And you could look at people like Karl Ernst von Baer, a great German scientist.

Core axioms.

So like Darwin had a lot of, his account would explain empirically a lot of the elements of what we would see species do when they adapted to environments.

Right.

But it wouldn't explain, number one, the environments, which were assumed to be the sum total of the species that make up the environment.

So there was this assumption that wholes are the sum of parts, that there's nothing more than the sum of parts that make up a whole.

Got it.

Another core Trojan horse axiom I would say about Darwinism is that there was the assumption in Darwin's mind that everything was, the mutability factor was a random function on the very small.

So what would give one member of a species an advantage to have more sex or to eat more in a limited environment of diminishing returns was kind of a rolling of the dice function of something on the small, some mutation that was ultimately random in its essence.

And you weren't allowed to think otherwise.

You weren't allowed to have another hypothesis that maybe it's not rant.

Maybe there's something that is not a random function that gives that one item, that one character the big claw to kill his enemies or to have more sex or whatever, run a little bit faster or whatever.

Right.

The other thing I would say is there was an assumption of no directionality.

So Darwin said in his, if you want to be a Darwinian, you cannot allow the assumption that there's any directionality, there's no teleology, there's no purposefulness thus outside of the systems that you're trying to explain.

It's all based upon ultimately

some form of Hobbesian might makes right idea of the strongest will survive, the weakest will perish.

So kind of taking the laws of the British East India Company,

that they use practically to justify their own expansion and destruction of the darker skinned races.

And then to apply it now and make it scientifically a valid principle of nature as an assumption, not proven, but as an assumption, thus kind of whether by designer or not, then justifying the empire's own atrocious controlled genocides of India, which oversaw Malthusian destruction.
