for protection make one “Satanic and fascist”?
It doesn't...but in defense of S.2's comment, it was arming teachers he/she had issues with...touchy topic...not sure if we should engage in it here.

I am looking at birth control from an idealized perspective where humans are still living in trees...essential a "Garden of Eden" perspective, which has no realistic foundation at all!!
Put it this way, I firmly believe if we did not have birth control we would be in a much worse situation than we are in now, for all the reasons you state here. I am a philosopher, and an idealistic one at that...I don't offer practical solutions..😆
