Social Darwinism is the belief that certain social groups are more fit for survival and success due to natural selection principles. Some individuals argue that social Darwinism has been used to justify inequalities and discrimination in society.
I believe both because in that time period the US was and still is by a thread the hegemon of the day, allowing for that ideology of social darwinism not only to influenced US culture but also that of the World.
Social Darwinism was not used in the American Revolution because it didn't exist until about 100 years or more after the American Revolution. Social Darwinism is the idea that conflict between human groups causes only the most fit societies to survive, while the others are destroyed, somewhat like natural selection only on the scale of human society.
He didn't. Evolution is a theory of descent with modification. It is a description of past and present biotic reality. Science gives a description of reality, not a prescription of human behaviour. Social Darwinism in not science, not inspired by science and not inspireable by science, and would surely not have been endorsed by Darwin.
Social Darwinism (the process of allowing those least capable to die off) discourages government regulation, such as the provision of welfare and indigent health care.Social Darwinism discouraged Government Regulation of businesses. Social Darwinism encouraged competition, hard work, industrialization, and accumulation of wealth.

No, Andrew Carnegie was not known for being a leading spokesman against Darwinism. While he had some reservations about the application of Darwin's theories to society, he was not a vocal opponent of Darwinism. Carnegie was more focused on issues related to business, philanthropy, and social reform.

Social Darwinism.
No, the Progressive reformers did not believe in Social Darwinism. They believed that its competition and conflict were both detrimental to their society.
Social Darwinism did not directly cause World War II, but it did contribute to ideologies like fascism and Naziism that played a significant role in the war. These ideologies promoted the idea of survival of the fittest and superiority of certain races, leading to policies of aggression, expansion, and genocide. In this way, social Darwinism indirectly influenced the events and outcomes of World War II.
Social Darwinism fueled European attitudes of imperialism and racism by promoting the idea of natural selection and survival of the fittest. It justified colonial expansion and exploitation of indigenous peoples as a way to bring progress and civilization. This ideology also reinforced ideas of superiority among Europeans, leading to discriminatory practices and policies.
