I know it’s not 1:1, but it’s just a thought I had in the shower.

    Probably rebuilding after a setback. Germany had the clinic for medical research into trans people at the time. The earliest Nazi book burnings were against them. It took 60 years to get back a lot of what had been built.

    Nor did other sexual minorities get any favors after the war.

    Religions are artificial. Trans people aren’t.

    Societies that embrace science and progress will always be cool places to live (on average)

      The nazis’ definition of Jewish people had hardly anything to do with religion. They persecuted them based on lineage and pseudoscientific horseshit that was supposed to identify Jewish “genes”…

      Yea, religion is made up and should be ignored. Just like currency, boarders, sovereignty, human rights, the concept of law, literature, art, and language itself. Brilliant.

    I doubt, it’s going to work the same, because trans folks can pretend to be the gender they were assigned at birth for a long time. They won’t be happy and they might want to leave the country either way, but if they do so, they’re less likely to bring along their whole family, since those won’t be persecuted.

      alternatively, we hunt every single incel down Bin Laden style and shoot them with a dart containing the perfect mix of pregnancy hormones that turns her into a wet nurse milk vending machine

      The holocaust absolutely facilitated the creation of Israel. The Balfour declaration and Theodor Herzl are necessary, but not sufficient. In the aftermath of WWII and the Shoah, there was a need for mass Jewish migration. Meanwhile, “good” countries like the US and UK had strict immigration policies explicitly to exclude Jews. A ship full of Jews fleeing the Nazis in '39 were rejected by the US, Canada, and the UK. Eventually they were returned to Germany. (the embarrassment of this episode is why countries are supposed to give shelter to anyone fleeing persecution until the matter is adjudicated) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MS_St._Louis

      And that’s the part of history that’s left out. Western Europe and N America were happy to resettle the Jews, anywhere else. Support of Israel by the West cannot be understood without acknowledging the massive amount of antisemitism in basically all of Western Civilization.

        There was already hundred thousands of jews migrating to palestine to force a state before the holocust. Read about the Aliyahs. The zionists militaries also was created before the holocust. I don’t think that if the holocust didn’t happen that the colonization project would have failed

        Hitler’s genocide is not the reason why Israel was created. In the early 1900’s zionists already was working on forcing a state on the local people

        There is zero similarity between the zionists and the presecuted trans people

            I believe the point they’re trying to make is that where the will to forge Israel came from the genocide of WWII, the idea for Israel and the Zionists pre-date WWII.

            In 1917 belfour assured zionists that they will have their state. A state that couldn’t been build without ethenic cleansing. It makes zero sense to compared israel which are presecuting palestinians to trans people who are getting persecuted.
