Flashback - Trans MSNBC Guest: We Need to Stop Anti-Semitism in Order to Protect Transgenders Because Jews Invented Transgenderism

‘And there were LGBTQ people in concentration camps stamped with Pink triangles’

EXCERPT:

COX: “So in Arkansas, as well as this new law in Oklahoma, if you refer someone for gender affirming care, that can become a felony now -- just to refer someone. So they don't want trans people to exist. That is really what this whole project is about. And you can't make us not exist. That just doesn't work. And I also want to -- and this feels hyperbolic, but I thought a lot about it. And there's been a rise in anti-Semitism all over the country right now. And it's disgusting and it's horrible. People should know that one of the first things that the Nazis did, I think it was in 1933, was they burned Magnus Hirschfeld's gender sexuality. Magnus Hirschfeld was studying trans people, LGBTQ people. Lili Elbe, the Danish girl, the film the Danish girl was about, she had her first gender affirming procedure at Magnus Hirschfeld's clinic. The Nazis burned it down, all of this research. And there were LGBTQ people in concentration camps stamped with pink triangles. So in this moment of a rise of anti-Semitism, we see this rise, this documented rise in anti-trans legislation and rhetoric. These are not a coincidence. So we, as we fight anti-Semitism, as we fight for reproductive rights, we have to fight for trans rights as well.”
