This is how Hitler used social Darwinism. He showed videos of animals killing the weaker to promote this idea. He viewed Jews as a weaker species, so he killed them. He also view old or crippled people as weak and thus, useless to society, so he killed them. Hitler believed that Germans were the superior race. To Hitler there was no point to keeping 'weaklings' alive because they were a burden to society and they 'spoiled' the human species.
Note: The name 'Social Darwinism' is misleading, Darwin had nothing to do with Social Darwinism, he taught that animals with the right characteristics survived, those without died, NOT animals killing each other for survival (survival of the fittest).

What were Adolf Hitler's ties to social Darwinism?
A central theme of hitlers thinking was the idea of struggle.. in the 19th century the naturalist Charles Darwin had explained how in the world of nature, some species with favorable variations survived better than others when the environment changed.
