Responsibility doesn't require anyone's permission. All we need to do is organize with other responsible people who want to sire a race of Übermensch.
In many ways it's similar to how the diaspora of Jews organize. Only, instead of Jews, it is us responsible people. The only difference is, we don't act like fucking Jews by destabilizing and creating chaos. We just live responsible lives and improve ourselves until, after generations, we out-compete the muggles.

Now we just have to defeat the technocratic eugenic plan which in their valuation is to turn us into cattle for their use.

Well, the goal of the Übermensch would BE to BECOME the technocrats.
Don't confuse my intention though. I'm not saying the current technocrats ARE Übermensch. (Although there might be a few who are worthy. Elon Musk might be a proto-Übermench. I'm not entirely convinced, but, I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt.)
Some form of technocracy is going to be required in a civilization of Übermensch, because we don't need billions of Übermensch. We need maybe a few million Übermensch supported by automation.
The trick here is to be forward thinking and to make sure your descendants are worthy of being Übermensch and not cattle.
For instance, someone who is worthy of the distinction of proto-Übermensch knows that self driving cars are inevitable one way or another it IS going to happen. So, instead of complaining about it, he learns how to be the one building the technology and buying stock in companies who are developing this technology.
On the other hand, the non-proto-Übermensch complains about how technology is going to make him irrelevant, but despite this, he "keeps on trucking" until he is layed off from his job as a long-haul trucker.

Ubermensch would be smart enough to recognize the utter inferiority of a technocracy and the superiority of economic calculation under a free market. you both need to be gassed.
You do hit home, that I am accumulating capital for the gradual replacement for the need for my labor.
