The first books the Nazis burned were scientific research notes about trans people
Impressive that it is actually true, I thought it is an exaggeration. From Wikipedia:
On 30 January 1933, Adolf Hitler, the leader of the Nazi Party, came to power
On 6 May 1933, a group of students … the students proceeded to shout “Brenne Hirschfeld!” (“Burn Hirschfeld!”) while ransacking and vandalizing the Institute, tearing pictures from the walls, pouring inkwells onto carpets, and destroying exhibitions while the band played outside.
Yeah, when they teach about book burnings they never mention that fact. It also serves as a reminder that trans people are not just a modern phenomenon. The Nazis’ reasons for targeting trans people then are the same as right-wingers today, they look for a small, marginalized group and seize on existing prejudice to sow division and divide and conquer. The Nazis claimed trans people were a Jewish plot to weaken and destroy the Ayran race, and you can still see echos of that in some right-wing rhetoric today.
You came into a discussion about trans topics being censored and are angry that trans people are being discusses? Do you think this thread is the “fucking center of the universe”?
You do not have any self control. You are putting yourself in these positions. This is the Internet. You could just find something else, but I have the feeling your the one with a prosecution complex.
It’s objectively true that the German nazi party first went after gender studies they didn’t like. It wasn’t called transgender at the time, but that’s what we call it today.
I’m a straight white dude and it takes very little thinking to see that trans people are being targeted as “the other” again. So, not kindly, go fuck yourself.

They then executed everyone with a brain. Drs, teachers, engineers, scientists, researchers, etc

There’s this thing called empathy. Maybe you should look into it.
