I'm reminded of that line in Man in the High Castle, when he looked at the hospital smokestacks and remarks that they cremate the disabled and the r-word-ed on Tuesdays.

Just thinking once you take the rights and don't hate me from the not-normals, you take the rights from women on their bodies, then you eventually take them from the more vulnerable in society. As in you remove the safe guards, the societal responsibilities, the programs to support them.

The argument will be it's not the government's responsibility to take of them. It would be through charitable donations only and charitable organizations to find the homes/jobs etc.

This would only work for those in geographical position to take advantage of it. Not to mention any kind of protection the government could have given them to prevent discrimination against them.
I got nothing to say here.

Ten to one next will be the disabled.
Mentally handicapped would happen first IMO.
Probably everyone disabled will be included by them since there are some jackasses that think anyone disabled is mentally handicapped.

Especially after they get "being not heterosexual or cisgender" reclassified as mental illnesses... You know, AGAIN... Probably throw in free-think- sorry, "hysterical" women, while they're at it.

I think their current thing is that "being not heterosexual or cisgender" is pornography.

Any media that mentions them in a way that doesn't involve torches and/or pitchforks. This is also part of their anti-library initiatives.
