The ubermensch concept was very popular in the early to mid 1900s, and has even been attempted before! Refer to world War 2 and Nazi ideology for more reading on that topic.
If you mean Nietzsche type ubermensch then the broad genetic cultivation needed among most humans that I’m talking about for communism to work is very close to the opposite of that. Nietzsche strongly suggested that humanity needs to go back to a predatory morality that predates Christianity. He advocated that cooperation and communal good was a slave morality and a bad thing.
If You are cleverly hinting that purposeful breeding among humans is a bad thing because Nazis advocated it, then you should go hound people that grow rose bushes and condemn governments that have health departments because Nazis also did that.
If you are surmising that I am personally advocating these things then you have glanced over what I wrote too hastily. I will leave the details as an exercise for you reread and figure out in your own.
