Quote:
Dr Sabine Hildebrandt, from Harvard Medical School, says at least half of the 800 images in the atlas came from political prisoners. They included gay men and lesbians, gypsies, political dissidents and Jews.

That evil wasn't so much just political Nazi Germany. It was eugenics, the set of beliefs and practices that aim to improve the genetic quality of a human population by excluding certain genetic groups judged to be inferior. Influenced by Charles Darwin's theory of natural selection, advocated a system that would allow "the more suitable races or strains of blood a better chance of survival" The practice of which was just as big in the United States and Britain as it was in Nazi Germany. Heck I think even the happiest place on earth still has mandatory sterilization requirements for those genetically and morally inferior humans called transgenders.
