The advocates of social Darwinism and/or eugenics have long looked for "intellectual" masks for their greed and bigotry.
None of us are fooled. None of us are likely to be fooled.
I can't stop laughing at JollyRoger's comment referring to Objectivists as "advocates of eugenics", when the eugenics movement (within the United States) grew almost entirely out of the progressive movement.
Jason: Your "within the United States" caveat is pretty important. You also left out that there hasn't been significant progressive support for eugenics since the early 20th century
The ideology of eugenics still has proponents on the right, as does the narcissistic ideology that often is given the misnomer, "social Darwinism" which has nothing to do with the theories or findings of Darwin.
