Nazi Holocaust Comparisons

This is a WW2 topic so I feel okay with invoking Godwin's Law:This is the same excuse many Germans that took part in the concentration camps used. Turns out, still doesn't make genocide okay.

I was trying to avoid “Poe’s Law-ing” my comment, but Nazi genocide was exactly what I was thinking of. They (at least the higher ups) believed it was for the greater good, but the rest of the world (and history) has disagreed with them. So much so, we executed the higher ups during the trials afterwards.

1st comment on the article> there are among even the most terrifying of targeted massacres such as during the regime of pol pot or the misery of rwanda nothing comparable to the holocaust. Jewish children were being hanged from windows in the neighborhoods of germans whose neighbors knew the families. the german people eagerly and happily enjoyed herr hitler and his band of sick psychopaths and perverts and lest we forget to mention it, drug addicts. those who stood against these crimes we

You should educate yourself because what you ask for is basically what happened to jews in the third reich. Not even something toned down or a "behind the curtains" deal, by doing this you are not better than the nazi's themselves, you stoop to their level.

There's no question at all. It happened in many countries outside Germany, just with less publicity.For few pre-WW2 examples:Even Hitler refered to genocide of Armenians in Turkey http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armenian_GenocideJust before WW2 there was ethnic cleaning of Poles in USSR

Does this mean those doesn't count? This kind of logic stumps me.For the record, i responded your question almost instantly and HN didn't let me post. Got an error saying i am typing too fast.

Those sterilized during Nazi rule would like a word.

It's very possible for everyone to be guilty. We don't live in a world where if something isn't "useful" it isn't true.Your statement ends up reading sort of like "Is every Nazi guilty of the holocaust?" Technically maybe not, doesn't change the fact that of the matter that overall all Nazis are guilty.You can't run away from this with some garbage statement of "Not a very useful perspective." This incident literally killed an amo

> Hell, even Nazi Germany didn't last forever.How'd that work out for the millions slaughtered while the vast majority of the German population (who knew about the death camps) did nothing?I'm getting pretty sick of this twee bullshit about how "we've come back from worse!". No. Not all of us did. Stop it

Stopping another Holocaust or Nazi regime is not a good reason?
