Remember that people are often stupid, not evil. You can do pretty awful things if you’re dumb enough. Someone’s razor, forgot who’s

Were Auschwitz and Daschau tourist destinations or are we on our way to being worse than the Nazis?
the nazis didn’t have the benefit of learning from a previous regime that their actions are abhorrent; we do.
Quite the opposite in fact, they were directly inspired by previous settler-colonialism and successful genocide.
Writing in “Mein Kampf” in the 1920s, Hitler praised the way the “Aryan” America conquered “its own continent” by clearing the “soil” of “natives” to make room for more “racially pure” settlers and lay the foundation for its economic self-sufficiency and growing global power. Indeed, the concept of Lebensraum was coined and popularized by Friedrich Razel, who said his theory of colonization and racial replacement drew inspiration from the American historian Frederick Jackson Turner’s “frontier thesis” and its identification of “colonization of the Great West” as central to American history and identity.
the difference is that the nazis actions popuarly known as abhorrant, whereas the american’s actions were seen as neutral at best.
