Today In Labor History March 26, 1910: Congress amended the Immigration Act of 1907 to specifically bar entrance of “paupers, anarchists, criminals and the diseased.” The amendment was specifically designed to limit entry of Eastern and Southern European immigrants, many of whom were becoming radicalized by the deplorable working and living conditions in late 19th and early 20th century America. The law came in the midst of a wave of anti-immigrant hysteria, whipped up by government and media-generated pro-eugenics propaganda. The original law included the following statement of “undesirables” to be prohibited entry into the United States: “All idiots, imbeciles, feebleminded persons, epileptics, insane persons, and persons who have been insane within five years previous; persons who have had two or more attacks of insanity at any time previously; paupers; persons likely to become a public charge; professional beggars; persons afflicted with tuberculosis or with a loathsome or dangerous contagious disease.”

The pro-eugenics Medical Review of Reviews hired four vagrants to demonstrate on Wall Street in 1915. The picture’s original caption said the signs the men were paid to carry asked “some very pertinent questions.” Some of the signs read, “Would the prisons and asylums be filled if my kind had no children?” and “I can’t read this sign. By what right I have children?”

Trump's eugenecist beliefs are not new [SENSITIVE CONTENT]
I wish I could take a great hot shit in the mouth of every sorry sonofabitch who declared in 2015 that people warning about Trump were just butt-hurt and in hysterics.

from 2020:
Gates’ lifelong obsession is population control. his brand of fascism is called #technolibertarianism.
Silicon Valley technolibertarians are, “#apartheid, but make it tech”.
that's why they’re obsessed with AI #surveillance, genetics, #eugenics, GMOs, Mars (for us not them).
Hanne Dugeman is a Type 1 diabetic who was denied proper medical care in ICE custody.
She lost 10lbs in 9 days.
She experienced severe infections and had to be placed in medical isolation.
She was denied her continuous glucose monitor.
She was given too much insulin & another detainee gave her crackers and saved her life.
She did nothing wrong.
She was married to a US citizen and grabbed at a regular check in
ICE nearly killed her.
It’s eugenics
No one is safe in their custody, least of all disabled people.

How Epstein Infiltrated Big Tech
"Epstein was not cast out after his child sex-crime conviction" in 2008, but remained in Big Tech's inner circle, "including Musk, Bezos, Brin, Page, Gates & Zuckerberg".
"Today, those same figures exert enormous strategic influence" on the Trump govt.

Canadian here so bear with me because I don’t fully understand US gun laws (nor do I understand their attachment TO guns).
What I do know is whenever there’s a mass shooting someone will bring up stricter gun control and the Right wing gun lovers shout “my freedom! You can’t take away my right to protect myself!”
Yet we are seeing a U.S. State attempt to criminalize the wearing of medical masks in all public spaces. Something that is quite literally “personal protective tool”. Why doesn’t our freedom to protect ourselves from infection as much as their freedom to carry a gun?
I can’t see any scenario where someone else would be harmed by an N95 - the same is NOT true for any gun. Yet one is being criminalized and the other isn’t.
I sincerely hope we start hearing more people speak out against criminalizing medical masks if for no other reason than the violation of freedom and bodily autonomy. You don’t have to care about Covid to understand that some people need to wear masks.
It is a very sad example of the state of the world when a person can walk into a pharmacy or grocery store with a gun - but not wearing a medical respirator DURING A PANDEMIC

2025 was the deadliest year on record for ICE.
People are dying in the camps.

Then there’s the deaths you won’t hear as much about.
The disabled. The vulnerable. The homeless or anyone labelled “expendable”.
Never forget that fascism and eugenics go hand in hand.
My latest is about Wael Tarabishi, a 30 year old disabled US citizen who relied on his father for full time care.
ICE grabbed Maher when he showed up for his yearly immigration check in.
Wael pleaded for his release. He told ICE he would die without his caregiver.
They didn’t care. Wael died three months later.
His dad never got to say goodbye.
His story deserves to be told.
ICE ensured his last months were filled with unnecessary pain and suffering.
They killed Wael:

