Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Weinstein says Spencer advocated the idea that “those who survive the struggle are by definition not only the fittest but also morally the best. So it’s defining ‘good’ as ‘survival. ‘ Whatever survives is by definition good.”
Detailed explanation-2: -Survival of the fittest means the strongest will survive and the weak will die. The ‘fittest’ will succeed over the weaker and they’re the fittest to do so. This would mean the individual who is the strongest and has the longest spear rules over everyone in a harsh world without social order, class, and social customs.
