About the holocaust: Say instead of 6 million Jews
Hitler killed six million Hindus instead. How would Hitler be perceived today? Would the holocaust be talked about as much?

Edited by Uncle Putin: 7/16/2014 11:32:24 AMUm... yes? It wasn't such a big deal BECAUSE they were Jews. It WAS a big deal moreso than the other mass slaughters out there because it was the brain child of the most dangerous person in the world, a person trying to take over the world and trying to destroy every single nation out there. Of course it would get more attention. Pictures of it were at the forefront of the media because it was what Hitler was doing, our greatest threat to peace at the time. It had nothing to do with them being Jews. The reason murderers like Mao, Stalin, Pol Pot (is that how you spell it?) didn't get as much attention is because they weren't necessarily threatening world peace. They were just destroying their own little corner of the world. Doesn't make it right that we give the Jews more attention but the culture of the media and the state of the world at the time around these mass murders dictates that the public paid more attention to the Jews. Again, why is this? Because the same person who was killing millions of Jews and other undesirables was also trying to take over the -blam!-ing world. He was our closest and most dangerous threat. That's why we paid attention to what he did.

It's hard to believe there was six million Jews back then.
-
If we're getting to the point of why the emphasis on the Jews being killed, I'd say it's due down to the fact that Hitler above all else, seemed to hate them the most and that's one of the reasons he's remember so much.
-
Probably.

2 RepliesMy friend blames the Hews for the Holocaust, and says that if they weren't there it wouldn't have happened... :/

3 RepliesYou make a good point. Over twice that number of Chinese died at the hands of the Japanese and there are no movies about that. When there are, its about the white people who witnessed it.

1 ReplyOver 10 million died with Mao so...
-
Probably not. Countless time I have seen people cry crocodile tears about the holocaust.
-
Considering people rarely point out the other 5 million people that weren't Jews that were killed in his camps, I'd say that they wouldn't.
-
Just as horrendous.

1 ReplyHitler was a great man. We need more leaders willing to make the sacrifices he made, and capable of creating the solutions he created. #HitlerForCommunityManager2015

Edited by LowIQPlayz3445: 7/14/2014 8:25:03 PM6 million killed is 6 million killed. Jews, Christians, Hindus, atheists, doesn't matter. 6 million dead is a tragedy.

Edited by Choopie: 7/14/2014 8:12:53 PMProbably not in our world but in there world yes.

8 RepliesEdited by Gary: 7/14/2014 7:51:18 PMProbably not. No one really talks about the Armenian genocide, so why talk about Hindus? The Jewish people pumped up the jam on it all, and they keep bringing it up every chance they get, so naturally it'll get talked about a lot.
