Hitler and his henchmen victimized an entire continent and exterminated millions in his quest for a co-called "Master Race."
But the concept of a white, blond-haired, blue-eyed master Nordic race didn't originate with Hitler. The idea was created in the United States, and cultivated in California, decades before Hitler came to power. California eugenicists played an important, although little known, role in the American eugenics movement's campaign for ethnic cleansing.

The full title of Darwin's most important work?
The Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection: The Preservation of Favored Races in the Struggle for Life
What many fail to comprehend is that 0bamacare is ultimately another version of progressive eugenics.
Yes but the article is factually incorrect into the origination of the pure race and that indeed the current blue-eyed blond haired theme originated in Europe well before any such notion in the U.S. Google for refs, they’re all over the place.
fixed that headline for you
That certainly would be a vast jump of analogical reasoning, from strains of finches to races of people, and not even Charles was willing to embrace all of what we call animal Darwinism today (e.g. he would admit the attribution of such a “perfected” thing as the eye to divine design). It seems that simplified stories are what we recount today, not the messy details.
It should be noted that “Races” in Darwin’s title referred to what we would today more commonly refer to as “subspecies” or “breeds.” It did not specifically refer to human races.
The term is still used in that way in botany and perhaps in other branches of biology.
The connotations we assign to the concept “race” were absent in his day. It had a much broader use. For instance, Kipling, Rhodes and other often referred to “the Anglo-Saxon race.”
Given the general POV of the time, Darwin’s book is surprisingly free of white racism and triumphalism.
“(e.g. he would admit the attribution of such a “perfected” thing as the eye to divine design). “
Darwin says the human eye evolved ... like everything else we know. This was in his book “Origin of Species”.
It is, however, entirely reasonable to point out that Darwin professed himself stumped as to how life originated, as opposed to how it evolved into so many different forms.
IOW, those who claim Darwinism can be used to address the origin of life, much less the origin of the universe, are just ignorant of his thought.
Not in its completeness. That is a misrepresentation.
“It is, however, entirely reasonable to point out that Darwin professed himself stumped as to how life originated, as opposed to how it evolved into so many different forms.”
Darwin was also stumped about evolution. He reported what he saw but said he had no clue how it happened.
Darwin’s views on race are more than clear in his follow-up book “The Ascent of Man.” His disciples include Francis Galton and Margaret Sanger. In “Ascent” he compares the human race to a barnyard where defective animals are destroyed for the good of “the race” and predicts a future where the more advanced races (such as the Anglo-Saxons) would wage war on the inferior ones,
Eugenics is no longer horrifying. Again.
I came across this information in the Rockefeller online archives. There were memos, payments, and letters of instructions to Margaret Sanger, the Founder of Planned Parenthood. Out of curiosity, I looked at some of David Rockefellers speeches, and connections, and I have no doubt he is behind Soros and Obama. I collected great info., but don’t have it with me now.
There is also the accusations that Rockefeller owns the pharmaceutical industry through shell companies. Those companies include the mandated vaccines, and many harmful drugs that are approved by the FDA despite admissions of fraudulent misrepresentations and known dangers.

See Skinner v. Oklahoma and book ‘In Reckless Hands’, by Victoria Nourse. Scary stuff.
He never saw any evolution. He saw things that he thought could be explained by a theory of evolution.
I’d be more libertarian about it frankly — that doctors would be permitted to prescribe any medicine whether or not it gets the FDA nod. As long as there is some kind of accountability structure in place concerning willful malpractice.
But this can't be correct. Scientists NEVER fake or twist data to fit an agenda.
Exactly. It’s no coincidence that Progressive Wilson was a stone cold bigot.
The Neanderthals were the smartest...but they were randy as stoats and bred themselves out of existence.
