And I just said that the current state is not comparable, not yet. The Holocaust started 1940. We are in the precursor though, I never said anything else.
We are on the way to something that can be get as bad as the Holocaust, for sure.
And I don’t see any issue comparing it. But the current comparsion is trivializing what happens 1940 and can happen in the near future again.
And again; that is my perspective and the perspective of some Germans is spoke to over exactly this thread. This does not mean that you should not make those comparisons!
You should be aware about the fact that you will offend people, and, that such memes can be as a matter of fact violating law in some countries. Not this one, but one should know this.
That is all.
And to your last part: 100% on the nose. See, if people start thinking, the the current state is comparable to 1940, then we are fucked. Because 1940 is described as the worsed genocide of the modern world.
And especially Americans misused the word and trivialized the Holocaust. So maybe I am overly sensitive ok this one.
I cite Elie Wiesel, a Holocaust survivor:
I cannot use [the word ‘Holocaust’] anymore. First, because there are no words, and also because it has become so trivialized that I cannot use it anymore. Whatever mishap occurs now, they call it ‘holocaust.’ I have seen it myself in television in the country in which I live. A commentator describing the defeat of a sports team, somewhere, called it a ‘holocaust.’ I have read in a very prestigious newspaper published in California, a description of the murder of six people, and the author called it a holocaust. So, I have no words anymore.
I acknowledge that nobody said that.
