Welcome to the Unpopular Opinion community!
How voting works:
Vote the opposite of the norm.
If you agree that the opinion is unpopular give it an arrow up. If it's something that's widely accepted, give it an arrow down.
Guidelines:
Tag your post, if possible (not required)
- If your post is a "General" unpopular opinion, start the subject with [GENERAL].
- If it is a Lemmy-specific unpopular opinion, start it with [LEMMY].
Rules:
1. NO POLITICS
Politics is everywhere. Let's make this about [general] and [lemmy] - specific topics, and keep politics out of it.
2. Be civil.
Disagreements happen, but that doesn’t provide the right to personally attack others. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Please also refrain from gatekeeping others' opinions.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Shitposts and memes are allowed but...
Only until they prove to be a problem. They can and will be removed at moderator discretion.
5. No trolling.
This shouldn't need an explanation. If your post or comment is made just to get a rise with no real value, it will be removed. You do this too often, you will get a vacation to touch grass, away from this community for 1 or more days. Repeat offenses will result in a perma-ban.
Instance-wide rules always apply. https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/

If they were even close, there would have been nothing left of Gaza after the first three days. Everyone that managed to survive somehow would be in concentration camps already. So yeah, not even close. Still bad tho...
Just because israel is going about their genocide differently doesnt make it less evil. They have the support of many countries that felt bad for what hitler did to them. So of course they are keeping a line of not going to far in order to stay looking like a good guy.
So by your logic this is equal in evilness

17 million is a larger number than 30,000.
That doesn't make what the Israelis are doing excusable or any less of a crime. It does mean what they're doing isn't on the same scale as the Nazis.
There have been larger genocides. Nazis are only at the forefront because they were the only ones to industrialize genocide. The intent and rhetoric of Israel is directly comparable though.
Since the six days war? Nah
The Nazis killed more people out of more people over a larger period of time. In Gaza at least 30000 people have been killed, and that at least is doing a lot of heavy lifting, in less than five months. There are also at least 60000 wounded, again at least. Now remember that all of Gaza has 2.5 million people. Leave Israel for four years and in relative terms they'll be about as bad as what the Nazis did.
30,000/2.4 million (population of Gaza) = 1.25%
6 million Jews / 9.5 million pre-war European Jewish population = 63%
Operation Rheinhard:
https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.aau7292
1.25/9.5 = 13.6% of the Jewish population in Europe in 100 days.
I get people are angry and why people make the comparison, but it's quite easy to debunk that it was on a similar scale to what the Nazis did. The numbers don't lie.
Nazi/Holocaust comparisons undermine any criticism you make of Israel, because what they did is so clearly on a different scale. If you want to win the argument, it's better to avoid these hyperbolic comparisons.
Okay good point. I guess I underestimated the Nazis.
Where are you getting 17? 6 million Jews, and 5 million “others” is what I found.
Are you counting war casualties?
