This is kind of off topic, but oh well.

>Taken to its logical conclusion, this type of false "Social Darwinism" provided the Nazis with a "justification" for bigotry, forced eugenics, slavery, and "ethnic cleansing" (i.e., plain old genocide).

One of the most frightening new ideologies that I've heard of is "utilitarianism", a belief that justifies forms of genocide based on a crude scale of what will cause the most pleasure or pain. Utilitarianism says that it's okay to kill all mentally handicapped people just because they will probably cause others more pain than pleasure. Despite the fact that that statement is just not true, is that really a reason to commit genocide? The article I linked to below describes this belief as "the abortion-rights movement's worst nighmare". It sounds more like humanity's worst nightmare to me.
