Breedings and Eugenics Project

The tech and venture capital class is engaged in a centrally organized breeding program to grow their numbers, using fertility and eugenics technologies created by their startups.

Since 2022, with the launch of Andreessen Horowitz's American Dynamism platform, there has been an advanced propaganda campaign aimed at producing more children in the tech class, with the ultimate goal of building an elite, "high IQ" civilization. Eugenics ideology and IQ supremacy are rife, and they are building dozens of fertility, IVF, surrogacy and genetic screening startups to support their mission. This project unfolds within the Network State, which provides regulation-free medical development sites, has breeding as a primary purpose, and provides a civilizational mission and motive to produce a larger population and eugenics program.

Technological Supermen

In his "Techno-Optimist Manifesto", Marc Andreessen describes "Becoming Technological Supermen", stating "We believe in deliberately and systematically transforming ourselves into the kind of people who can advance technology." He writes "We believe intelligence is the ultimate engine of progress. Intelligence makes everything better. Smart people and smart societies outperform less smart ones on virtually every metric we can measure. Intelligence is the birthright of humanity; we should expand it as fully and broadly as we possibly can."

Venture capitalists have an explicit model of ideal and superior humanity, expressed in notions of the "10x engineer" and industry mythology of the "hacker" and the "founder". The ideal is a young, white, technical male who can found a company or be a highly productive technical employee. Marc Andreessen's quote of "transforming ourselves into the kind of people who can advance technology" demonstrates that the goal of their breeding and eugenics program is to generate more white men who can advance the technology industry, and thus venture capital's portfolios and profits.

The tech industry is notoriously sexist, and venture capital itself has significantly more inequality than the general technical workforce. In 2024, over 83% of venture capital funding went to all-male founding teams, with women-founded teams receiving only 2.3% of capital; further, men overwhelmingly dominate positions of power in venture capital, as "Women hold approximately 15.4% of partner or decision-making roles at VC firms". According to Crunchbase, "The share of U.S. startup funding going to companies with Black founders hit a multiyear low in 2024, even as overall funding ticked slightly higher. Only around $730 million — or 0.4% of all funding — went to startups with a Black founder or co-founder last year. That’s the lowest share in years, and down more than two-thirds from just three years ago." Black women are particularly underrepresented in startups, venture capital funding and venture capital firms.

As this model is extrapolated into a breeding and eugenics program, the project is profoundly white supremacist, anti-Black, and anti-woman; the Network State civilization that results will be predominantly white men and a small number of white women, and few to zero Black people of any gender. Further, the extreme misogyny of the venture capital class creates the need for reproductive technologies that don't rely on women, or can rely on a small number of women, such as the development of "external gestation machines."

The Population Crisis, Eugenics Technology

In an early 2023 podcast, Marc Andreessen discusses solutions to the "population crisis", promoting IQ engineering and eugenics:

"Another possibility here is, are we gonna have scientific breakthroughs, so everything we've talked about up until now is assumed as the natural progress of human birth and reproduction, the old fashioned way. Are we gonna have cloning of embryos, are we gonna have external gestation machines, are we gonna have embryos created from stem cells, such that you could decide in your 60s its time to have a new baby, and you could have the embryo cloned out of your stem cells and then have the baby raised in a gestation tank for 9 months and out the other end comes a baby?

Are those technologies being developed now? Yes. Are they gonna freak people out? Yes. [laughing]. Are they necessary for the perpetuation of the species? Quite possibly...

There's another giant question that's coming up which is the big genetic engineering question. And so for example, this is not on the horizon right now, but there's very very cutting edge work happening in the genomics field, to identify all the genes that are associated with intelligence. We're already up to like 200 genes that correlate to like half of IQ. Let's assume we're moving into a world in which we're increasingly going to be engineering babies, which I think is a real possibility for the reasons we just discussed, are we also going to be optimizing them, is there going to be a CRISPR treatment that you can just dial up and order in 10 or 20 years, where you can give your stem cell clone embryo a 20 or 30 point IQ boost, so maybe on the other side of this are like these sortof superbabies, right.

