Hugh Moore (1887-1972), the Dixie-Cup magnate who funded 'The Population Bomb.'
In the engine he is the figure who repackaged eugenics as a national-security issue.
Through the Hugh Moore Fund's pamphlet 'The Population Bomb,' he reframed population growth as a driver of communism and nuclear war, turning demographic control into a Cold War security concern and rebranding eugenics as a security-based justification for controlling foreign reproduction.
He matters as the person who gave eugenics a fresh, respectable disguise — recasting it as protecting national security rather than sorting human worth; the engine treats him as a structural antecedent with no coordinating hand.
