@Kirwan I think if you edit your first line to "people aren't smart" you have your answer, using the holocaust in a example will be seen as anti sematic, that's why generally people steer clear of it
in saying that saying comparing being a jew to a political choice is pretty flawed, one is very much a choice and can change
You can convert to Judaism as well.
She wasn't doing that anyway, she was pointing out that one of the methods the Nazis used to turn neighbour on neighbour was to dehumanize them first. She was making the point that this is what she thinks is happening now in the US, and was saying this is the path it leads too.
A common argument, usually made by the left in modern politics.

@Kirwan yes, you're not wrong, but these are pretty nuanced arguments and might be expecting too much for the a lot of people to understand especially on a platform that literally limits the number characters
my understanding of Nazi Germany was very much based around blood and family tree and genetic attributes deemed to be associated with Jewish people rather than the religion itself

Luke Skywalker's MANDALORIAN Rescue Synced with Luke's Theme
Luke Skywalker's epic fight in The Mandalorian was incredible. But it's even more moving with this an edit bringing in John Williams' iconic theme.

fuck. king. rad.
Binary Sunset is my favourite piece of movie music ever.
John Williams is the real hero of star wars. His music absolutely makes it. Those themes are so iconic you don't even need the visuals any more for them to put a smile on your face.

Reckon Gina was a tad hard done by.
Why do people even give a furk about Twitter?
Anyway it’s a shame. She was a great character and was looking forward to seeing how they developed her.
Cancel culture wins again. What she tweeted was a bit dumb and brainless but perish the thought she actually had an opinion that might offend someone.
Extremely ironic given Walt Disney was accused of anti semitism and racism during his life and at one stage banned blokes with beards and long hair from Disneyland ?!?!
