Republicans talking about Trans people like Nazis talking about Jews episode #853
More like "Republicans talking about Trans people like Nazis talking about Trans people"
The first of the famous nazi book burnings were targeted at an institute studying and trying to understand trans people.

I'm so glad you replied to that comment with this. I immediately thought the same thing when I read the original comment. Thank you for spreading this important information that too little people know!
Thank you. I think a lot of people think only of the Jewish genocide when they talk about Nazi crimes. While they definitely were hit the hardest and were at the forefront of Nazi hate Germany systematically persecuted communists, LGBTQ and the Sinti and Roma communities as well.
I definitely agree and was thinking the same. Disabled and some autistic people, too, of course among others. I wish people knew more about what went on, who was targeted, how it happened, and what we all have to do to make sure it doesn't happen again. Thank you again for spreading the truth. I really do appreciate it.

Fascists are inherently derivative. That's why they inevitably burn themselves out, they were all out of ideas to begin with.
This makes a lot of sense. But when I look at terrorist Putin, or Winnie the Poo whatever the fuck, seems like people don’t really care.

Yeah I'm borrowing that phrase if you don't mind chef's kiss
...God this makes me so mad. This place was based as hell and not only did the Nazis ruin it, West Germany looked at what happened afterwards and went "meh, 'salright, I guess."
