Crazy how they are pro-eugenics and anti-abortion.

[Sarah-recg]

One thing I learned about racism, eugenics, sexism, etc is that it NEVER goes away. It just mutates and we as a society have to continue to fight it like a recurring cold.

There were advertisements in the 1940s and 50s calling for lobotomies for introverts. It promised that a lobotomy would make an introvert into the life of the party. We have a very very narrow concept of what an acceptable person is.

Conservatives: "Birth control BAD!"
Also Conservatives: _Does a sterilization_

[gebuh]

Happened to my mother - her doctor tried to talk her into sterilization, he also told her “not to tell her husband because black men don’t like that”
This was in the 60s

[SamBarge]

I'm sure it's no surprise, but Canada also pursued an active eugenics program and continues to push sterilization on indigenous women into the 21st century.

[franciscorosa]

So happy you included the sterilization of Puerto Rican woman seeing as I've meet too many people who don't even believe we're part of the US and try to erase our long history in US politics and wars

[AshikawaBetas]

As a disabled person this is greatly disturbing to me

[scifirealism]

Conservatives and capitalists need to stop attaching value to people based on whether or not they work.

The idea that if you can't work you have no value is disgusting.

[trinodot]

Its really telling how much inspiration the Nazis took from American values.

[Jakepearl]

“Why do you hate your country so much?”

Meanwhile, in America’s past…

[randalt]

The irony is that 90% of MAGA would fail Goddard's intelligence test...

[apersonig]

The rate at which America is moving towards fascism is actually scary

[SeñorTostón]

I’m Puerto Rican. The fact that over 1/3 of our women were sterilized/experimented on with birth control pills without their consent is deathly shocking to me, and it’s so sad how they don’t even teach this at school here in the island. Isn’t that weird, right? 🧐

[jouhsagreen]

You got to love it when a group of immigrants, close the door on other immigrants because they feel like their better then them. They always forget about all that stuff their pass.

[scloftin]

Sitting here staring at my state and realizing that in the Southwestern US, involuntary sterilization was used as a weapon against the First Nations population. It makes me weep and my heart hurt.

[SleepyMatt-zzz]

As an Autistic dude, I am always afraid of people like this coming into power. I, and many other disabled people, would cease to exist if Conservatives had it there way. They wouldn't stop with people with mental impairments, they'll go for anyone that doesn't isn't considered neurotypical.

[firbolg]

Americans often claim to be the best and greatest democracy in the world, but it’s hard to see how that holds up. As a Swiss citizen, I recognize that we have our own history of backward practices, like our last canton granting women the right to vote only in the 1980s. However, at least we don’t pretend to be the best and greatest.

[min_tea_]

Eugenics has never ended for disabled people.

[jacobsoto]

I think the fact that there isn't a lot of support for people with disabilities and a lack of worker rights, I think is very reminiscent of eugenics
