So-called social Darwinism was the precursor to Nazism. It was the politics of the German trenches.

It is the sort of thing people who know very little about Darwin think is what Darwin was implying. It is the very politics of brutallism which inspired Hitler.

In fact, it's the description of social Darwinism from which I get my vocabulary of brutallism when describing the GOP. They are going there. In this politics, the poor aren't unlucky, they are lazy; minorities aren't vulnerable, they are like vermin. Next thing you know, there are concentration camps. Wait. There are.

That's the road the GOP is on.

What we know about Gilroy Garlic Festival shooting suspect Santino William Legan

GILROY — In the hours before the Gilroy Garlic Festival shooting, Santino William Legan posted a photo with the caption, “Ayyy garlic festival time come get wasted on overpriced ...,” using an expletive.

He also posted a photo of a Smokey Bear sign warning about fire danger with a caption instructing people to read the novel “Might Is Right” by Ragnar Redbeard. The book, published in 1890,

includes principles related to Social Darwinism and is described as including misogynistic and racist ideas. 

A law enforcement source identified the suspect as Santino William Legan, 19. The mass shooting Sunday killed three and injured 12. Police killed the gunman after the rampage. Police on Monday searched a house linked to Legan at the end of a quiet suburban cul de sac in Gilroy.

Officers emerged from the house carrying several paper bags.
