I get what you're saying but you couldn't have chosen a worse example... Like yeah absolutely fuck Churchill lol, he's a huge part of the reason why we're in this mess with Israel now

It's still a good example because as bad as Churchill was he was better than Hitler.

Was he, though? How many millions did he murder in the manmade Bengal famine?

I'm not denying Churchills crimes or painting him as good.

How many would Hitler have murdered if he had similar control over the region? Just look at General plan Ost...

There's a reason the USSR tried to ally with Churchill against Hitler before hostilities even started.

Sure, you have a point, just wanted to remind people that western European countries enacted many genocides to similar scale than Nazi Germany (or greater)
