Darwin...linked to Hitler?
And here comes Godwin's Law.
And look, a few of these fellows on this "documentary" are proponents of "intelligent" design. Nice. Let's take a bunch of crazy people misusing a theory to justify mass murder and try to discredit it because Hitler abused it. Nice try, kids.
So, along the same lines, let's talk about the grim legacy of flight. No airplanes, no 9/11. How's that? Forget about the fact that terrorists were using it wrong.
It might be better to look at more proximate causes to Hitler--like him being nuts...or him being abused..or that he was a hateful sonofabitch who had delusions of grandeur.
But maybe it's not all bad that Adolf misused Darwin's theory. After all, when he did commit suicide.
