Where Is Anne Frank, the new animated feature from Ari Folman (Waltz with Bashir) is new to watch at home. A visionary retelling of the Anne Frank story that connects her legacy to oppression in the modern world.

It's about in Europe currently, I mean if they want to make comparisons of genocide one can do that.
But I don't think modern Europe is like Nazi Germany at all, even though there is a lot of issues.

look up the definition of genocide…
If oppression is a form of genocide then everything becomes genocide… and then the word loses its entire meaning…
Sigh

I'm well aware of the thousands of years of oppression of Jews in Europe...
Again you cannot compare, minimalizating the Holocaust leads to distortion then denial
@BrooklynSmash
@MadmanFilms
Europe is currently nowhere near the path to genocide… and to suggest otherwise is a form of Holocaust distortion.
You cannot even compare. Now if you want to make comparisons where there was genocide in modern history that’s more accurate.

Yeah exactly, it’s a whitewashing of history, that when framed as a reference to todays problems in society almost implies that the problems of today are greater than the events of the Holocaust

It was basically a summer camp with some manual labor until there were supply shortages thanks to the allies.
Neither oppression or genocide are appropriate terms.
