eugenicist
Human selection proponent
A eugenicist is someone who advocates or practices eugenics—the belief that the human population can be improved through selective breeding.
The term often carries negative connotations due to the movement's association with forced sterilization programs and Nazi racial policies: The eugenicists of the early twentieth century promoted ideas now widely condemned.
