All things that happen are in line with the modern model of evolution. Evolution is not some path that things must follow. Evolution is a description of the observed path of beings on earth and the volume of evidence about those that came before us.
There is nothing that says that only some form of high fitness creatures must exist.
Darwinism is about how environmental pressures form a population. It's identical to how water shapes rocks over thousands of years. Ask yourself what pressures there are on the population. Then you will see where evolution is at work.
One pressure could be the vast increase in population of humans. Possible outcomes could be:
1) people work together and form rules that allow this to happen
2) people kill one another to reduce the population to where they don't interact
Both happen.
Evolution just says that pressures move things. It doesn't say anything about the nature of that movement. Environmental pressures could move creatures into a corner (i.e. the dinosaurs) at which point they can be wiped out by a change they have not been selected for (and couldn't have been).
Calling it "darwinism" also makes it sound like a cult compared to observation.
