"If you could stop killing people by the millions in a mass cultural genocide, that would be great. Thx."
Never thought I'd say this about the fucking Nazis, but to be fair, most of the world was entirely unaware of just how bad the concentration camps were until after the war, and those that were aware didn't become aware until the war was already past it's height and starting to wear down as Nazi Germany was slowly colapsing under its own weight.
Honestly, more of the world (and especially the US) was strongly opposed to the Nazis during WWII than the population now, because it's been so long. Which makes the fact you gave even more frustrating for me honestly. Because we have the information now. We know. There's no excuse for present day.
