Is Social Darwinism a justifiable reason to colonize other areas of the world and exploit the people and resources of that region?

Social Darwinism provided an ideological justification for the social inequalities that capitalism had brought with it: these would result from the hereditary inferiority of the poor and the hereditary excellence of the richer classes, which are best enjoyed under a laissez-faire system. Applied to peoples and races, it became a justification for racism and imperialism.

As can be seen, social Darwinism is a retrograde political and philosophical stance, which considered different ethnic or national groups as different in terms of capacity or development possibilities. Therefore, since this position has been regarded as false, social Darwinism has no justification in our time.
