Shots puts an amusing spin on the little-known history of eugenics. It traces the genocidal, anti-ethnic eugenics movement which resulted in the sterilization and elimination of millions.

By that year the wealthiest had bought and controlled the media, and censored medical experts that criticized government actions.