Where we come out the other side of this and we sortof technically engineer ourselves not just to perpetuate the species, but an upgraded species where all of the sudden the babies are all coming out much much smarter, and then as a consequence they're able to do all kinds of things better through their lives, so maybe there's a technological utopia on the other side of this. On the other hand maybe this is some sort of catastrophic moral [laughing], philosophical civilizational collapse where we've given up on the inherent spirit of what it means to be human. We're just in terminal decline and we're gonna use, this cyberpunk view of it, we're going to use technology as a bandaid to cover up what otherwise is kindof a hard crash. I don't know. I will say like these issues are real and they're forming up, everything you and i just talked about, it's all real, it's all gonna happen."

Andreessen lists Nick Land as a "patron saint" of techno-optimism in his famous Techno-Optimist Manifesto. Nick Land is a key collaborator with Curtis Yarvin in the development of the Dark Enlightenment philosophy. One major theme of Land's work is that an elite group will leverage eugenics technologies to advance so far beyond the existing population that it will create speciation - a new species; contrasting this with "ordinary racism", Land's essay Hyper-Racism states:

"The problem with ordinary racism is its utter incomprehension of the near future. Not only will capabilities for genomic manipulation dissolve biological identity into techno-commercial processes of yet-incomprehensible radicality, but also … other things... The genetically self-filtering elite is not merely different — and becoming ever more different — it is explicitly superior according to the established criteria that allocate social status... Neo-eugenic genomic manipulation capabilities, which will also be unevenly distributed by SES [socioeconomic status], will certainly intensify the trend to speciation, rather than ameliorating it."

The conclusion of Land's famous essay series The Dark Enlightenment addresses speciation as well, stating "Techno-scientific auto-production... is not merely an evolutionary event, but the threshold of a new evolutionary phase." Land turns to quotes from John H. Campbell and eugenics publication euvolution to illustrate his point, respectively:

"1. Most evolutionary change is associated with the origin of new species. 2. Several modes of evolution may operate simultaneously. In this case the most effective dominates the process. 3. Tiny minorities of individuals do most of the evolving instead of the species as a whole."

"Reasoning that the majority of humankind will not voluntarily accept qualitative population-management policies, Campbell points out that any attempt to raise the IQ of the whole human race would be tediously slow. He further points out that the general thrust of early eugenics was not so much species improvement as the prevention of decline. Campbell’s eugenics, therefore, advocates the abandonment of Homo sapiens as a ‘relic’ or ‘living fossil’ and the application of genetic technologies to intrude upon the genome, probably writing novel genes from scratch using a DNA synthesizer. Such eugenics would be practiced by elite groups, whose achievements would so quickly and radically outdistance the usual tempo of evolution that within ten generation the new groups will have advanced beyond our current form to the same degree that we transcend apes."

Network State Natalism

In 2022, with the launch of Andreessen Horowitz's American Dynamism campaign, a radical form of elite natalism emerged as a central part of its ideology. Andreessen Horowitz partners began a propaganda campaign aimed at increasing the birth rate in the venture capital and tech class.

This ideology is intertwined with the Network State; as venture capitalists model the Network State after Israel, they view Israel as a technocratic state and a model for population growth. In 2022, Andreessen Horowitz partner Ryan McEntush -- from its American Dynamism practice -- wrote an editorial for venture capital publication PirateWire, called Vanishing People: the Population Crisis:

"The developed world is old. It has also stopped having children. When trying to understand this problem, a key measurement to pay attention to is fertility rate — anything under 2.1, or rather the children born per woman that exceeds both parents, equates to a net decrease in population after accounting for childhood death...

With a fertility rate of 2.9, Israel bucks the global trend. While it doesn’t have the population to make the necessary dent on the global economy, it provides a fascinating study of the impact of culture on population growth. Jewish diaspora conforms to expected sluggish trends, but we don’t see that in Israel. Segmenting further provides some insight.

As expected, religiosity correlates with fertility, yet, surprisingly, even secular Israeli women have remained above the fabled 2.1 fertility rate. What’s more, they’ve been able to achieve this despite having among the highest levels of women participation in the labor force. This defies explanation, but I will attempt one anyway. Israel exemplifies asabiyyah, or rather the cohesive force that bonds a people, grown stronger by harsh conditions. Israelis know conflict all too well, and I believe this is reflected in an innate sense of duty to have children and prolong the vitality of their state.

