Everything they said boiled down to saying because trans people didint explicitly get killed because they were trans due to "possibly" being other things like gay or jewish is dunce logic.
But we also know that a German court that looked at the historical record concluded that there isn’t enough evidence to support the claim that trans people were targeted when disambiguated from homosexuality, Judaism or another group that were unequivocally targeted.

Thread on the persistent claims about trans people and the Nazis 👇
1./ Trans Healthcare and the Nazis.
The LGBTQ+ lobby likes to claim trans people were a key target of the Nazis. They weren't. In fact, trans healthcare was pioneered by a champion of eugenics, and a surgeon who designed experiments at Dachau. His victims there were not trans.

How about we read authoritative sources like the Holocaust Memorial Day Trust and Smithsonian Magazine instead of random twitter threads.

The thread has sources. Please show your evidence that trans-identifying people were persecuted, as distinct from gay people, who were indeed victims of heinous treatment by the Nazis.

In January after a pile on against

, I explained the finding of a German court that there wasn’t sufficient evidence to show that trans people were targeted in the Holocaust. This led to a formal complaint to my employer that I was a holocaust denier.

Exactly. The German courts found that transgender identifying ppl as a group weren't targetted by the nazis.
Claiming otherwise is the equivalent of insisting pescatarians were targetted, because some of the Jewish, gay, disabled, traveller etc., ppl targetted were pescatarian.
