Could social darwinism, if applied to somehow target the unintelligent in society, even work? Would the effects of what is essentially eugenics even have effects exceeded marginality? There was a discussion on another forum I visit about the viability of "social darwinism", although I don't believe it's really connected to Darwin's theory. On one hand, could the collective intelligence of society be raised by eliminating the unintelligent? Or also, would it even be beneficial to society to wage eugenics against the unintelligent? I'm not a supporter of what's commonly called Social Darwinism, just curious if any of its points are valid? Thanks, and sorry for being incoherent.
