    No, I get their point that just because you’re comparing two genocides doesn’t make either of them “not a big deal”.

    Although, imho, comparing genocides does seem like a kinda shitty thing to do for the same reason you don’t respond to “I’ve had a traumatic and exhausting day” with “Oh yeah? Well my day was WAY worse!”.

      1 million deaths is child’s play compared to the black plague, WWI and WWII

      It must be ok to kill 1 million people then
