CMV: When talking about victims of the Holocaust, it is ignorant and racist to condemn it because of the deaths of 6 million Jews.

When the Holocaust comes up in conversation, people immediately throw around the number "6 million Jews" when talking about the victims.  Others will echo the number and talk about the horrors of the death camps and what it must have been like to be a Jewish person there, and also, isn't it horrible that 6 million Jews died in the camps?

Apparently the 5 million non-Jews who died are not worth mentioning.  Apparently they don't matter. 

Fact is, approximately 11-12 million *people* died in Hitler's death camps.  If you're talking about the horrors of the Holocaust and you only mention the 6 million Jewish victims, you are spitting on the graves of the other 5-6 million people who were every bit as human but not Jewish.

Imagine a plane goes down and the newscaster says "Horror in the skies!  Plane crashes and 87 white passengers die!"   Wouldn't you say "WTF?  Why are they only talking about the white passengers? Don't the other passengers matter?  Aren't they worth mentioning?"

It's wrong to focus *just* on the 6 million Jews.  What matters more is that 6 million Jews represented ~40% of the world population of Jews.

That's why it's worth mentioning.

>Imagine a plane goes down and the newscaster says "Horror in the skies! Plane crashes and 87 white passengers die!"

You picked a bad example.

Imagine that a plane crashed and among the victims was an entirety of a soccer team.  Do you think the fact that a soccer team was wiped out would be worth a separate mention?