1. Economists from the physiocrats (18th century) onward promised society freedom from material deprivation and hard physical labor in exchange for submitting to an economic arrangement of society
2. In a country like the US, material deprivation and hard physical labor have been significantly reduced since then:
- Though too many clearly still suffer too much, a large proportion of people live free from fear of starvation or lack of shelter
- The US has deindustralized, meaning hard physical labor is not the reality for a lot of people. For a lot of people labor is emotional or symbolic (“knowledge work”)
- In other words, for lots of people the economic promise has been fulfilled
- It is not coincidental that “Gas Town”’s announcement post mentioned Towers of Hanoi, an undergraduate CS student homework problem that for most students requires thinking hard. It’s designed to encourage a kind of “eureka” moment where recursion as a computer programming technique becomes more clear. GT claims to fulfill the promise of not having to think hard like this anymore: the LLMs will do that thinking for you
- It is not coincidental that Gas Town is described as being very expensive. Economic power in the form of asset accumulation is what earns you freedom in this way of conceiving things. If you want the freedom from having to think hard, you’d better accumulate assets
- Since the promise is greater collective freedom, endeavoring to accumulate assets is, in this view, a collective good
- This differs from effective altruism and other “do good by doing well” conceptions. Rather, the very mechanism of economics produces collective wealth, so the story goes, which means the more active one is as an economic agent, the more collective good one produces (“wealth” and “good” being conflated)
- Accumulation of assets is the scorecard, so to speak, of such enhanced economic activity, and the individual reward can then be freedom from having to think hard
- Lotka’s maximum power principle (supposedly) dictates that those entities that transform the most power into useful organization are most fit from an evolutionary standpoint
- Ernst Juenger’s notion of “total mobilization” brings this principle to politics/political economy/geopolitics: those nations that “totally” mobilize their national resources are the ones that will dominate geopolitically
- See, for instance, the RAND Corporation’s Commission on the National Defense Strategy: “The Commission finds that the U.S. military lacks both the capabilities and the capacity required to be confident it can deter and prevail in combat. It needs to do a better job of incorporating new technology at scale; field more and higher-capability platforms, software, and munitions; and deploy innovative operational concepts to employ them together better.” (emphasis mine). In summary: the US is about to be outcompeted (lacks fitness); in response, it should go big (“at scale”, “more”) in an organized way (“deploy innovative operational concepts”, “employ them together better”)
- The rhetoric around LLM-based AI includes similar language, exemplified in the GT post: burn through as much infrastructural resources as possible to produce organized outputs “at scale”, while avoiding having human beings think too hard to produce those outputs, an indication that the power was burned to produce useful organization
- LLM-based AI plays a prominent role in US federal government strategy, particularly military strategy, with language about dominance serving to justify its use
- It is not coincidental that Gas Town uses many orders of magnitude more resources to solve the Towers of Hanoi problem (“Burn All The Gas” Town). This rhetoric dovetails perfectly with the “total mobilization” concept
@GhostOnTheHalfShell it’s worse than that… going back to the roots of #Zionism (after Herzl essentially):
European Zionist colonization of #Palestine was built on explicit racial hierarchies and #eugenics. Arthur Ruppin (Zionism’s dirty little secret), director of the #Palestine Office and architect of Zionist settlement from 1908, promoted pseudoscientific race theories claiming original Jews were non-Semitic “Aryans” who had been corrupted by intermarriage with “inferior” Semitic peoples. Ruppin applied eugenic selection to all Jews - Eastern European, North African, Yemenite, and Ethiopian etc - “admitting” into the “Altneuland” only those deemed racially fit “human material” while rejecting those he classified as degenerate.
The colonization of Palestine was meant for him before the holocaust as a home for racially pure Jews. Sephardic Jews like Herzl were already too assimilated and impure. In fact his racial theories - developed through collaboration with #Nazi racial theorists and later were quoted in Nazi propaganda justifying the Nuremberg Laws - classified Herzl’s nose as “Assyrian-Bukharan” and categorized other Ashkenazi Jews with racialized classifications including “Ashkenazi-Negroid.” In Palestine this biological racism became institutionalized through settlement policies that systematically discriminated against Jews deemed racially inferior. He was the mentor of Zionist leaders like Ben Gurion, and if you know anything about Golda Meir, you’d know she wasn’t too far off from Rupin’s eugenicist swamp both in her views of Arabs and Muslims as well as Arab Jews. Zionism in this context is highly racialized.
Must add that all changed after the #Holocaust, when the Zionist movement found itself with six million fewer European Jews and turned to North African and Middle Eastern Jewish communities to supply the labor and population needed for the colonization of Palestine.
See for example this and many more articles and book by Bloom and others
https://www.haaretz.com/2009-10-08/ty-article/the-makings-of-history-revisiting-arthur-ruppin/0000017f-dc90-db5a-a57f-dcfae53c0000

