Intelligence is power, and there must be a way to use this power to gain a reproductive advantage over the r-selected thugs.

Up until recently, survival pressures have done a good job of making sure intelligent people have some reproductive advantage. But now in the complete absence of survival pressures, intelligent people must find a way to tilt the reproductive pressures in their favor.

I imagine this will require some kind of a breakthrough. And like technological breakthroughs such as the steam engine, Maxwell's equations, the transistor, it may may take a long time for it to be devised and may require Nobel Prize worthy ingenuity.
