His views on eugenics were particularly creepy, even from an academic perspective.
- darawk 6y agoEpstein? You could easily be referring to the other three I mentioned too, i'm legitimately unsure.
- strathmeyer 6y agoEpstein wanted an island of pregnant women raising his babies.
- gojomo 6y agoAnd yet, for someone who certainly had the resources, Epstein seems to have had... no children at all? (Or has he simply successfully hidden his parentage?)
- ChainOfFools 6y agoLarry Hillblom (the H in DHL) did just exactly that.
- ourcat 6y agoYes, Epstein. There's a few trustworthy articles out there which share a quote that he 'hoped to seed the human race with his DNA'. He had allegedly confided with quite a few people about it.
- MaximumYComb 6y agoIt's creepy by modern western norms but it's been a fairly basic drive in rich and powerful men for a long time. Look at the percentage of men who share Y chromosomes from Genghis Khan, or the sultans who kept large harems.
- ndespres 6y agoI don't understand why that's relevant. You should know that your comment reads as an excuse or an acceptance for the deeply creepy and awful things that Epstein said and did, not sure if you meant it that way so I'll give you the benefit of the doubt.
- MaximumYComb 6y agoWhich awful thing did I even remotely justify? My comment was in reference to the comment I replied to, which was: >'hoped to seed the human race with his DNA I then gave examples of powerful men attempting to seed the human race with their DNA. I make zero justification of exploiting/grooming underage girls, that's an entirely seperate issue.
- Alkhwarizmi 6y agoYOU equated the two and justified his intentions as equivalent to “other powerful men” not from west, further suggesting some sort of racial bias as well hidden in your comments. Stop while you’re ahead and don’t embarrass yourself like this again.

- fouc 6y agoDoesn't seem like he had kids, or at least publicly.
- chromedev 6y agoAre you referring to Bill Gates?
