It would be Darwinian if the predatory practices hurt “less fit” people the most. And that would be evil in itself, and also detrimental to society. However, they will just hurt poor people, which is most people, as companies will just go “what are you going to do, sue us?”
The problem is that this will just hurt 99.99% of people. Wealth is not a good selector because it has practically no gradient. Pretty much nobody but a very select few have enough wealth to combat this.
I’m saying that it’s like you went into a zoo and started randomly shooting the animals there and called it a selection pressure. Nothing will adapt to survive bullet wounds, they will just die.
I guess I’m just saying that even if someone is into social Darwinism and eugenics and stuff like that - which pretty much makes one a Nazi - even then, this is stupid.

That’s what I meant, but maybe I wasn’t specific enough. In modern society, wealth is what makes you more fit for survival.

Preaching to the choir, my friend. I’m not supportive of this in any way.
