            It doesn’t. These are separate tracks, you don’t go from “accidentally” killing off an ethnic group to work/reeducation camps

            This is not a one dimensional axis, there’s multiple tech trees in authoritarianism. We’re in the one that might get labeled the second Holocaust

            The Holocaust was a certain type of genocide, not just an ethnic cleansing or total war scenario
