Can't wait for the uniqueness of the holocaust to be a topic of importance in a political campaign in america in 2024. That's how it should be. That's normal
It's true, the Holocaust isn't unique, it holds the largest impact because it is the most recent one, at least for jews, given time other genocides will overshadow it, and it should be taught in the same vein as other historic atrocities.
There was the Effacer le tableau.
The Hutu massacres of the first Congo war.
The Rwandan Genocide.
The Bosnian Genocide.
The Isaaq Genocide.
The Anfal campaign.
The Gukurahundi.
The Cambodian Genocide.
The East Timor Genocide.
The Ikiza.
The Bangladesh Genocide, which may have a repeat very soon.
The Holodomor.
The Great Leap Forward.
The Armenian Genocide.
I can go on.
To limit education to but one atrocity, when all of these happened in the same century is an attempt to reframe or even hide these atrocities, for instance I have seen many socialists defend both the Holodomor and the Armenian Genocide, it does those being educated a disservice by treating the Holocaust as unique while surrounded by a myriad of other heinous genocides.
I will say context is important, and I don't know the context here, but yeah he's right to acknowledge the many other genocides that exist.
I mean the context in the screenshot provided is obviously correct and vindicates what Walz is saying. Someone screenshotted that as proof Walz was wrong because they could not read the words in it, just that it somehow disagrees with them.
He fucking says, right there, "to exclude other acts of genocide severely limited students' ability to synthesize the lessons of the Holocaust and ability to apply them elsewhere," that's the quote that this thread's OP and Twitter OP both looked at and got enraged by without reading! Guess what? If you teach people the Holocaust was completely unique and unprecedented and unrelated to any other patterns of behavior, the take-home lesson is that it might as well have been done by space aliens and there's no reason to be concerned with what humans are doing!
and by divorcing the Holocaust from all other genocides, it also allows people to not have a framework of other mass atrocities, which surprisingly enough seems to make them believe that the holocaust could have actually NOT happened, considering how they don't have a framework about how often atrocities happen.

Fun fact, I helped do an install of Amazon’s graphics on the side of their vans a while back and we were briefed on the cameras because if we did anything to set it off for unsafe driving the DRIVER assigned to the van would get in trouble even though they weren’t clocked in at the time we were doing the install.
The hyper-vigilance that Amazon employs against its employees is wild and I’m glad they’re speaking up about it.
