1/ While the word eugenics is typically associated with German | David Icke

1/ While the word eugenics is typically associated with Germany, and more specifically, with the atrocities of the Nazi regime, the eugenics movement began in the United States and Britain and was only later exported to Germany.

...

2/ The legalized practice of state-controlled breeding started in the United States. Beginning in 1907 and continuing until the 1970s, most states passed laws permitting the involuntary sterilization of those deemed “unfit” to reproduce.

...

3/ This resulted in 65,000 forced sterilizations in 33 states. One-third of these occurred in my home state of California, where the practice continued until 1964.

...

4/ Most of these unconsented operations were endorsed by psychiatric physicians working in the system of state hospitals (a system in which I served as ethics committee chair from 2017 - 2021). Doctors served as the gatekeepers of forced sterilization.

...

5/ Among the victims, Native Americans, Blacks, Hispanics, immigrants, the mentally ill, physically ill, and the poor were over-represented.

...

6/ Women were involuntarily sterilized three times as often as men, even though tubal ligation is medically riskier and more invasive for women than vasectomy for men.

...

7/ The last forced sterilization under U.S. laws was in 1983. The regime continued even longer in the penal system: after revelations that dozens of women were forcibly sterilized in the CA prison system from 2005 to  2011, the state finally passed a law banning this practice.

...

8/  A Washington Post headline in 2018 reported, “California Lawmakers Seek Reparations for People Sterilized by the State,” many of whom were still alive. This dark chapter in American history continued much longer than most Americans realize.
