Prof: Trump’s transgender ban echoes ‘Nazi eugenic propaganda’A Clemson University professor is comparing President Trump’s ban on transgender soldiers to “Nazi eugenic propaganda,” calling it “ableism deployed to incarcerate or kill disabled people.”“As a friend pointed out, the notion that trans people are ‘too expensive’ echoes the ideologies of ableism deployed to incarcerate or kill disabled people, and Nazi eugenic propaganda against disabled people,” Clemson University English professor Jonathan B. Field wrote in a Facebook post one day after Trump announced the decision in a tweet.In three separate tweets, Trump stated that “After consultation with my Generals and military experts, please be advised that the United States Government will not accept or allow Transgender individuals to serve in any capacity in the U.S. Military.”Trump then elaborated that “Our military must be focused on decisive and overwhelming victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail.”Field also pondered “how much of the transphobic insistence that all bodies be cis bodies also comes from an ideology of ableism, as a version of a demand that all bodies be perfect, symmetrical, and legible,” subsequently elaborating in the comments section that “the demand that the bodies of strangers be legible in terms of gender seems like it might have some corollaries in similar demands that strangers be racially legible.”
