Bro just admit it, US is the OG third Reich. It was literally founded on Genocide and kept doing it until the Native population became irrelevant. The Nazis literally planned Lebensraum after being inspired by 'Manifest Destiny' and modeled the Nuremberg laws after the Jim Crow. I suggest you read a book.
I am once again telling you to pick up a history book on US imperialism. You fucks just care about atrocities more when it's inflicted on white people more than when it's inflicted on colored people. The US literally preserved fascism in the western hemisphere to prevent the spread of Socialism.
If anything, it exposes how inhumane and cruel the US Foreign policy has been. Why are you so fixated on making the American Empire look less harmful which is contradictory to the historical reality? Are you an Ameriphile?
I hope you take a moment and reflect on why you insist on approaching comparative history in this way.
Maybe it's because this is a comment thread about comparative history being performed in the same manner?
The post does not go into kill counts as a direct comparison. It simply states that the us will be remembered as worse than nazi germany. So no, that is not the reason. I'm calling out your behavior specifically as problematic.
Sounds like they are in good company, millions is millions, but I'd argue America has committed more genocides.
