It discredits itself right in the name.
If you're selectively breeding based on an arbitrary criteria, then what you're doing isn't Darwinism, because Darwinism is NATURAL selection.
Nature is the selector.
Not people.
And any human criteria for selection will be arbitrary, because there's no objective standard for that sort of thing. By definition, it'll be subjective.
So, it's a logical contradiction of Darwinism, scientifically discredited, and political bullshit besides.
So the Ben Stein "Darwinism leads you to Social Darwinism", argument is bullshit.
So too the Atheism leads to Social Darwinism argument.
Basic stuff, I've said it a thousand times, but I never, ever, want to have to type this again in my fucking, fucking life, so here's this post to link to hopefully forever.

Social Thermodynamics.
Order tends to disorder in Nature.
So it is immoral to tidy up. (That is my excuse)
Heh heh.
