Why did American geneticists not speak out more frequently and forcefully against eugenics in the 1920s and 30s?
1. The legacy of the influential Galton
2. They were absorbed in their own science
3. They viewed eugenicists as a "lunatic fringe of no long-term consequence"

A dozen or more transgender members of the U.S. Air Force who had sought early retirement to avoid being discharged for their gender identity have had those retirements canceled. Each has served between 15 and 18 years.

Disability is not a vacation.
It’s not like that time you took a week off sick from work.
It’s a 24/7 job. It’s unrelenting pain, fatigue and suffering.
It’s dealing with a medical system that ignores and gaslights you, a society that views you as expendable & people who resent you for existing

I think not enough people realize that people with disabilities weren't even seen as human until rather recently in history. Eugenics hurt our society in many ways.

I am disturbed by how quickly people throw the mentally ill under the bus when talking about people they don't like. Too often I hear talking points that comes straight out of the eugenics movement and y'all need to be careful.

First they overturned Roe.
Then came the trigger laws and abortion bans that force people to carry pregnancies they don’t want or can’t handle.
Then they came for Planned Parenthood.

So of course, ICE is raiding homeless shelters. They hit the Women’s’ Shelter across the street from our bldg, yesterday. Cruelty is the point.

Be clear about what’s happening: the U.S. govt maintains daily kidnapping quotas. During these initial months of Project 2025’s implementation Black and Brown people have been the focus. The govt is disappearing average people from their kids’ school pickup lines, hospitals, workplaces, graduations.

Literally ANY white person who witnesses another do/say anything racist, has the DUTY to immediately transform into a Karen-level aggressor—addressing said racism.

If you think this is all new for America, then you have been slacking on your history lessons. PBS can get you started. I recommend the history of eugenics, where it started and how Hitler became inspired. Or perhaps the Tulsa Massacre. That is just the tip of the iceberg. It has always been here.

It often bothers me how every time someone is treated poorly, the outcry is to sue. Just sue! Huh? How? With what money? Sometimes outrage is all that is available. The law isn't the same amount of kind to everyone. Never really has been.
