Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.
This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

If a Democratic Vice President went on Face the Nation and said that the Catholic Church only opposes abortion because it wants to make money, their political career would be over and there would be calls for them to resign. Vance is benefitting right now from a double standard.

A 17 year old opened fire in a Nashville high school today. Hours before police shared his name, fringe extremist communities correctly identified him as one of their own. He left behind a manifesto expressing unadulterated neo-Nazi ideology that endorsed violent “accelerationst” tactics.
