I don’t even….so, apparently, the flagship newspaper in this country publishing something that should, at very least, make more Ashkenazi women get screened for cancer and perhaps save their lives….yeah, that’s the same as Auschwitz. This is so fucking insane that I’m speechless. Yes, she needs to be in a rubber room.

It’s my understanding that a couple with both parents of Ashkenazi descent will have pregnancies screened for Tay-Sachs, because that’s also a deadly disease that disproportionately affects Ashkenazi populations. I suppose in Gellar’s world, such screenings for genetic diseases are just confirming Himmer’s thoughts about racial superiority/inferiority.

Exactly. I’m used to her spewing as I get Google alerts about all the stuff she writes every day, but this one left me gaping at the screen in astonishment.
