    Okay yeah you are right. Its not as concentrated as Nazi Germany did. Just more slowly.

      You completely missed my point here. By making these comparisons you don’t show how cruel the current event is, you just relativize the holocaust itself.

      Also where would you draw the line? Is the USA performing a holocaust on mexicans? I mean ICE separated kids from their families and locked them up somewhere near the border, “it’s almost like a nazi concentration camp”. While we’re in the US: black communities living in ghettos while being regularly mistreated by police and others? “Sounds like the Warsaw ghetto to me.” And what about LGBTQ people being persecuted, abused and killed by lynchmobs in muslim countries? “That’s basically Kristallnacht!”

      Do you see what i did there? Are the things i mentioned cruel, awful and just wrong? Yes, of course. Are they somehow comparable to the darkest point in human history where murder on jews and other minorities was industrialized? Absolutely not.

        Are all those things targetted to harm (mildly put) people of certain flock on the large scale? Yes absolutely. Also it was you who put the Holocaust onto the table, not me.

          That doesn’t mean that this action should be compared to the holocaust or even to other genocides for said reasons.

          Also it was you who put the Holocaust onto the table, not me.

          What are you talking about in the following sentence if it’s not the holocaust?

          And they are genociding them just like we (Nazi-Germany) did to them before.

          Alright, i think it’s pointless, you either don’t get or don’t want to get my point. Keep on with your holocaust trivialization, it’s absolutely on par with the AfD Zeitgeist in our country.👍
