You are correct, though I think the quote still has teeth. They may not have turned a million people into soap, but on the other hand they also killed way more than just a million people.

right. like the US president and UK prime ministers are not turning millions of middle eastern into soap as well.

yeah, i can totally see how that is impossible.

irony aside, the politics in play at those wars are exactly the same that allowed the nazists socialists to kill people in Europe as well (from the surrendering Jewish to the fighting french)

In the literal sense, currently nobody is turning millions of people into soap, and there is no evidence that this has ever happened. And to my knowledge, there are no boxcars full of humans speeding towards crematorium in the middle east right now.

I don't think that the foreign policy of the Five Eyes is really a relevant tangent at this point in the discussion, but suffice it to say that I am 'Not A Fan'(tm). If you're looking for someone to disagree with there, you'll have to find somebody else.

Right, now it's drone-launched crematoriums speeding towards boxcars.

Millions?

That kind of comment trivializes what was done in the name of Fascism. Just stop.

But you are fine trivializing the killing of hundreds just because before thousands were killed?

Compared to what was done by the Nazis, yes, it's trivial.

You know nothing about me or, well, anything.
