I downvoted just because of your opening sentence. The closing part t seems like pedantic bullshit. The holocaust is not exceptional. It's not any more or less special than any genocide.

If it was the same severity Gaza wouldn't be existing anymore since its whole population would be dead since around 5 months. Yes, its a mass murder. But yes, you can also distinguish between mass murder and a mass murder on an industrial scale. If you can't distinguish, I have a few history books for you.

Severity has no bearing on the definition of a holocaust. Mass murder is mass murder, you know, the definition of a holocaust.

I'd say 40k death and still growing is pretty much an industrial scale. That and the razing of Palestine right now. It doesn't happen with rocks.
