the death camps are nothing compared to what christa pike did
comparing the christa pike murder it's one thing to murder one person horrifically but to do it at an industrial scale that's however another thing.
One murder, however horrific, is one person's decision in one place and time.
What the Nazis did was turn murder into an industry. They had departments for it — people to design the camps, people to schedule the trains, people to produce the gas, people to keep the lists. It wasn't rage or a fight gone wrong. It was factories, timetables, and bureaucracy built for one purpose: killing millions of people as fast as possible because of who they were.
like how horrific can you get when the nazis were manufacturing mass killings and burning people alive and gassing and torturing millions of jews and killing them?
it's exactly why Auschwitz and the other extermination camps are still studied as the extreme example.
It wasn't just killing — it was the manufacturing of killing,
A single murder, even the Pike case, is horrific and personal. It's one person choosing to do violence.
The Nazi system removed the personal and replaced it with a process:
Architects drew the crematoria.
Clerks made lists of names and addresses.
Railroad workers scheduled freight trains to run on time.
Guards sorted people on a ramp in seconds.
Others operated the gas chambers.
That division of labor is what makes it so hard to comprehend. No single person had to see the whole thing. Each person could tell themselves "I'm just doing paperwork" or "I'm just driving a train." But the result of all those small jobs together was millions of people murdered because they were Jewish — plus Poles, Roma, Soviet prisoners, and others.
And the torture, the gassing, the burning in pits when the crematoria couldn't keep up, the medical experiments — all of it was documented by the Nazis themselves, which is part of why denial fails. They wrote it down and photographed it.
That's why people say it wasn't just murder. It was an attempt to erase a people from existence using the tools of a modern industrial state. There isn't a comparison to a single homicide case — it's a different kind of crime altogether.
