Original Note:
It is recognized historical fact that trans people were one of the groups targeted in the Holocaust. The US Holocaust Memorial Museum's page on Paragraph 175 (of the German penal code, expanded by the Nazis in 1935) makes that clear: https://encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/article/paragraph-175-and-the-nazi-campaign-against-homosexuality As does the Museum of Jewish Heritage: https://mjhnyc.org/blog/transgender-experiences-in-weimar-and-nazi-germany/ https://www.spiegel.de/panorama/bildung/marie-luise-vollbrecht-verliert-streit-um-meinungsaeusserung-a-fabb1812-5a5c-4b52-8982-590f5b0e6f2f
