#sterilisation

#ForcedSterilization is a worldwide problem!

As #Japan starts compensation payments, #ForcedSterilisation continues around the world

#NonConsensual #sterilisation of those considered genetically inferior persists in some parts of the world today

by Ewan Bolton, 18 February 2025

"Just last week, in the Miyagi prefecture of Japan, the local governor met victims of an official eugenics policy to apologise for the suffering they underwent.

"'On behalf of the prefecture, I would like to offer my heartfelt apologies for the immense suffering caused to the 900 (victims),' said Murai Yoshihiro while lowering his head.

"For many, the words 'forced sterilisation' bring to mind #NaziGermany and the devastating #eugenic policies pursued by #fascist regimes in the 1930s and 1940s. But the non-consensual sterilisation of those considered genetically inferior continued through the 20th century and persists in some parts of the world today.

"In January, victims of Japan’s forced sterilisation programme were finally able to apply for compensation for the first time. Between 1948 and 1996, at least 16,500 people were forcibly sterilised in Japan under the country’s #EugenicProtectionLaw. Nearly 60,000 more underwent #abortions without, or with only dubious consent. Most were mentally handicapped people or those with hereditary diseases.

"As Japan finally addresses this legacy, victims of forced sterilisation in #Peru are still fighting for compensation after 370,000 people were sterilised in what the UN has described as a potential crime against humanity. And in the #UnitedStates, #India, #China and parts of #Europe, non-consensual sterilisations continue to this day.

"As with the Nazis, almost all cases can be traced back to the discredited #PseudoScience of eugenics which was developed in the #UK at around the turn of the last century and had many supporters, including #WinstonChurchill.

"Japan’s Eugenic Protection Law was introduced in the wake of World War II. It granted medical institutions the right to administer sterilisations and abortions without the consent of patients. Of the 25,000 people sterilised under the programme, according to government figures only 8,000 gave consent. The legitimacy of the consent in these cases is disputed.

"A large number of the victims were children, some as young as nine years old. In Miyagi prefecture, in the northwest of the main island, more than half of the 859 sterilised between 1963 and 1981 were under the age of 18.

"At a press conference last month in Hyogo prefecture, a #DeafWoman, now in her 80s, described the emotional pain of being given an abortion without her consent. 'I was taken to the hospital, and I thought I would be going to the general medicine department. I was very surprised because I was taken to the gynaecology department … I am unable to forget what happened at that time'.

"In her prefecture alone, there are '14 or 15 other [#DeafPeople] who suffered harm' that are known about, 'but there are undoubtedly more', said Yoshimichi Hongo, chairman of the Hyogo Prefecture Association for the Deaf."

It's true about being a rich kid BUT this is ultimately proportional to understanding things or the right thing that happens that once people get rich or comfortable they want for more peace after and equality with change of slave-driven, war-torn worlds full of wars from #supermarket to #superpower countries muscling their weight and currency of debt everywhere...

I think everyone wants that but depends how desperate you are for money to be able to say it or go into old ways #IntoTheWild to try reclaim the ways being 'obsolete' and made increasingly ilegal just to be / live different. Similar to #Sterilisation of #Natives etc... but even just enjoy ourselves in a small sense is less and less possible now or less part of life itself when we're obviously needing nature and that atmosphere often.

It's so normal that although he could have done this or that with the money he knew it was toilet paper or bad stuff overall (and still is).
He knew why we're being forced onto and into these things and it's not healthy/

People choose not to share the world and even sell it for extortion effectively stealing it from future (#debt and #loans do exactly that as people look like they prosper while everything is being emptied out and re-sold for more in future).
All this happens to a point nobody can buy a house and negative maths takes over = negative society as the numbers are too while people ad more schemes to fill the black holes of profit never-endingly.

But anyway respect your view and just saying that on the steps to knowledge, love, sharing or ANYTHING it's totally normal to want to rise about feudal landlord style life which has proven costly and meaningless... and at the end without understanding / adding intelligence (keeping people dumb / hiding things deliberately) this is a morality issue of life underneath it all.

Words like "society" (he mentions in the pub a lot) and "morality" we are still working on what this means... and 100% money is not it and even opposite from thinking (perhaps promotes unthinking), so not even close to being responsible and putting it in the hands of fools which relabel it as #politics rather than just money making #profit.

Think of banks and who funds both sides of war etc...

Anyway - thanks.

