California is Paying Reparations to Those Government Sterilized Against Their Will Yet Continues To Protect The Sterilization of Children
Paying off old victims while creating new ones
The Associated Press reported that the state has approved 51 out of 310 applicants for reparations.
Unlike racial reparations programs under way in the state, this initiative is paying at least $15,000 to persons either sterilized during the so-called eugenics movement or sterilized in state prisons.
The eugenics crusade, of which the founder of Planned Parenthood, Margaret Sanger, was a leading advocate, desired to sterilize by pressure or other means. In Sanger’s own words, “morons, mental defectives, epileptics,” along with criminals, the poor, illiterates, and the unemployed, were not fit to produce and should therefore be blocked from doing so.
This movement was comprehensive, especially popular in Britain as well as in Canada. In fact, Tommy Douglas, endorsed as the father of socialized medicine in Canada and labeled “Greatest Canadian,” once supported the sterilization of “mental defectives and those incurable diseased.”
California had the largest forced sterilization program in the United States, beginning in 1909. It victimized over 20,000 people.
According to Paul Lombardo, a law professor at Georgia State University and eugenics expert, California’s practice of ensuring “human improvement by better breeding“ reportedly inspired similar practices in Nazi Germany.
“The promise of eugenics at the very earliest is: ‘We could do away with all the state institutions — prisons, hospitals, asylums, orphanages,'” said Lombardo. “People who were in them just wouldn’t be born after awhile if you sterilized all of their parents.”
Sanctuary state for sterilization
TheBlaze previously reported that Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) signed into law a bill designating California a “sanctuary” for gender-dysphoric children and teens seeking so-called “gender-affirming care.”
The bill, introduced by the leftist state Sen. Scott Wiener (D) — who also introduced a bill softening punishments on LGBT adults who commit sex crimes against minors — establishes that transsexual youths can obtain hormone prescriptions, puberty blockers, and genital mutilations forbidden in other states.
The law also “prohibits the arrest or recognition of any demand for extradition of an individual that criminalizes allowing a person to receive or provide gender-affirming health care where that conduct would not be unlawful under California’s law.”
Not only is California guarding those who prescribe drugs that sterilize children whom Dr. Michael Biggs, a professor of sociology at the University of Oxford, claimed might have otherwise turned out to be sexually functional gays or lesbians, but it is also enabling clinicians and activists to threaten the lives of minors — kids who therefore may not live long enough to one day receive reparations.