This points to a worrisome conclusion. If it is indeed this strong social cohesion that can reignite fertility rates, let’s be honest: liberal democracies face an uphill battle...

In truth, the solution to the population crisis is no doubt multi-faceted and will be unique to different societies, consisting of a mix of the ideas shared above and new ones yet to be explored... In our strife, we must not fall victim to the siren calls of collectivist ideologies that decry the growth-oriented, free markets that have built the modern world, and with which we might one day grow so numerous and colonize the stars."

The Network State book also discusses the concept of asabiyyah, as one of the societal progressions synthesized in the Network State: "... the rise of a small group of highly aligned Spartans. They grow on the borders of empire, so-called 'marcher lords' with a strong sense of ingroup spirit, what Ibn Khaldun would call asabiyyah. Then they radiate out and start conquering the world. Their indomitable will carves a swath through the degenerate empire that surrounds them. They eventually achieve total victory."

The war-like, genocidal nature of tech fascism is articulated inside the American Dynamism practice at the same time it promotes birth and prosperity for its own class. American Dynamism produces weapon startups Anduril, Skydio, ShieldAI, Hadrian, Saronic and others; Skydio and ShieldAI in particular are used in the genocide of Palestinians, which kills an average of 28 Palestinian children daily. Andreessen Horowitz is engaged in mass murder of Palestinian children at the same time it looks to expand its own birth rate.

American Dynamism's head venture capitalist, Katherine Boyle, has led propaganda efforts to stimulate a tech fascist baby boom; following up on partner Ryan McEntush's comments above, she states:

“I’d encourage everyone to read Ryan’s piece, because it’s about much more than the fertility crisis. One of the questions it posed for me is how Israel can represent a technological and pro-family society simultaneously. Israel has one of the most research-intensive tech and business sectors for any developed country, with about 5 percent of its GDP invested in R&D annually. This is noteworthy and overlooked, because many of the current ideological debates among the right and the left are about how the family is at odds with technology. Indeed, much of our catastrophizing is anti-tech and anti-growth.

In the minds of the pessimists, industrialization and growth is the enemy of the planet and the source of our political disagreement. And yet, Israel—a technological powerhouse— is the only developed country that has managed to increase its birthrate above replacement levels (now at 3.1 children per woman) while also making intense technological investments for its future. It’s possible this is coincidence and there are clearly many other factors at play, but my view is that if all of history is a war between the family (tribes) and the state (central authority), technology is likely more aligned with strengthening the family—it’s impossible to a have a family and not be future-oriented and anti-status quo in the same way it’s impossible to build a company or a new technology and not be looking to the next year or the next decade.”

This fits into Network State beliefs that the nation-state is the enemy; escaping it, into a tech fascist state, is the solution to the stated "population crisis." The natalism that surfaces is consistently anti nation-state, in keeping with Network State ideology: "All of history is a war between the family and the state" (link). Boyle applies venture capital and startup logics like "scale" towards a new form of techno-natalism: "Everything great scales. Companies. Families. Nations. Religions. The meme for most things is 'big is bad' or 'big is hard.' But the benefits of scale can be felt in ways you would never anticipate, on timelines that are hard for us to truly comprehend. Big families achieve different generational outcomes than little ones. The same is true of institutions. The benefits that come from truly great organizational design usually can’t be seen in years or decades" (link).

Boyle authored an article in March 2025 titled "The Great Tech-Family Alliance" -- one of many similar articles and speeches with the same theme -- stating:

"we are now living through a generational political shift, whereby an industry of builders can choose to ally with the most organic, nurturing, and future-focused institution that nature has ever created: the family. And I believe it’s in the best interest of both tech and the family to do so... One, we must change the way we work. Two, we must change the way we educate our children. And three, we must work to radically transform the culture by making families a priority again... the philosophy of American dynamism is that building in and of itself is a good thing. And building a family is the ultimate good. There is nothing that focuses us more on the future, because no company can compete with the longevity of the family; it is the institution built for scale, for infinity, that will continue for long after we’ve left this earth."