Audio Clip about #MartinNiemoller "First they came for the..."

He was a willing Nazi #Soldier but then rejected #Nazism on #Religious grounds (Church vs. State stuff) and later as a #Priest went around spreading how he his inaction or indifference spells doom for everyone and why things needed to be done differently now else it would ome back around to them...

4 Keywords / vocabulary related to #Niemoller and Genocide:

indifference
inaction
passivity
= complicity

Martin Niemoeller's is an example of people who supported the Nazis for a long while (LIKE SUPPORTING #CAPITALISM FOR SOME PEOPLE LET'S SAY AS MODERN TYPE OF #OPPRESSION)
and then later *after actually meeting #Hitler allegedly) he flips to realise "no...." it's not the way ...

#Church and #State are different and hostile #Hitler made it so clear at the time...

Many #German people or people around the world didn't say a word and even killed against others (even worse dobbed Jewish people or reported #sympathizers (to let others kill them!).

They themselves also might have perished which is maybe accordingly to the #StepByStep #method of which the outcome is the same when repeating the bad work and just finding new targets to suppress or blame. I

A system of eating itself..
People put against other people (as competition in business or other types of war / extraction / money-making fastest).

TLDR = Niemöller's belief was that Germans had been complicit through their silence in the Nazi imprisonment, persecution, and murder of millions of people.

This has a nice audio version of softer wiki-like page. I've put this on my Mastodon and maybe attached it if I remember. Excellent for people to hear often to stop encroaching criminalization of every single sector and type of person

PEOPLE CAN'T EXPECT GOVERNMENT TO CHANGE AT ALL OR BEG FOR LOVE FROM THEM CONSTANTLY !!!! IT'S THEIR SELF-GIVEN JOBS TO SCREW PEOPLE!

Political policies and campaigns are often based on taking away 'certain' freedoms and then slowly taking away all of them.

#Politics is what is done to you basically - just a bit more 'diplomatically' so it causes less of a scene and instead do it step by step like that #Grandma #Game behind your back while at your at work, getting closer all the while to their ideal scenario from the start... Total control.

Someone should literally plot all these changes to see how it's part of the same patterns and historically going towards the same crushing control / reducing of #community #people and #freespeech.

Für alle die ähnliche Hürden wie ich zu Beginn erleben: Lasst euch nicht entmutigen! Die Seite https://www.selbstbestimmt-steril.de half eine Klinik zu finden die meinen Wunsch respektierte, ohne nachzufragen, ohne Probleme.

"Zu jung", "In Ihrer Lebenssituation kann sich noch viel ändern", "führen wir unter 30 Jahren so nicht durch" waren die Ablehnungsgründe der Kliniken als ich vor einem 1/2 Jahr began mich um meine Sterilisation zu kümmern. Nach kurzer Recherche stieß ich auf eine Klinik die mir half. Vor 2 Wochen wurden meine Eileiter entfernt. Als ich nach der OP mein Bewusstsein wiedererlangte fühlte ich nur Glück und Frieden

Die Verweigerung der Sterilisation aus nichtmedizinischen Gründen, wenn Faktoren wie Geschlecht, Alter oder gesellschaftliche Normen als Hindernisse gesehen werden, ist ein Angriff auf die sexuelle Selbstbestimmung

Anger in #Japan as report reveals children were forcibly sterilised

“The report noted that #sterilisation under the now defunct #eugenics law – which allowed authorities to carry out the procedure on people with #intellectualdisabilities, mental illness or hereditary #disorders to prevent the birth of “inferior” children…”

“The report did not reveal why the law was created, why it took 48 years to amend it or why the victims were never compensated,” Niisato said.” https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/jun/22/anger-in-japan-as-report-reveals-children-were-forcibly-sterilised?CMP=Share_iOSApp_Other

Krass.. eben wieder erzählt bekommen, dass bei einem paar Mitte 40 (sie 43, er 48) mit abgeschlossener Familienplanung, die Frau mit #pille (wenn auch mit #gestagan only und ohne #östrogen) verhütet. Völlig absurd

Noch viel spannender ist das Ergebnis einer Suche nach "beste Verhütungsmethoden ab 40". Da wird alles empfohlen von #Minipille über #Diaphragma, #Kondome und #Spirale und ab und an auch die #Sterilisation also die der Frau. #vasektomie gefühlt nur in jedem 10ten Artikel.. #WTF
