Nazis went after the Roma first, a group that very few people were willing to stand up for. To this day, they're the forgotten people in that famous poem about who they came for first.
Just like with immigrants (supposedly the worst of the worst kind) they would start their policy of rounding up segments of the population based on the ones that will get the lightest push back. And trans people are unfortunately the first one to be targeted in that regard.
It's coming. They will probably start saying this loud as soon as they have sufficiently pumped this idea in people's heads. First concentration camps, then, why not "involuntary injections of lethal chemicals" or whatever they want to inject homeless people with. (Note that homeless people are also way too far outside of the margins of the society, so if one day they all disappear from the streets people would either not notice or think that it's a good thing that they're not around.)
I'm expecting we'll be turning yet another major corner on our path towards fascism in the coming months. Maybe they'll start by forcing transgendered people to wear a certain kind of armband.
