I also don’t think that Charles Darwin should be held responsible for so-called Social Darwinism which Nazis and Communists espoused to justify mass murder. He didn’t invent that.

I think you need to examine my FR page before continuing in this vein.

I didn’t say the Nazis didn’t draw inspiration from the eugenics movement and Darwinian theory - clearly they did. I’m just pointing out that Charles Darwin shouldn’t be personally blamed for the misuse of his theories after his death.
