The ruling class seems to think human nature can and should be adapted to machines and government by AI, and Russell probably would agree. It should be the other way around, that machines, government and AI should be adapted to human nature. That Russell could not see this is proof that he was better adapted to his class than to his species.
100 years later and in times where the negotioations for the next 100 years are already finished the eugenicist of the 20th century are apologizing: We are so sorry, sorry, sorry.
Beside ideological aims every totalitarian system is grounded into szientokracy, technocraca, psychocracy based on believes that this wholeness in futuere, this whole better life for all, this whole equity for all is reachable.
I wonder whether Russell had inside knowledge or if what he wrote was from insight and imagination. It certainly was a prequel for what is happening now, today. At the least, it shows the mindset and goals of population reductionists and totalitarian rulers going back 60+ years ago. As usual and to their detriment, the human mass chose to ignore the warnings. It is a little like ignoring the yellow light some distance away, then having to react to the red light a mere few feet from the signal. Will the human animal become a thinking species before it is too late? Time in now of the essence.

In the meanwhile they are financing since centuries the base for the next round of eugenic societies in the 21st century.
And on both ideological sides are too many people who are convinced it is a good idea to follow a holistic approach in policy.
Das Heil. Das Ganze.
Selbst da klingelt meist nichts. Trotz der bekannten Geschichte und des allen bekannten Grußes.

A very well done reconstruction of the continuity of eugenic/authoritarian-totalitarian ideology is to find here: https://escapekey.substack.com/p/alexander-bogdanov
That it is so easy that just a very small group are not blinded through psychologization of every political issue.
the whole human.
the whole humanity.
the whole government approach.
the whole = planetary approach.
the whole system approach allows that resilience means financing weapons is part of green economy.
welcome to the global totalitarianism in the name of ONE, this wholeness.

Thank you for sharing this. I find no words to express how appalled I am by the psychopathic technocratic neo-feudalism evident in Russell's thinking😱
