Summary
On his first day in office, Trump signed an executive order mandating federal agencies use the term “sex” instead of “gender,” erasing recognition of gender identity.
This has led to the removal of essential information from government websites, including Social Security Administration guides on changing sex identification, LGBTQIA+ resources, and State and Labor Department pages on gender discrimination and passports.
Critics argue the policy spreads misinformation, adds stress for LGBTQ+ individuals, and echoes Trump’s previous suppression of climate change data during his first term.
According to the census of June 16, 1933, the Jewish population of Germany, including the Saar region (which at that time was still under the administration of the League of Nations), was approximately 505,000 people out of a total population of 67 million, or somewhat less than 0.75 percent.

Exactly. And if you have a small enough minority like that, the chances of the general public knowing a member of that minority so that they can actually recognize their humanity is much smaller, making them more useful as a scapegoat.
And demonizing a marginalized group is great for fascists riling up popular support.
