The article discusses Donald Trump's attacks on transgender rights, likening them to the systemic targeting of groups during Nazi Germany as expressed in Martin Niemöller's poem. It highlights a specific executive order from Trump's administration recognizing only two sexes, indicative of a broader trend towards prosecuting those deemed enemies. This focus on dismantling "woke gender ideology" represents an assault on governmental infrastructure meant to protect citizens' welfare. The article calls for a leftist acknowledgment of these tactics as they threaten both individual rights and the functions of the administrative state essential for societal order.
Many critics of his Administration have cited the German pastor Martin Niemöller, whose 1946 poem "First They Came" describes Nazi Germany's progressive targeting of maligned groups.
The push to eradicate the so-called "woke gender ideology" is also part of the assault on the government itself.
The administrative state, a term thrown around with much derision in conservative circles, is simply a label for what the government does to keep America running.
Executive agencies exist, in large part, to make determinations that ensure the health and safety of the people served.