Balaji Srinivasan, author of the Network State, spoke at the Natal Conference in 2023:

"... if you form a community online, and you crowdfund some territory offline, you could set up something where you have, let's say you've got even 100 people, you could set up the entire community around 'remote work + child rearing'. So you have a centralized childcare facility, maybe a gym alongside it so adults can work out, maybe there's some karma system where you drop off your child. And let's say you've got 30 families, each family has one day where they're looking after the other people's children, and there's probably some sort of round robin set of incentives for having children, for taking care of them, where you've got essentially an extended family trusted community, where you can look after their kids and they can look after yours... once you have some economies of scale it's not just about the money but it's about proximity and it's about trust, you could probably radically reduce the cost of childcare and make it easier to raise your kids in an environment where they could share their values, so I do think the community part is a big part of it."

Edge Esmeralda is a Network State project in California, describing itself as "a multigenerational community where families thrive together," seeking to establish a permanent settlement in Sonoma County. Founded by a Pronomos Capital venture capitalist, the site has a significant focus on reproduction and raising children, stating in a post called "Kids at Edge Esmeralda: It takes a village to raise a child", "One of our major goals for Edge Esmeralda is to integrate family life with creative life. While most people live in nuclear families, our goal is to break that mold and give families a more connected way to relate to their community. We take seriously the idea that 'it takes a village to raise a child', and we believe it’s good for everyone in the community for kids to be more integrated into it as well."

Startups for Eugenics and Fertility

The emergence of a tech fascist breeding program unfolds within large-scale venture capital funding of fertility and eugenics technologies, executed through its many startups.

According to a February 2025 report by Pitchbook,

"The female technology (femtech) sector—focused on technology-driven solutions for women’s health—has been experiencing rapid investment and growth, with more than $5 billion of VC funding since 2020 and $1.2 billion of funding in 2024 alone. In our analysis, femtech includes any product, device, or platform that is primarily, though not exclusively, used by women, and ranges from fertility solutions to maternal health and period-management tools... Over the past 12 months, period tracking and virtual fertility platforms were among the top funding categories in the VC-backed femtech landscape, with $256 million and $165 million of funding, respectively."

The startups include everything for the reproductive lifecycle, including new methodologies to create human eggs, embryonic genetic testing, genetic editing, new IVF platforms, surrogacy and others.

Bootstrap Bio is one of many eugenics startups under development. Profiled by Bloomberg in June 2025:

"A California-startup focused on genetically editing human embryos — a step toward creating so-called designer babies — is raising money as many of Silicon Valley’s ultra-rich turn their attention to one of the most controversial technologies in medicine.

Bootstrap Bio, created about 18 months ago, is working on technology to change the DNA in an embryo, according to two people familiar with the company and one of its investors. Altering those cells to make genetically modified children is intended to eliminate inherited diseases or enhance desirable traits, which can be passed on to future generations.

Scientists and ethicists said the technology known as 'germline editing' is unproven and potentially dangerous. It could have grave consequences if a flaw is introduced into a days-old embryo, with the changes affecting every cell and stage of development. If the technology does work, they fear it could usher in a new era of eugenics and foster further inequality."

Bootstrap Bio is planning to conduct experiments within the Network State of Próspera: "Bootstrap Bio’s future business plans... included a plan to begin human trials in 2026 or 2027 in Honduras, a place where the company could potentially avoid US regulations." Bootstrap Bio participated in a 2024 demo day for founders to pitch potential investors in Próspera.

Conception is a startup funded by Sam Altman, which is working on technologies to turn stem cells into viable human eggs. "We are working on a stem cell technology, called in-vitro gametogenesis (IVG), that could give families the opportunity to still have children at much older ages, eliminate barriers for couples suffering from infertility, and allow everyone to have biological children. Long term, this technology could be a critical platform allowing for widespread genetic screening... This could become one of the most important technologies ever created... We and others have shown that this technology works to make viable mouse eggs, and it can be used to make healthy, live mice."

Glow is an ovulation, pregnancy and period tracker funded by Andreessen Horowitz and Founders Fund; its co-founder and chairman is Max Levchin of the PayPal Mafia and CEO of Affirm. Lushi is a concierge egg freezing company that offers fertility experts, in-home injections, and telehealth; its VIP package is $5000 and includes "Lushi AI". Andreessen Horowitz is an investor in Pomelo Care, a virtual maternal health practice that provides pregnancy and newborn care, advertising "Unlimited access to a team of doctors, midwives, nurses, dietitians, therapists, lactation experts, and more."

