The Curious Case of the Socialite Who Sterilized Her Daughter

Over a century of eugenics, only it has been rebranded;

There was something else about this case that raised eyebrows: the unconventional use of sterilization. Ann appeared to have been sterilized because of environmental rather than genetic defects; she was the product of bad parenting, rather than bad genes. Furthermore, the involuntary procedure occurred in a private practice, rather than in an institutional setting.

Ann was also wealthy, whereas the usual targets of sterilization (epileptic, intellectually disabled, and unemployed persons) were poor. If the court ruled in favor of Ann’s mother, these details could reinvigorate and redefine a flailing movement that embraced the practice of sterilization: eugenics.

The term “eugenics,” which translates to “well-born” from Greek, originated with English intellectual Sir Francis Galton. In his 1869 book Hereditary Genius, Galton drew on Gregor Mendel’s insights on the reproductive patterns of peas to advocate a selective breeding program among humans. Galton wanted to ensure that the characteristics he associated with the upper classes, such as superior intelligence, were passed down.

Galton’s theories significantly shaped policies in the United States, as Edwin Black’s volume, War Against the Weak: Eugenics and America’s Campaign to Create a Master Race, demonstrates. According to Black, the Englishman’s ideas inspired Charles Davenport, a prominent American biologist, to establish the Eugenics Record Office (ERO) at Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in New York in 1910.

Gender reassignment is sterilization.

No one, has the right to determine who lives or dies.

US have a Forgotten history of forced sterilization, one more dark stage of what we as a nation can do to each other in the name of some kind of agenda tagged for the good of the nation.

Now mutilation in the name of sex change is the new way to bring back the agenda once again, mostly targeting males for some reason it was always targeting women, but now is males.

the usual targets of sterilization (epileptic, intellectually disabled, and unemployed persons) were poor

Birth rate in the UA would drop by 3/4 if these practices were revived today. Oh, wait.....
