If those people were real, what else did they produce?

Damn, this guy went super hard.
On the Birth of a Son
Families when a child is born
Hope it will turn out intelligent.
I, through intelligence
Having wrecked my whole life,
Only hope that the baby will prove
Ignorant and stupid.
Then he’ll be happy all his days
And grow into a cabinet minister.
This made me laugh
Thanks, that should be enough for diving down a research rabbit hole!