Maven Clinic is funded by 8VC (from PayPal Mafia member Joe Lonsdale), Sequoia Capital, Lux Capital and General Catalyst. It provides women and family-focused healthcare plans to employers, including egg freezing, fertility treatments, post-partum and pediatric care, "personalized, 24/7 care from OB-GYNs, doulas, lactation consultants, career coaches, and more". Much of its value proposition is advertised to employers, stating "When the care is better, your employees show up better. With Maven, organizations report higher employee engagement and productivity" and "94% of members report that Maven helped them return or plan their return to work." Maven offers surrogacy coaches and is partnered with Nodal, a VC-funded reproductive agency allowing matching between intending parents and women surrogates. Nodal uses the dating app model of profiles and matching. It intends to add sperm and egg donation as services.

Tech giants have long paid for egg freezing procedures for their employees, with companies including Apple, Facebook and Google. In 2017, Wired documented "several egg-freezing parties for employees of major tech companies. The women were invited to enjoy free drinks and appetizers at a trendy San Francisco restaurant where they could listen to a presentation about the benefits of freezing their eggs. Fertility experts were on hand to field their questions."

In 2025, Wired published an investigative profile of a venture capitalist, Cindy Bi, who allegedly harassed, terrorized and victimized a woman serving as her surrogate. Cindy Bi's firm was backed by Marc Andreessen and David Sacks. The alleged victim wrote "Imagine a journey being treated like a human incubator and not like a person... Imagine a journey where the intended parents leave you to pay all of the medical bills.” The article demonstrates the dehumanization, exploitation of women's bodies, and misogyny involved in the venture capital ideology and breeding program.

In 2020, Andreessen Horowitz published a podcast on "Bioengineering Birth", blurbing

"Infertility is a common struggle with limited treatment options, particularly if caused by an issue with the uterus... Professor Anthony Atala from the Wake Forest School of Medicine [talks] about his lab’s work engineering a replacement uterus that can — incredibly! — support pregnancy and live birth in rabbits. They discuss the Nature Biotechnology article 'A tissue-engineered uterus supports live births in rabbits'; how the Atala lab created these bioengineered uteruses and tested their functionality; what kinds of conditions they can be used to treat; and potential sci-fi-esque applications."

Other VC-backed startups related to fertility include Nucleus Genomics, backed by Founders Fund and the Network State's Balaji Srinivasan, a DNA testing startup advertising "Nucleus IVF+ is a new IVF option for parents who want to give their child the best start in life." It markets itself as "genetic optimization", screening for more than 2000 conditions, stating "choose the best embryo for you. Make thoughtful choices about the health and well-being of your future baby with advanced genetic diagnostics." It claims to have tested over 120,000 embryos. Factors include IQ, hair color, eye color, BMI and obesity, and height, as well as developmental delays, schizophrenia, bipolar, depression, sickle cell disease, migraines, cleft palate, and many more. A full list of genetic screening parameters can be found here. The IVF+ package starts at $24,999.

Orchid is funded by Brian Armstrong of Coinbase, Balaji Srinivasan, and Anne Wojcicki, founder of 23andMe. Orchid claims "Orchid sequences over 99%* of an embryo’s DNA, while alternatives sequence less than 1%. With much more data, more risks can be identified... Use whole genome data to identify monogenic and polygenic diseases. Alternatives miss detecting risks because they do not sequence the whole genome." They screen for bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, autism, Alzheimer's disease, breast and prostate cancer, Type I and Type II diabetes, Celiac disease and others. It states, for example, "Using Orchid’s embryo scoring, you can prioritize the embryo with the lowest genetic risk for bipolar disorder and reduce their risk."

From a 2021 MIT Tech Review article on Orchid: "Gabriel Lázaro-Muñoz, a bioethicist and lawyer at Baylor College of Medicine who has studied polygenic risk scores, says the ability to screen and select embryos for a wide range of traits veers into eugenics territory. 'We have to have a serious conversation about how to use this technology in our society,' he says. Negative attitudes about mental illness are already pervasive, and polygenic risk tests could further stigmatize these conditions. The idea that it’s possible to choose whether or not to reduce a future child’s risk of such conditions puts a lot of pressure on parents, he says. Beyond the issue of mental illness, should parents be able to choose their 'smartest' embryo?"

