    There’s a difference between hateful and violent rhetoric generally and actively managing and overseeing death camps.

    The only difference is authority. If he had the authority to directly order deaths, he would have.

    Both Hitler and Goebbels took active actions that lead to peoples deaths. Actions that were more than simple rhetoric in the public sphere.

    So scenes like the Pulse nightclub shooting, chuds with guns raiding drag queen storytime events, and all the other anti-lgbtq attacks that Kirk and those like him had a direct influence on through their constant flood of hate and calls for violence just don’t count then, eh?
