Hitler used the theory of natural selection as justification for genocide. He seen the Jews and the blacks and the Poles as genetically inferior to his Aryan race and the sooner they were eliminated the better it would be for the advancement of mankind.
If you look at the theory objectively without a PC filter it is a natural hypothesis to make: If humans are evolving and within the human race we have genetic pools that have for the better part been isolated for thousands of years there will be winners and losers in the race for the survival of the fittest. If science is able to identify a definite winner why not pave the way for his/her eventual advancement. Also why not remove the losers from the equation. They use up valuable resources which holds the species back.
I understand that today most evolutionists categorically reject this line of thinking but that doesn't mean the hypothesis has been dis-proven. It simply is a example of the influence political correctness has on science. Some questions are not allowed to be asked.
Remember the book that Darwin wrote which popularized the evolutionary theory was called The Origin of Species and Race. It is that book which Hitler read and embraced in his youth.