Lux Capital is a major investor in biotech startups. Lux Capital asks in a 2025 post: "rather than just selecting one of, say, five embryos as the most likely to implant, could parents select an embryo based on the future health prognosis of their child? The cutting-edge option today is known as embryo screening using polygenic scores (or polygenic embryo screening). These products score an embryo for both complex diseases like high blood pressure or Alzheimer’s as well as human characteristics like height. Startups like Orchid (founded by the wife of a close friend) now offer whole-genome reports to couples, who can then select the embryo that has the best score."

One of Andreessen Horowitz's investment theses is "AI x Parenting", as documented by TechCrunch:

"AI-powered parenting is here and a16z is ready to back it. AI wants to help us drive better, write better, and diagnose diseases faster. Now imagine AI helping you be a better parent. Andreessen Horowitz partner Justine Moore introduced a new investment thesis for the firm on X on Thursday, endorsing 'a new wave of ‘parenting co-pilots’ built with LLMs and agents.' She pointed to companies like Cradlewise, makers of an AI-powered baby monitor to detect a baby’s sleep pattern and rock the crib, and Nanit, which uses AI to process crib footage to tell if a baby is breathing. 'Imagine an AI parenting companion that’s always in your corner – ready to answer questions or talk about how you’re feeling at any time of the day (or night),' she wrote. Apps like Soula use AI to gather data on the user and guide mothers through pregnancy and postpartum. 'It’s early for AI x parenting,' Moore wrote. 'There’s much more to do!'”

Conclusion

As the venture capital class works on building its own population, it is engaged in far-ranging attacks on children across the globe.

Anduril, funded by Andreessen Horowitz, In-Q-Tel and Founders Fund, participates in the deportation machine that terrorizes, displaces and abuses children, and separates children from their families. This has progressed significantly under the Trump administration; from the Intercept:

"Anduril Industries is a major beneficiary of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which includes a section that essentially grants the weapons firm a monopoly on new surveillance towers for U.S. Customs and Border Protection across the southern and northern borders. The legislation, signed into law by President Donald Trump on July 4, provides significant spending increases to military and law enforcement projects, including over $6 billion for various border security technologies. Among these initiatives is expanding the ever-widening 'virtual wall' of sensor-laden surveillance towers along the U.S.-Mexico border, where computers increasingly carry out the work of detecting and apprehending migrants..."

The oppression and murder of "undesirable" children -- whether the children of Palestine or immigrant children in the United States and Mexico -- is deeply linked to this fascist eugenics and breeding program.

Historically, eugenics and sterilization practices were not limited to Nazi Germany, but actually adopted by the Nazi regime with inspiration from the United States' own eugenics theory and practice. Throughout the 20th century the U.S. sterilized hundreds of thousands of people- Black, Brown and Indigenous women were among the most targeted.

According to the Holocaust Encyclopedia from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum,

"The Lebensborn program was created by the SS in late 1935 in order to promote the growth of Germany’s healthy 'Aryan' population. The term Lebensborn itself means 'Fount of Life.' The program was designed to be the wellspring of future generations descended from those whom Nazi authorities deemed 'racially valuable.' It originally focused on encouraging SS men to have large families and discouraging unmarried, pregnant 'Aryan' women from seeking illegal abortions...

SS leader Heinrich Himmler believed that the men of the SS were the biological and racial elite of Nazi Germany, and he urged them to have large families. SS members and their brides had to pass medical examinations and establish their 'Aryan' ancestry before they could marry. This measure was taken to ensure that their children would be 'racially valuable.' Himmler personally oversaw many aspects of the Lebensborn program. He encouraged SS men to marry early and have at least four children."

During World War II, "there was a shift from controlling reproduction and marriage to eliminating persons regarded as biological threats." While enacting policies which relegated "racially valuable" women to incubators and increased punishments for those attempting to obtain abortions, the Nazi regime expanded their eugenics program to include involuntarily sterilization of "persons viewed as genetically 'defective' and a burden on national resources." From 1933-1945, "Doctors and other medical personnel carried out the approximately 400,000 sterilization procedures."

Throughout history, eugenics programs have involved both the cultivation and breeding of the "master race", and violence, sterilization, oppression, murder, genocide and elimination of "undesirable" peoples. The tech fascist project is no different.
