    That’s a lot of learning from the British Empire too then.

    And from that other moustached Austrian/German, Ed Bernays, on how to sell the genocide to the public. Top “advertising or marketing” [“crystalizing public opinion”/“manufacturing consent”] you got there, USA.

      Yeah, the British invented concentration camps. Or at least used them in the Boer wars, I guess they probably weren’t the first to gather people in camps to deal with some portion of them running a resistance.

      The Nazi innovation was the gas chambers.
