Mangus Hirschfeld
Discussion
Magnus Hirschfeld, a Jewish physician and sexologist, was a prime target for the Nazis. His works on homosexuality and sexual reform were seen as "degenerate." On May 6, 1933, they ransacked his Institute for Sexual Research in Berlin, burning thousands of his books and records. A brutal erasure of progressive thought.
Which sexology and LGBTQ+ titles were burned and who wrote them?
If he was a Marxist or what NatSoc's considered degenerate then yes.
nostr:npub17usj0jh86ged3pt34r5j6ejzfar9s2q5dl3l84tq8ymhfj2wz08sxmkf8w called it "pure censorship" but it would be no different than the religious right pulling DEI and LGBTQ+ books off of the shelves. Hitler was purging minds and hearts the hard way.
The right is pulling very graphic pornographic cartoo and other graphic books out of the teen section. The libraries moved the books to the adult section.
