It's clearly not exactly the same as the Holocaust. But it's disingenuous to say it's nothing like the Holocaust either, because there are a lot of similarities.
- cc81 7y agoDo you think they are more similar to the Holocaust than the US internment camps?
- wnoise 7y agoI think they're closer to Nazi internment camps (which rather quickly transitioned to death camps) than the various US internment camps, yes. Are they death camps yet? Well, perhaps not. But there are none the less a hell of lot dehumanization. There are reports of forced abortions, rapes, medical experiments, and other tortures. To be clear, the US internment of the Japanese is a horrendous stain, but it clearly is far less evil than these camps.