Today in Labor History January 1, 1934: A "Law for the Prevention of Genetically Diseased Offspring" went into effect in Nazi Germany. The Eugenics research that Hitler used to justify torture and genocide was inspired by similar research from the U.S. The American eugenics movement originated in the 1880s, from the biological determinist ideas of Francis Galton. He believed that selective breeding could improve the human race and allow them to direct their own evolution. The U.S. eugenics movement was heavily funded by the Carnegie Institution, Rockefeller Foundation and the Harriman railroad fortune. Biologist Charles B. Davenport founded the Eugenics Record Office (ERO) in 1911. The ERO trained field workers, who they sent to study people in mental hospitals and orphanages across the U.S. Davenport and others began to lobby for solutions to the problem of the "unfit." They lobbied for immigration restrictions and sterilization. Some even promoted the idea of extermination, well before Hitler became known for it. Some well-known eugenicists of the early 20th century included Alexander Graham Bell, Luther Burbank and Planned Parenthood founder Margaret Sanger. The eugenics movement tended to target the poor, people with disabilities and mental illness, and communities of color as “unfit” for society. Their solutions included forced sterilization, which continued in the U.S. until as recently as 2010. From 1997-2010, California performed nonconsensual sterilizations on roughly 1,400 women prisoners. From 1929-1973, North Carolina sterilized the third highest number of people in the United States, roughly 7,600 people, predominantly African American women.

I miss Dad very much 😢 ❤️ He's been gone for over 2 years now.
I remember this day well. It was an excellent family bonding day. We had a nice dinner after a short walk together. 3 months after this photo was taken, Dad had to go to ER for a leg muscles issue. He was infected with covid by unmasked hospital staff. It happened shortly after our eugenics government removed public masking mandates. Dad ended up dying from covid related cardiac arrest, the following Summer.
I have never forgiven the #BCgovernment or #unmasked #hospital staff for killing my Dad. We had him fully protected with home #caregiving for years. It took less than 2 days in hospital for him to get #covid.
Please #WearAMask. Please don't let my Dad & others who died from getting covid from unmasked people, to be forgotten. It could be you or your family members, next. Covid doesn't care if you believe in it or not - it will end up wrecking your life, one way or another.

Dad seated at a table, wearing a gray Puma sweatshirt, smiles while holding a spoon over a plate of food. Mom stands behind him with her hands on his shoulders. The plate contains mashed potatoes, turkey, cranberry sauce, and broccoli.
The disabled were one of the first groups targeted by the Nazis because they knew people wouldn’t fight for us.
They knew that most people see the disabled as an expendable, so it’s easy to commit atrocities against us.
They called us “useless eaters” and threw us away
Trump using the R slur is not a mistake. It’s not a slip up. It’s not him just being a cranky old man.
He’s testing the waters.
He’s trying to see what he can get away with.
He’s furthering a eugenicist agenda.

Last week Trump called Tim Walz the ‘R slur’.
He then doubled down on it, and now his base have begun harassing the entire Walz family.
Memes are circulating on socials encouraging people to drive past their house and yell it at them.
I’ve been personally called that word more than 1,000 times in the last seven days.
We can’t allow this to happen. The disability community has fought far too hard for far too long to remove that word from the public vernacular.
This is ableism at it’s most ugly, and ableism feeds eugenics and eugenics feeds fascism.
Help us fight back. We are not expendable.

"This deliberate undermining of public health is framed as part of a dangerous, eugenicist worldview shared by influential figures and right-wing ideologues. It operates on a survival of the fittest premise, where a 'culling' of the weak is acceptable."

Without naming them directly, the document says the #US should be “cultivating resistance” across #Europe by supporting political parties that fight against #immigration & promote [white] #nationalism. That describes several #FarRight populist parties like #ReformUK in Britain and the… #AfD in #Germany, which has been classified as an #extremist party by German intelligence services.
#Trump #geopolitics #racism #WhiteSupremacy #GreatReplacementTheory #fascism #MasterRace #Nazis #eugenics
…In a section called “Promoting European Greatness,” the document offers a searing critique of the #US’ closest #allies.
It warns that #Europe is on a path to becoming “unrecognizable” because of #immigration policies that it claims are undermining the national identities of European countries. And it says that the policy of the US should be to help Europe “correct its current trajectory” over the…next several decades.

“We want Europe to remain European, to regain its civilizational self-confidence & to abandon its failed focus on regulatory suffocation,” the 33-page document says.

#Trump has made no secret of his disdain for the political leadership in #Europe, & he has repeatedly pressured those leaders to bend to his will on funding for #NATO, #trade & #tariffs.

