Holy crap...this guy wants to re-invent Darwin's theories but being "diverse and inclusive" to overcome Darwin's faulty thinking because he was, supposedly, a White Supremacist.

That's the thing. He complains about Darwin's data alot of which were as much observations including what was taking place in western society. And it's always easy to look at things in hindsight with more data and analysis and come up with a new theory.

The most succinct post to date and the answer is YES!

Always keep in mind that we Whites are barely 12 per cent of the global population, in fact we are an endangered species. I wonder if Darwin considered that possibility.

.this replying to the question “is this how planet of the apes got started?”

I disagree with the author of the article.

If Charles Darwin wrote an entire book about the evolutionary differences between the races and sexes, then that is worth looking into to gain an understanding about our own society.

Shocking a 19th century Englishman had bias & prejidces so sayeth this scholar, thats nice we should thank him on sharing this earth shattering revelation...

I guess this scholar missed the part where Darwin is the start of evolution as a concept not the end all and any true scholar would be investigating multiple sources ....

There is even a more important point to drive home about Darwin if we are going to teach "truth".

Darwin is now "roasting in hell". But not because he was a racist, sexist, white supremacist...

But because he came up with a theory of human origins that was not consistent with the classical interpretation of Genesis.

So we're gonna get a "woke" version of Darwin's theory ?

Well we're re-writing history to call every White man a supremacist so why not science too.....

Define racist and sexist. Are women and men the same? Are races the same?
