      The vast majority of these people died before the US even conceptually existed.

      Germany didn’t write the holocaust out of their history like Americans did.

      To mock the line I keep seeing in this thread full of apologists: Nazi Germany wasn’t quite there yet. They would have been as bad as the US if they had time.

          Nazi Germany literally modeled their society off of the United States from Jim Crow apartheid to the frontier genocide.

          You’re wrong. It’s not a contest. If they had been allowed to ‘let things that happened a hundred years ago fade away’ like they were planning THEN it would be a contest because they would have succeeded in creating a European America.

          The project of Nazi Germany is literally the same project as Israel is literally the same project as America

          It is exactly one thing: Settler colonialism and the only difference is the conditions of when and where and who. But that only goes as far as the particulars.

      Disgusting take, acting as if genocide was not colonial policy. You desperately need to read Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz - an indigenous people’s history of the US.
