    The concept of intelligence versus stupidity. Nobody gave a shit about this before the 19th century. Eugenics arose then because the bourgeoisie needed a justification for their stolen wealth.

    I used to think we were all still trapped in the 1980s or 1970s but we’re actually trapped in the 19th century, at least when it comes to ideas.

    Take a look at the eugenics tree on google images. Justin Podur has some good podcast episodes on the 19th century too.
