Welcome to Gaia! ::


Were the Nazis that evil? I mean think about it, on the atrocity list they really aren't anything special.
The Nazis killed nowhere near as many people as the Russians or the Chinese, or even the Khmer Rouge.

So why do we focus on the Nazis rather than the Russians?

...Because Nazis killed people?

Killing less people doesn't justify killing, and it doesn't make Nazis any less evil than any other group that has committed genocide.

That's like saying that a serial killer who got caught after killing only four people is less evil than a serial killer who got caught after killing twelve. They're both evil, one just didn't have as much time to be evil.

Because evolving society and most learning criteria want to indoctrinate children to be against such things as the Nazi regime, communism, and practically anything against their country. idea

Your post makes no sense. If you bothered reading the three or four sentences total you would at least get the hint that there are groups that killed far more people than the Nazis -- Which range from tens of thousands to 6 million people maximum -- to the communists in just Soviet Russia ruled by Stalin alone that killed 20+ Million, or Mao's 73 Million.

I don't know about you mate, but killing = bad.

Killing is just as bad whether it's 1 person killing another or an Army killing thousands.
So yes. The Nazis were that bad.

Killing tens times as many = worse.

Would Stalin and Mao be worse?

There is no worse or better. Evil is evil.

I never said there was a better evil, only a worse evil.

I'd say the higher ups were evil though as for troops on the front line. Most of them were just as scared as every other person drafted into war.

You missed the point.
Again, there is no worse evil. Evil is evil no matter how many die or how they die it's still the same evil.

Yes there is certainly a scale of evil, that's why there is a term called "the lesser evil".
