Fantastic point! Yes, I believe that is exactly what is happening with Darwinian racism: one group exploiting and dominating others is hidden with a scientificish veneer. Very much a Plato's 'nobel lie' thing going on, similar to the mythology justifying the Vedic caste system. Darwinian racism is just a modern caste myth to justify exploitation.
It reminds me of a kid when I was younger who would steal from us and then consider himself smart for taking advantage of other people foolish enough to trust him. Arguably the same has happened with the Caucasian race in recent history: they took advantage of a bunch of less technically advanced people groups, and then justified it with the Darwinian racial myth, since after all they were smart enough to justify their exploitation with such a sophisticated myth, thus proving the myth correct.
