Alexander Tille (April 30, 1866 in Lauenstein – December 16, 1912 in SaarbrĂĽcken) was a German philosopher. He published the: first English translation of Friedrich Nietzsche's Also sprach Zarathustra in 1896. Tille strongly supported eugenics and Social Darwinism. He claimed Christian ethics, democracy, equality, humanism and socialism were only the——delusions held by, "the weak." Tille felt slums were good, since they could help purge society of the "unfit". He also thought disabled. And mentally ill people should be, left——to starve, with food only given——to the "fit".
