'''Social Darwinism''', shortened to '''Darwinism''', is an ideology inhabiting a far-right area outside of the political compass that advocates for a society where all murder, theft, and competition is legal, with the intention that only the strongest individuals will survive. "True" Social Darwinism has never been implemented in the real world and is largely based on fiction like the Purge films. Most ideologies that we might associate with Social Darwinism were actually influenced by [[File:Eugen.png]] [[Eugenicism]].
==History and Variants==
 
==Beliefs==
Social Darwinism believes that human groups and races are subject to the same natural selection laws as plants and animals. It also posited that the weak diminished while the strong gained power and cultural influence, summarizing human society as a "survival of the fittest" struggle. Proponents like Spencer, Walter Bagehot, and William Graham Sumner believed natural selection led to the survival of the best competitors, improving populations over time. This theory justified laissez-faire capitalism and political conservatism, arguing that social stratification was natural and that aiding the poor interfered with biological processes. Social Darwinism also rationalized imperialist, colonialist, and racist policies by asserting the superiority of Anglo-Saxon or Aryan cultures.
 
==Variants==
===[[File:SpencerDar.png]] '''Spencerism'''===
Spencerism refers to the philosophy and sociology of Herbert Spencer. Spencer was a 19th-century English author and philosopher born in Derby, England who wrote various texts about "Universal evolution" which was a theory believing that everything from the universe to societies to flowers starts out as homogeneous and then becomes heterogeneous before then transforming back into a homogeneous substance. The ideology however is based on Spencer's view of natural selection and survival of the fittest as well as sharing common ground with [[File:Awaj.png]] [[Anarchism|anarchism]] through ideas of full freedom for the individual and not being forced into actions one is unwilling to do. The ideology is also [[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism|capitalistic]] and thinks that those who are rich and successful are so because they developed skills through natural selection that let them get and keep those positions on the social hierarchy.

*[[File:Odal.png]] [[Odalism]] - Waiting for you after the end of civilization.
*[[File:Illeg.png]] [[Illegalism]] - Like to commit violence like me, but only out of petty self-interest, sometimes even for no reason at all. Unlike I merely use violence to actually achieve a visionary ideal.
*[[File:Prim.png]] [[Primalism]] - The animal kingdom is an example of natural selection in its purest form, not affected by the "morality" invented by people. But still thanks to technological progress, humanity is the most powerful species on the planet.
*[[File:Authcap.png]] [[Authoritarian Capitalism]] & [[File:Nazcap-Hat.png]] [[National Capitalism]] - You have great ideas, but are far too moderate.
*[[File:Cap.png]] [[Capitalism]] & [[File:Fiscon.png]] [[Fiscal Conservatism]] - Market hierarchies are based but you are even more moderate for my tastes.
*[[File:Freemason Esosoc.png]] [[Esoteric Socialism|Freemasonry]] & [[File:Illum.png]] [[Illuminatism]] - "Didja think every battle in history was all part of some big ol' conspiracy? Bullshit! War is just part'a who we are. Why fight it?"
