It’s such a leap as to be almost satirical sounding.
We don’t let children be in charge of things, do we sterilize them?
I don’t even agree with the fact that they shouldn’t be allowed to be in charge of things, but the fact that you went straight to eugenics is on you, and quite obviously not part of the original posters intent.
Remember, conservative brains are literally abnormal. They have enlarged regions dealing with fear and disgust.
This reminds me strongly of the pseudoscience surrounding phrenology and how that was used to discriminate against minorities.
Furthermore, the post goes on to say:
They should be given special treatment, but not allowed to in charge of anything more complicated than a butter knife.
This sort of language leads straight into justifying discrimination based on physical attributes. Advocating for the removal of self determination from political groups should always be given massive side-eye.
These transphobes’ ideologies need to be rejected on their merits, not by saying, as one of the replies says, “this needs to be brought up daily till our republican buddies realize they are becoming a sub class of underperformed human.”
This is more than flirting with the language of eugenics.
