The only reason I keep Facebook is for unhinged stuff like this

Is there a Near-Darwin Award?
Y’all always love eugenics jokes. And like always, before you get pissed about me telling you that this is a eugenics joke, yes, equating evolution with intelligence is reliant on eugenicist notions of natural human ability and evolution as a process that picks out the “bad” or “weak” elements of a species.
Darwinism is a concept that only refers to how traits are passed on through physical reproduction, not what normative values those traits have in terms of “good” or “bad.” What you’re referring to is more akin to social-Darwinism, which was a pseudoscientific concept that emerged in the late-nineteenth century as a catch-all rationalization of social inequities along the lines of arbitrary social values like industriousness, naturalized class, racism, ableism, etc.
Unsurprisingly, it was popular among Nazis. I hope you understand the irony in applying it here to make fun of a person who subscribes to an anti-science concept promoted by fascists.
The down votes you’re receiving are social Darwinism in action lmao. An idiot killing thselves through their own choices is not eugenics. But it is something we can all appreciate, and before you say it, NO I do not think we should be making the world safer for idiots. If you’re too stupid to survive the day to day and do shit like the OP then good riddance.
Wow, someone who eats bricks really would talk like that. Well done.
Oh also,
“The law is the survival of the fittest… The law is not the survival of the ‘better’ or the ‘stronger,’ if we give to those words any thing like their ordinary meanings. It is the survival of those which are constitutionally fittest to thrive under the conditions in which they are placed; and very often that which, humanly speaking, is inferiority, causes the survival.”
Seems like you’d agree with this, right?
Sir, this is a Wendy’s.
Ma’am, she was talking 'bout burgers.

How about you and your strawman find a room, since you see really into it.
Go look up Herbert Spencer bud.
Edit: just so this is clear, if you ever thought “survival of the fittest” is a natural selection term coined by Darwin, guess where your understanding comes from. You ivermectin chugging chud.
