Hitler took some inspiration from the United States— Jim Crow and Indian boarding schools in particular— but there were also other factors involved, particularly the millennia-long history of antisemitism in Europe and the backlash to Jewish Emancipation, the industrialization of the genocide, the complicity of other governments. I totally get the intention behind pointing this out especially right now, but the rest of that history matters too— please try not to erase it if you can
Hitler admired how America “gunned down the millions of Redskins to a few hundred thousand, and now keep the modest remnant under observation in a cage”. That is a direct quote. I am not ridiculous, you are just uneducated. This is not the mention how the Nazis called the Jim Crow south too racist for their taste.
The structural design of the concentration camps were built off of American infrastructure and systemic racism. While there are obviously more factors at play, I was more arguing that America is implicated in the planning of Nazi Germany. This is something that others are actively denying.
