Vanity: Planned Parenthood's Margaret Sanger on Charity, Disease and Sterilization

The Pivot of Civilization (Margaret Sanger) ^ | 1922 | WPtG

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

Organized charity itself is the symptom of a malignant social disease. Those vast, complex, interrelated organizations aiming to control and to diminish the spread of misery and destitution and all the menacing evils that spring out of this sinisterly fertile soil, are the surest sign that our civilization has bred, is breeding and perpetuating constantly increasing numbers of defectives, delinquents and dependents.
"The Pivot of Civilization", Page 108

It [charity] encourages the healthier and more normal sections of the world to shoulder the burden of unthinking and indiscriminate fecundity of others; which brings with it, as I think the reader must agree, a dead weight of human waste. Instead of decreasing and aiming to eliminate the stocks that are most detrimental to the future of the race and the world, it tends to render them to a menacing degree dominant.
"The Pivot of Civilization", Pages 116-117

The most serious charge that can be brought against modern “benevolence” is that it encourages the perpetuation of defectives, delinquents and dependents. These are the most dangerous elements in the world community, the most devastating curse on human progress and expression.
"The Pivot of Civilization", Page 123

It now remains for the U.S. government to set a sensible example to the world by offering a bonus or yearly pension to all obviously unfit parents who allow themselves to be sterilized by harmless and scientific means. In this way the moron and the diseased would have no posterity to inherit their unhappy condition. The number of the feeble-minded would decrease and a heavy burden would be lifted from the shoulders of the fit.

Progressives do not want to discuss their own history. I want to discuss their history.

Some juicy quotes from Margaret Sanger, Patron Saint of the Left. The more people know the truth about her evil beliefs, the more people will be repelled by Planned Parenthood and the entire culture of death. Odd how leftists like the cradle to grave welfare Sanger seemed to abhor, and yet the Left also adheres to the culture of death Sanger promoted. I assume the charity Sanger hated was private charity, as I don't think there was much government welfare at the time.

The minister's work is also important and he should be trained, perhaps by the Federation as to our ideals and the goal that we hope to reach. We do not want word to go out that we want to exterminate the Negro population, and the minister is the man who can straighten out that idea if it ever occurs to any of their more rebellious members.
-- Margaret Sanger, December 10, 1939

Think of all the "black leaders" on the left that fit this template. Rev. Jackson, Rev. Sharpton. Minister Farrakhan, Rev. Wright... even Martlin Luther King Jr was co-opted, and was awarded the Planned Parenthood Margaret Sanger Award in 1966 (it was accepted by Coretta Scott King).
