Hitler borrowed racism from thinkers like Charles Darwin and Herbert Spencer. Darwin was a natural scientist, who tried to explain the creation of plants and animals through the concept of evolution and natural selection. Herbert Spencer later added the idea of survival of the fittest. According to this idea, only those species survived on earth that could adapt themselves to changing climatic conditions. Darwin never advocated human intervention in what he thought was a purely natural process of selection. However, his ideas were used by racist thinkers and politicians to justify imperial rule over conquered people.
The Nazi argument was simple: the strongest race would survive and the weak ones would perish. The Aryan race was the finest. It had to retain its purity, become stronger and dominate the world

hope it helps

Hitler & # 39; s racism was borrowed by thinkers such as Charles Darwin (1809-1882) and Herbert Spencer (1820-1903). Darwin was a natural scientist who tried to explain the construction of plants and animals through the concepts of development and natural selection. In 1859, Darwin published 'On the Origin of Species by Mean of Natural Selection', in which he proposed the theory of development through the process of natural selection. But he never advocated human intervention which he thought was a completely natural process of selection. Racist politicians used their ideas to justify the imperial rule on the victorious people. Herbert Spencer was deeply impressed by Charles Darwin's 'On the Origin of Species' and gave his thoughts on 'living survival' in his book 'Theory of Biology'. They developed the concept of embracing the development of the physical world, biological organism, human mind and human culture and progressive development of society. According to their ideas, only those species survive on the Earth, which can adapt themselves to change the conditions of the climate. To adopt his views, the Nazi government suggested that the strongest race, i.e., the Nordic German Aryans will survive and weak people will be destroyed.

The Nazi government policy was openly influenced by both the science and education society, the Zytist, Darwinism. It can be evaluated by a test of existing documents, articles and artifacts produced by Germany's twentieth century Nazi movement and its many scientific supporters.
