In the early 1900s, Social Darwinism helped fuel the first genocide of the twentieth century when Germany tried to eradicate the Herero people in southern Africa. Learn about this horrific chapter in modern history and the abuse of Darwin's theory to justify colonialism and extermination.This short video is excerpted from the award-winning documentary, “The Biology of the Second Reich.” It starts by exploring the rise of Darwinism in Germany and then shows how this ideology impacted German colonialism in southwest Africa, leading to genocide.

Darwin: The Dawn of Man-
“As some future period, not very distant as measured by centuries, the civilized races of man will almost certainly exterminate and replace the savage races throughout the world. The break between man and his nearest allies will then be wider, than Caucasian, and some ape as low as the baboon, instead of as now between the negro (Africans) or Australian (Aborigines) and the gorilla.”
Darwin is saying the people in Africa and in Australian Aborigines are closer to the apes than the Caucasians.

In his book “Descent of Man,” Darwin describes Afrikans as savages.
Thus, it becomes clear that everyone that is not of white European ancestry is a savage. To Darwin the word ‘savage’, is stainful. Darwin constantly elevates the white European race above the savages. Darwin explains in his books, “the highest races and the lowest savages differ in moral disposition and intellect.”

These sickos even believe that by murdering hundreds of millions of people through invasions and usurpation of other people's property and land and false imprisonment and forced labor helped to advance civilization, and they also believe that the descendants of the victims should be appreciative because they too benefit from the so-called advancements in modern society. Man, I'm telling you, these sickos try to convince people that their victimization is either ordained by god or for the betterment of humanity. That's a mental illness that can't be cured.

Darwin was one sadistic psychopath. These terrornators worship the most blood thirsty people whether those who campaign for bloodshed and dominance over others or those who carry out the act of terror and destruction, and they're praised universally as the world's greatest intellectuals or greatest warriors. Straight sickos!
