France and the UK went out of their way to let the Nazis gobble up bits of Europe. They only pushed back after Poland. Fuck this revisionist history
Churchill was a villain, but not the "chief villain". And the Holocaust was very intentional.
It was an accident the same way that arranging an orgy, renting a space for said orgy, hosting said orgy, advertising said orgy, inviting people to said orgy, hiring people to organize said orgy, supplying said orgy, and participating in said orgy until you got caught by your wife naked in a pile of bodies was accidentally cheating. Oopsy.
They didn't rent space for the orgy....they made purpose-build orgy compounds.
So your place this Saturday?
Oh come now. Whom amongst us hasn't oopsidentally founded a violent political movement, written a manifesto, taken over a country, and then run an entire propaganda and military-industrial complex for a number of years with a chief goal of exterminating several different ethnicities, sexual orientations, and cultures? Let he who is without sin cast the first stone, sir or madam!

Churchill was the Netanyahu of his time, right down to liquidating inconvenient ethnic groups.
Hitler was in the same time and worse, thus stealing the "chief villain" title.
Don't forget Stalin. Churchill had some stiff competition in the villain league.
If we sat here listing all the competition, we'd be here for days. Unit 731, Pol Pot, Mao, Gottlieb and Dulles, so many other villains.
I wish you luck on your crusade to convince people that Churchill was worse than Hitler. You’re going to need it.
Who is saying the Holocaust wasn't a meticulously planned, documented and executed Genocide?

I'm frustrated and confused but I'm just gonna get off the Internet for a bit.
The image and link of the post say that Tucker Carlson was enamored by a "historian" who claims that the Holocaust was an accident.
Ah, I was having a bad day. Thought I was being accused of Holocaust denial, repeatedly.
What a wonderful reason to call the holocaust an accident. Someone acted like a selfish, stupid prick, so they must be the root of all evil in this conflict.
Sorry. My bad. Must have missed the memo that said “Hitler whooooooooopsed them holocautz LOL”
Hitler in suspenders and thick rimmed glasses pointing at mass graves of naked emaciated Jewish men women and children asking in a nasally voice... "Hat das gemacht?" ("Did I do thaaaaat?")
This is a slaughter of my peoples language. It’s drunk Yoda levels of bad. But it’s also so fucking funny.
I'm sure we're all shocked that Google Translate butchered a translation. "Drunk Yoda levels of bad" sets a realistic expectation on my linguistic abilities though.
What... How am I saying the Holocaust was an accident? I was pointing out the concessions the other European powers made to Nazi Germany before the start of the war
And who gobbled up the other part of Poland?
The soviets...
All I was doing was pointing out that other European countries conceded to Nazi territorial demands before the war started. I suppose I was trying to imply that no, the UK didn't start WW2. I really know not much about Churchill so it was barely on topic.