#JDVance issued a broad critique of Europe’s mainstream political parties in a speech in Munich in February & urged them to end the isolation of #FarRight parties….
But the document released overnight is the clearest statement yet of how #Trump wants his “America First” [more like #WhiteChristianHeteroCisMaleSupremacy] #ForeignPolicy to be a clarion call for other #nationalist politicians to overhaul their political systems.
#US #WhiteSupremacy #GreatReplacementTheory #fascism #Nazis #eugenics
It echoes some of the language of the #GreatReplacementTheory, a nationalist #ConspiracyTheory embraced by some of his top aides that warns of a deliberate effort to replace white people with nonwhite immigrants.
The document accuses the #EU & other “transnational bodies” of undermining liberty & sovereignty, censoring free speech & trampling on basic principles of “democracy” to suppress political opposition. [projection much?]
“The growing influence of patriotic [fascist] European parties indeed gives cause for great optimism,” the document says. “Our goal should be to help #Europe correct its current trajectory.”
Within hours of its release, the document was already provoking sharp retorts from across Europe.

… “It’s a frontal attack on the European Union,” said #BrandoBenifei, an Italian member of the European Parliament who chairs the delegation for relations with the #UnitedStates.

…The #Trump admin’s approach to #Europe, as described in the strategy document, was in stark contrast to the way it said it would treat some countries in other parts of the world.
A section of the document titled “The Middle East: Shift Burdens, Build Peace”argues that while the #US should “continue to encourage”the countries in the region to combat radicalism, it should not overly meddle in their internal concerns.

The #Trump admin said on Friday that #Europe was facing the “stark prospect of civilizational erasure” & pledged that the #UnitedStates would support like-minded “patriotic” parties across the continent to prevent a future in which “certain #NATO members will become majority non-European.”

There’s a reason I keep tagging #HealthyIfYoureWealthy, #SocialCleansing & #eugenics on #ACIP posts.
While we can all say these people are nuts, we’re not listening to their advice, that’s great, but this “official” federal advisory committee’s guidelines are how #HealthInsurance determines what #vaccines they cover & what you have to pay out-of-pocket.
Meaning #poor families won’t be able to #afford to choose differently than what these incompetent ConsiracyTheorist #AntiVaxxers have chosen.
This kind of #policy making — the #ACIP childhood #vaccine schedule, combined with not extending #ACA subsidies, adding #WorkRequirements to #SNAP / #FoodStamps & #Medicaid — all coming simultaneously in 2026 — is going to be an assault upon the #poor people of the #UnitedStates all while we are in a #Kshaped #economy with the #WealthGap ever widening.

Francis Galton, pioneering figure of the eugenics movement, believed that good research practice should consist in “gathering as many facts as possible without any theory or general principle that might prejudice a neutral and objective view of these facts” (Jackson et al., 2005). Karl Pearson, statistician and fellow purveyor of eugenicist methods, approached research with a similar ethos: “theorizing about the material basis of heredity or the precise physiological or causal significance of observational results, Pearson argues, will do nothing but damage the progress of the science” (Pence, 2011). In collaborative work with Pearson, Weldon emphasised the superiority of data-driven methods which were capable of delivering truths about nature “without introducing any theory” (Weldon, 1895).From The Immortal Science of ML: Machine Learning & the Theory-Free Ideal.
I've lost the reference, but I suspect it was Meredith Whittaker who's written and spoken about the big data turn at Google, where it was understood that having and collecting massive datasets allowed them to eschew model-building.
The core idea being critiqued here is that there's a kind of scientific view from nowhere: a theory-free, value-free, model-free, bias-free way of observing the world that will lead to Truth; and that it's the task of the scientist to approximate this view from nowhere as well as possible.

The present perspective outlines how epistemically baseless and ethically pernicious paradigms are recycled back into the scientific literature via machine learning (ML) and explores connections between these two dimensions of failure. We hold up the renewed emergence of physiognomic methods, facilitated by ML, as a case study in the harmful repercussions of ML-laundered junk science. A summary and analysis of several such studies is delivered, with attention to the means by which unsound research lends itself to social harms. We explore some of the many factors contributing to poor practice in applied ML. In conclusion, we offer resources for research best practices to developers and practitioners.From The reanimation of pseudoscience in machine learning and its ethical repercussions here: https://www.cell.com/patterns/fulltext/S2666-3899(24)00160-0. It's open access.
In other words ML--which includes generative AI--is smuggling long-disgraced pseudoscientific ideas back into "respectable" science, and rejuvenating the harms such ideas cause.

