Charles darwin's theories on evolution had a major impact on victorian ideas about the world and humanity’s place in it. his theory of natural selection suggested that species that could survive intense competition and adapt to their environment were genetically superior and were the ones to survive. many people in the victorian era took darwin’s theory one step further to make assumptions about the social classes. they falsely believed that the upper class was genetically superior to the working class. how does wells critique the flawed principles of social darwinism in the time machine?
