Many industrialists and wealthy individuals in the late 19th and early 20th centuries supported Social Darwinism as it justified their wealth and power by framing it as a result of natural selection and survival of the fittest. Some prominent figures who endorsed Social Darwinism include Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, and Herbert Spencer.
Social Darwinism emerged in the late 19th century, gaining popularity in the 1870s and 1880s. It was influenced by Charles Darwin's theory of natural selection and was used to justify various social, political, and economic ideologies.
The concept of Social Darwinism favors and is often favored by the aristocracy, or the rich and elite. Social Darwinism states that affluent people are well off is because they are better or more evolved and smarter than the economically disadvantaged population.

Herbert Spencer.
The concept of Social Darwinism favors and is often favored by the aristocracy, or the rich and elite. Social Darwinism states that affluent people are well off is because they are better or more evolved and smarter than the economically disadvantaged population.
A position supported by social Darwinism is the idea that competition and natural selection should be allowed to determine success and social hierarchy in society. This theory suggests that those who are the fittest and most successful will rise to the top, while those who are weaker will be left behind.
The Peninsular was the most powerful social class in New Spain.
Social Darwinism was the belief that life and society are governed by a "survival of the fittest" mentality, where only the strongest and most capable individuals or groups succeed. Individualism, on the other hand, emphasizes the rights and autonomy of the individual over the collective good. While social Darwinism justifies inequality and competition as natural and beneficial, individualism values personal freedom and self-reliance.
The inherent flaw in Social Darwinism was its application of biological evolutionary principles to human societies, promoting the idea that only the strongest and most capable individuals or groups should survive and prosper. This theory justified social inequality, oppression, and discrimination, neglecting important human values such as compassion, cooperation, and social responsibility.
