Is thinking of an individual reproducing as "winning" at evolution simplistic?

Evolution doesn’t care what’s best for you as an individual or even for your species. As several Dopers pointed out in a recent GD thread on Social Darwinism:

@Der_Trihs

evolution is a description of how things work, not how they should work

@Alessan

Darwinism is descriptive, not prescriptive.
