  I mean if you don't think that talking about trans people in the Weimar Republic and how their life was affected by the rise of Nazism is opening yourself up for a political battle or talking point I don't know what is.

    Unlike the linked article, your comment actually IS explicitly against the site guidelines, so I maintain my view that you did NOT read them before posting, and are now just trying to come up with an argument retroactively. > "Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, flag it." Second, I think the argument you have come up with is laughable. No, I don't think historical details about the Weimar Republic are actually just talking points for current political fights. If you do, I think that says more about you than about the article.

      So if someone were to link an article about how "prostitution and single motherhood rates went way up during the Weimar Republic before the Nazis cracked down on degenerate behavior" that would just be an interesting "historical detail" and would not be off-topic? Or is it only off topic to say things that discredit progressive politics.
