Darwin was misinterpreted in his own day as he is now. The racial component of difference between people has been shown to be insignificant as a scientific element. Genes play a much greater role.

Remember that "the survival of the fittest" is not in Darwin's writing, certainly not in the Origin Of Species. This quote was articulated by the conservative philosopher Herbert Spencer who was indirectly responsible for the "social Darwinism" movement.

Crapitalists picked up on this idea to enslave the working class by justifying their actions.

Hitler was not a scientist but a polemicist and propagandist as was Stalin.

Creationism is an attempt to preclude science with theology and plays into the role
of subjugation echoing crapitalist so-called "values". Theology is being used to manipulate economic behavior by deliberately distorting what Darwin actually said.
