Epstein's Breeder Ranch: Transhumans to Populate Maxwell's TerraMar?
Jeffrey Epstein, Cartoon Villain, Wanted to Start a ‘Baby Ranch’ and Flood Humanity With His DNA: Report
The financier wanted to inseminate 20 women at a time at his sprawling New Mexico ranch, according to scientists who talked to The New York Times.
Millionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein wanted to impregnate women at his New Mexico ranch and flood the human race with his DNA, The New York Times reports.
The disturbing revelation comes as the 66-year-old faces child sex-trafficking charges for his molestation of girls in Manhattan and Palm Beach, Florida. According to the Times, Epstein discussed his sickening scheme with scientists and other confidants for years, “although there is no evidence that it ever came to fruition.”
Epstein, who has long boasted of his scientific philanthropy and association with academics like Stephen Hawking, reportedly wanted to inseminate 20 women at a time inside his 33,000-square-foot Zorro Ranch in Stanley, New Mexico.
The perverted money-manager told scientists and businessmen about his goals for a “baby ranch” beginning in the early 2000s, the Times reported.
Indeed, the hair-raising plan was no secret to those in Epstein’s orbit. One adviser to large companies told the Times that Epstein told him of the idea during a gathering at Epstein’s Manhattan mansion. The adviser also heard about Epstein’s plot from another “prominent member of the business community,” the newspaper said.
This nightmarish proposal related to Epstein’s fascination with transhumanism, which is the idea that scientists should “seize control of human evolution” and achieve immortality through genetic engineering and artificial intelligence. As the Times notes, critics have compared transhumanism to a revival of eugenics, a philosophy of controlled breeding to improve the population that was embraced by the Nazis.
Meanwhile, Epstein talked of financing research that would “identify a mysterious particle that might trigger the feeling that someone is watching you,” according to the Times.
“Epstein was also interested in cryogenics and wanted to have his head and penis frozen.”
And during a visit to Harvard, Epstein reportedly disparaged work focusing on reducing starvation and providing health care to the poor—suggesting that helping those less fortunate only contributed to overpopulation.
Steven Pinker, a cognitive psychologist at Harvard, said he found himself “voted off the island” after he disputed Epstein’s views. Pinker described Epstein as an ‘intellectual imposter” who “would abruptly change the subject, A.D.D.-style” and “dismiss an observation with an adolescent wisecrack.”
Jaron Lanier, a computer scientist regarded as a founding father of virtual reality, said Epstein based his dreams for a “baby ranch” on the defunct Repository for Germinal Choice, a so-called “genius sperm bank” stocked with seed of Olympic athletes and Nobel laureates.
According to the Times, Lanier believed Epstein was using his dinner parties to screen candidates to bear Epstein’s children.

Jeffrey Epstein Dreamed of ‘Improving’ Humanity With a Baby-Making Ranch (and His DNA)
Accused #sextrafficker Jeffrey Epstein toyed with an unorthodox plan for shaping the future of the human race: He imagined impregnating as many as 20 women at a time at his New Mexico ranch, distributing his DNA for the betterment of our species, The New York Times reported today (July 31).
Epstein is thought to have drawn inspiration from an ideology that had purportedly intrigued him for decades. Known as “transhumanism,” it describes manipulating or augmenting human genetics using technologies such as artificial intelligence and gene-editing, according to the Times.
But Epstein’s plan had closer ties to a precursor of transhumanism: eugenics. This now-discredited movement, once popular in scientific and academic circles in the Western world, also championed shaping a “better” human race, through selective breeding for certain traits. However, so-called undesirable traits were generally those associated with minorities and people who were poor and uneducated, according to the Historical Collections at the Claude Moore Health Science Libraries, at the University of Virginia(UV).

Over many years, Epstein wined and dined a number of notable scientists and peppered them with questions and his own opinions about human genetics, according to the Times. He invited scientists to lavish parties and dinners, sponsored their attendance at conferences and even funded their research.
At many of these gatherings, Epstein would talk to researchers about DNA, “superior humans” and his plans for inseminating women at his ranch.
“It was not a secret,” the Times wrote.
The concept of eugenics — breeding an “improved” human race by encouraging only intelligent and “healthy” people to have more children — emerged toward the end of the 19th century. In the United States and Germany, those who championed eugenics also stoked fears of “race degeneration,” suggesting that the human race would become weaker, sicker and less intelligent due to higher reproductive rates among poor people and people of color, according to the UV Historical Collection.
But despite Epstein’s avid interest in establishing a personal breeding program, there is no evidence that his baby-making project ever got off the ground, the Times reported.
