* Hitler believed in evolution
* Hitler believed in evolution
* Hitler was evil
* Hitler was evil

* Therefore, evolution is wrong

Continuing along the same line:
* Darwin, like many people in the 19th Century, was a racist

* Therefore, evolution is wrong
This is flawed because evolution can be true or false regardless of the personal opinions of its inventor, Charles Darwin.
