I really don't know how to keep saying this so cis people understand.
The Nazis in 1933 came for trans people. They burned our libraries to the ground. They raided and bombed our hospitals. They declared our existence illegal. And then they put us in concentration camps and gassed us.
The Nazis in 2025 came for trans people. They're burning our books. They're raiding and bombing our hospitals. They're declaring our existence illegal. And they're building concentration camps.
There's no fucking nuance here. There's no metaphor to be found. There's no allegory. There's no need to draw "similarities" between the Nazis then and the Nazis now, because it's the same people doing the same shit for the same reasons. It's not "similar". It's the same fucking thing.
And if you can't see that, if you've had blinders on for the last 92+ years, I just don't know how to fucking help you with that. If you think the Nazi attacks on trans people are somehow "recent", blame a Nazi, because Nazis are the reason you think that.

When Hitler started ranting about the Jews from streetcorners in the 1920s, he was part
of a long history of European anti-Semitism.
But where in the world did this massive anti-trans campaign come from? | feel like it was invented out of whole cloth in the last five years.
@ Alejandra Caraballo @esqueer.net 22h
| need y'all to sit with this headline and understand what is being done to our community. They're trying to criminalize our very existence.
This is a campaign of eradication.

Texas bill would make identifying as transgender a felony punishable by jail
The bill, while unlikely to pass, highlights the increasing
extremism of legislation targeting trans people, especially in Texas, in recent years.

Raids and book burnings
Nazi Party members at the Opernplatz
book burning in Berlin On 6 May 1933, while Hirschfeld was in Ascona, Switzerland, the Deutsche Studentenschaft made an organised attack on the Institute of Sex Research, A brass band accompanied them as they arrived in the morning. After breaking into the building, the students destroyed much of what was inside, and looted tens of thousands of items — including works by authors who had been blacklisted in Nazi Germany. Following this, the leader of the students gave a speech before the institute, and the students sang Horst-Wessel-Lied Members of the Sturmabteilung (SA) appeared later in the day to continue looting the institute.
Four days later, the institute's remaining library and archives were publicly hauled out and burned in the streets of the Opernplatz by members of SA alongside the students. A bronze bust of Hirschfeld, taken from the institute, was placed on top of the bonfire. One estimate says that between 12,000 to 20,000 books and journals, and even larger number of images and sex subjects, were destroyed. Another estimate says that about 25,000 books were destroyed.

That the victors write the history, in this case, is misleading. We have to go back to the rise of fascism in Italy and Germany, to understand what has been happening in this century.
And, yes, they attack the most marginalised first. The Trans, and First Nations....in the modern Nazi Movement.
