You live in a Western country. The Holocaust was perpetrated by a Western people, people very similar to you. It was systematic and calculated, not a result of wild raping and pillaging. It was not the result of famine. That's why we focus on it more heavily.
Here is archival footage from Night and Fog of people very similar to you calmly waiting to board trains as if they were going on vacation. Look at what they're wearing. All are wearing nice clothing, their bags are packed with a week's worth of clothes. You can see them then being crammed into the cattle cars. Most of these people were gassed immediately upon arrival.

Is there anything else like that in history? Genuine question.
