Pretty sure it was actually Jewish communists that lead to the millions of Russians that ultimately perished.
Inb4 someone calls me a bigot/anti-semite/etc...
Jewish communists didn't make the Nazi wartime decisions. Slavs were an ethnicity that "needed extermination" like the Jews did according to Hitler.

The holocaust is nothing but war propaganda. There are some interesting documentaries on the subject, and if you have the integrity to actually look into the validity of the Holocaust, you won't find a whole lot of evidence supporting it. No one denies that bad things happened during that time period, bad things happened to everyone. But a systematic extermination of the Jews is factually inaccurate.
My personal opinion on the matter is that Holocaust is a tool to suck all the air out of the room when discussing WW2. I look back on my own education and I feel that the Holocaust was the main topic studied when it came to WW2. But there are many important lessons to be learned from WW2 that are purposefully hidden from us, and that is the success that was Nazi Germany. A ethno-nationalist nation which strived to make the country, and it's people, the best they could be was a very powerful force. Issuing labor based currency and disregarding debt backed currency helped Germany pull itself up to be the wealthiest nation in Europe after being economically crippled.
They proved to the world just how evil and taxing the currency system truly is. They also stood up and said that the German People, who share a common blood, should be in control of their own destiny. Germany for the Germans! It is such a simple, beautiful, and novel idea that I am amazed that this sentiment is not brought up more often. That idea is a big no-no because so many financiers operate on an international level and wish to exploit countries. They can not allow nations to start kicking them out, and that is exactly what Germany did. They were striving to raise up their country and their people, to make things better.
THAT is the lesson we need to learn from Nazi Germany. Next time you're standing in line at McDonalds inside of a Wal-Mart, just take a second to look around and ask yourself if we could do just a little bit better.
Funny you should mention this. Again.
