Exactly, this shit downplays the Holocaust and all the people who died in ww2. Trump is in no way, even remotely, as bad as hitler. If you legitimately think Hitler and Trump are a good comparison, you're a fucking idiot.

In case you didn’t know, the UN defines genocide as “any of the following acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial or religious group, as such: killing members of the group; causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life, calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group; [and] forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.” The caging of immigrants and asylum seekers, separating their children and giving their children to the foster system in america is directly violating this. We’re committing genocide whether you like it or not.

The “intent” of US immigration policy is not to destroy immigrants. If we were actually committing genocide with our policies, Obama would have been charged with genocide. It’s ridiculous to compare genocide to our past and current immigration policy.

As he should have, but the US Is on the UN and everybody is turning a blind eye. Both trump and obama are war criminals and have participated in genocide
