Perspective On Spencer's Social Darwinism
I agree partly, in all species if we examine there is mutual aid. Ants make colonies, when lion hunts he shares because he knows if his herd starves to death then hunting alone would not be good for his survival. All animals can be examined doing mutual aid in their own community as factor of evolution. I agree complete equality is unnatural and Marx in his works “Critique on Gotha Programme” and “The German Ideology” harshly criticised such utopian socialist notions that fantasised about complete equality. Leninism-Stalinism as Lenin writes in his work “Impending Catastrophe and How to Combate it” the soviet revolution was based on State Capitalism Monopoly. According to main stream Marxists, it was anti socialist. He abolished worker unions, Killed people in putilov factory and always claimed to have instilled State Capitalism Monopoly in his own words. Because Socialism from very start has always been worker control over means of production. And according to lenin since Russia was agricultural economy and socialism being next step after industrial economy then to reach industrial economy he said “State Capitalism Monopoly is best material preparation for socialism.” (Impending Catastrophe and How to combat it). Beside Mutual Aid is a libertarian philosophy and to my knowledge had nothing to do in soviet union. For reference: Class Theory and History by Richard Wolf https://youtu.be/jxhT9EVj9Kk
