    Encouraging Jews to leave “voluntarily” was Hitler’s first step, too. Then when most people don’t want to leave their homes, you justify your escalation by saying you gave them a chance.

      It’s annoying making the comparison derails the conversation so much. Yeah, sure, one of the ethnicities involved happens to be repeating and that sucks, but that’s the one genocide people know stuff about.

      Edit: Lol, didn’t expect this to get downvoted. Why?

        I think the downvotes are from people with poor reading comprehension. Like the guy who thought you were laughing about genocide.

          Maybe, but communication is a two-way street. If everyone is having trouble reading my stuff I need to make it simpler.

          What!? Where did I say that??

          I was complaining that you can’t compare the Holocaust to the current situation in Israel-Palestine at all, even when they do the exact same stuff, or a lot of people freak out.

            People should freak out. If Israel succeeds in eradicating Palestine that will by definition be a holocaust. When you do the exact same things, you get compared.

              BRUH. Read the comment you replied to again. He’s saying the comparison is what people freak out about. He agrees with you.
