This movement sought to take all who were "unfit" for society away and isolate them so they could be "normalized" and become socially acceptable persons.
This movement is known as the eugenics movement, which aimed to improve the genetic composition of the human population through selective breeding and sterilization of certain individuals deemed "unfit" or "undesirable." Eugenics was rooted in the belief that some people were inherently inferior and needed to be removed from society in order to create a more "perfect" and socially acceptable population. It was widely practiced in the early 20th century and led to the forced sterilization of thousands of individuals, particularly those with disabilities, mental illnesses, and other perceived "undesirable" traits.
