I also agree that they can't be compared, but I'm posting on this side because of outcomes. The Jews survived, as a population, the Holocaust and were able to rebuild and strengthen their population. Also, most people look back on WWII with compassion for the Jewish people and reverence for their bravery in going through the ordeal. They did go through several years of hardships, but they're still here and the memories of the fallen are honored.

Native Americans are a forgotten peoples. They were wiped out and their culture is constantly misinterpreted, like in Peter Pan (the song "Why does the red man say 'How?'" or something like that.) In a sense, they are no longer Native Americans because their culture is destroyed and their peoples are scattered and have become known as alcoholics and casino owners.

Let me start by saying this isn't really a fair debate, as both groups were terrorized in horrendous ways. It's just unfair to compare victimization.

The Native Americans were practically wiped out for all intents and purposes, had their land stolen, and were given paltry consolations after fighting hard to get them. They were nearly wiped out because of disease, both purposely and accidentally, as well as the advantages technology gave Europeans in terms of weaponry. They were marched across the nation, barefoot, in the freezing cold, and many starved and died along the way. Furthermore, their culture and heritage have been completely perverted by the influx of Europeans into their land.

The Jews, on the other hand, were rounded up in an attempt to wipe them out, which failed. On that point, the Native Americans had it worse. Nonetheless, six million Jewish people died (in addition to millions more who were gypsies, prisoners of war, homosexuals, etc.), so it's not as though they escaped a terrible fate here. They were starved, separated from their families, and forced to work and live in the worst of conditions. Babies were thrown into incinerators, people were sent to gas chambers with the knowledge they were being sent to die, and brutal experiments were performed on human subjects. I think in this way, the Jewish were subject to worse in terms of actions against them.

So basically the question comes to which is worse the successful near-wipeout of a population and culture through horrific means or the unsuccessful attempted-wipeout of a population through worse means? I'm not sure we can compare.

Who's this "we" that you're talking about? I never killed a Native American nor did I make them move anywhere.

I think you have the settlers from the 1500s to the 1800s to blame for that.

According the Milgram Experiment, if you were a German working for the government just before the Nazi Party took power, the odds of you helping the Nazi Party are pretty good.

I agree. These aren't really two topics that can fairly compared. The Jews definitely went through some serious inhumane and hellish situations because of Hitler and the losers that decided to follow and obey him. Nothing can really be compared to the Holocaust; it was just horrendously awful.

The Native Americans were definitely treated like shit too. In fact, what the Europeans did to the Natives to gain control of America, is the main foundation of why I think this country is a corrupted and crass place. America is better than other countries just because we're a fascist Democracy? Not in my opinion. Europeans forced ownership of something that is in no ways, rightfully their owns. It's an insult to Native American's, to their culture, and to this country. Native Americans deserve a lot more respect and payback than they've been given.

So, really, two totally different situations. The Natives have been robbed of peace, ownership, and respect, and the Jews were robbed of any sense of humanity, as they were treated as if they were annoying pests.
