Default Re: We humans only care about ourselves.

Kaio: Case Closed. Nobody agrees with him because his explanation of things is way out there and unreasonable.

As for genocides, why are we even trying to compare different leaders and their attempts at wiping entire civilizations off of the face of the earth? You say the Holocaust wasn't as bad as Stalin, but which one really hit home? You hear less stories about Stalin's KGB (Secret Police, that sounds great!) making folks disappear than you do about people being shoved into ovens, Jewish families being torn apart and seeing each other occasionally (and maybe not at all if, say, a certain family member wasn't considered healthy enough to exist inside the camp), the disgusting conditions, the sub-par food, and everything else that went on with the mistreatment of Jews.

This is like trying to compare a terrorist attack to another. "Well, now we don't consider the Oklahoma City Bombing all that bad since 9/11 happened!"

Edit Also, Kaio, I knew a kid who actually had nearly half of his brain removed for some reason. Went to a friend's church. That was one annoying and stubborn mother fucker and shares many similarities with you.
