After all the drugs and alcohol he did in high school and college his friends were amazed that he was still a very intelligent, articulate person but he explained that this was a result of cerebral darwinism and that the brain cells that had survived the various assaults of drugs and alcohol and various head injuries incurred in drunk and drugged out stupors, were the fittest brain cells and were actually super brain cells. Those that didn't make it were eliminated by the process of neurological natural selection.

Anarcho-Darwinism 

A political philosophy where everyone does whatever they want. There are laws. But, whoever wants to do evil things will naturally get beat up by the rest of society. Rapists obviously will get killed by other males given a lawless society. Little by little evil people and evil actions will get conditioned out of the human race, thus leaving only good people.
Anarcho-Darwinism is better than being a Democrat, Republican, Anarcho-Communist, and Anarcho-Capitalist.

Social Darwinism 

The concept of 'survival of the fittest' as applied to human societies.

In essence it is the belief that it is harmful to society to help those who are physically, intellectually, or economically disadvantaged. The belief that those members of society should be allowed to die off in order to strengthen the gene pool.
The Nazis believed that those races that they determined to be inferior should be systematically eradicated in order to prevent the dilution and weakening of the Aryan race, which they deemed superior. This may be the largest application of the concept of 'social Darwinism.'