Rather than get mired in the thought-terminating arguments around political parties or political factions, though, I think we'd do well to reflect on what sorts of other ways of thinking feed into this one: the measured life; standardized testing; the internet of things (sensors); tracking apps of various kinds; electronic health records; data science as a profession and Big Data generally; predictive modeling; generative AI and other optimization-oriented or productivity-promising technology. All of these function to render life as an object of knowledge in one way or another. All of them trace their origins through eugenics and the patterns of thought that led to it, and all of them threaten to enable and enhance further eugenic thinking. This is not to say these things are always all bad; this is meant to be a reflection on what exactly they're for.
Why read the number of steps your FitBit told you you took today, unless there were some sense in which you want your future self to be better than your present self? It's not an accident that this is called "physical fitness", "fitness" being the Darwinian concept describing which organisms should survive. Why subject children to standardized testing unless there were some belief it made them better students? To what end tends to be left out. Why adopt a technology meant to improve productivity, unless you're of the belief that improvement (optimization) were even possible?
Generally speaking, if one is able to bring oneself to believe that a human being is made better by a data-informed technical intervention, isn't one playing the same game as these anti-autism anti-vaxxers, just with different terminology? If your answer to this provocation is that your data is better than theirs or that you're more aligned with reality than they are--some variation of "the science is on our side"--you've ceded the territory: this is more of the same optimization logic that brought us to this point to begin with. I think we have no choice but to do better than this.
That's my reflection anyway.

Predatory Data
Eugenics in Big Tech and Our Fight for an Independent Futurehttps://bookshop.org/p/books/predatory-data-eugenics-in-big-tech-and-our-fight-for-an-independent-future-anita-say-chan/21312207
There's a nearly straight line from 20th century eugenics to 21st century big data and data science. Google, the bastion of big data, was founded by two Stanford graduate students; Stanford was founded by a eugenicist and instituted eugenics principles. Francis Galton--inventor of the regression analysis that forms the backbone of data science--was "hot or notting" London with a counter hidden in his pocket long before Harvard-age Zuckerberg recuperated the same with the favorite quantification technology of our day, computers.
"The measured life" is a eugenics concept. All these doohickeys that collect data with the promise of making your body a bit more "fit"? Eugenicist in origin. Eugenics is about "optimizing" the physical "fitness" of people. Apps that help you learn, make you more mentally "fit"? Also have origins in eugenics. Eugenics is also about "optimizing" the mental "fitness" of people. Hence the obsession with IQ.
This isn't to say you shouldn't take care of your body and mind in whichever ways you want. I do think it's important, though, to periodically reflect on, and ask yourself hard questions about, what's driving those efforts and what the goals really are. Part of understanding why eugenics thinking is resurging so hard and fast in the US is understanding its roots, where that type of thinking comes from. It's also important to reflect on where the apps and devices you use to achieve these goals come from. How many come directly or indirectly from Stanford, which was built by eugenicists to achieve eugenic goals, and its offshoots?
Trump and Musk are literally repeating themes from Francis Galton's eugenics out in the open now. They're confident they can get away with it without pushback because the ground was laid long ago. But eugenics didn't suddenly become bad again because coarse people started saying the quiet part out loud. It's always been bad thinking, bad science, and bad morality.
#DataScience #eugenics #BigData #fitness #US #IQ #Trump #Musk
It's a short step from "extinction"/"unsuccessful" ("low fitness") to "elimination". The latter word is what is meant. The passive voice/inevitability framing purposely obscures the agency of the literal, nameable human beings who are attempting to bring this reality into existence. "Embrace #AI or we will do our best to eliminate your profession, your livelihood, and you" is more precise and brings out the hostility of the threat these corporate statements attempt to hide.
This dehumanizing and ultimately eugenic idea frequently hides in plain sight like this. Sometimes evolutionary or genetic language and metaphors are used. Don't accept it. These folks may try to create this reality but that doesn't mean they'll succeed and it doesn't mean we need to surrender and let them succeed.
Mars does not have a magnetosphere. Any discussion of humans ever settling the red planet can stop right there, but of course it never does.From https://defector.com/neither-elon-musk-nor-anybody-else-will-ever-colonize-mars...
The South Pole is around 2,800 meters above sea level, and like everywhere else on Earth around 44 million miles closer to the sun than any point on Mars. It sits deep down inside the nutritious atmosphere of a planet teeming with native life. Compared to the very most hospitable place on Mars it is an unimaginably fertile Eden. Here is a list of the plant-life that grows there: Nothing. Here is a list of all the animals that reproduce there: None.
Life on earth writ large, the grand network of life, is a greater and more dynamic terraforming engine than any person could ever conceive. It has been operating ceaselessly for several billions of years. It has not yet terraformed the South Pole or the summit of Mount Everest. On what type of timeframe were you imagining that the shoebox of lichen you send to Mars was going to transform Frozen Airless Radioactive Desert Hell into a place where people could grow wheat?
