    Ok but what does this have to do with darwin? The illustration is from a book written by John Clark Ridpath. Is this an attempt to brand darwin as a racist? Sure he might be a cousin fucker and probably held some views that might be seen as outlandish today but from what I know he was pretty much against slavery and argued for humans to have a common ancestor and not whatever this illustration is supposed to be.

    ok so from some more reading. yes he probably was a racist, but my other points still stand and the illustration isnt from him

    Your title is extremely misleading. You’ve effectively directly attributed the picture to darwin. The “Charles Darwin’s Racial Tier List” is literally your own creation, the image itself has nothing to do with him, and no source I’ve found on the several results i found on tineye for this image mentions darwin. The what the fuck here is not that “some dude supposedly being inspired by darwin drew some racist bullshit in 1871” its darwin being associate with this.

    seriously, WTF did you get darwin from?

      Sorry it didn’t fit your taste! This is not a serious debate forum, in here we laugh at dumb shit.
