AK, RE: "you did not hear her right"

Of course I heard her right.

I find it scary that a society targeted, attacked and killed people. What's the guarantee a society doesn't do this again? Don't you find that scary?

If you ever have a chance to visit San Francisco, there's an art museum at the top of a hill in the city and it has my favorite monument - the monument asks you to remember the Holocaust so that no society attacks any group of people.

Are humans safe today or will this ever happen again? Has society changed? What is different today and is there a guarantee? What happened back then? Why (in the sense of understanding how to look for warning signs for self-survival) would anyone do something so atrocious.

I asked her how a society could attack and murder people. What was wrong? Was this society starving? Her answer was "there's no excuse."

I would have preferred a tangible answer like, "they were starving", so you know what to look out for and when there might be potential danger in a society. A tangible warning sign about human society is what I want. Otherwise it's this scary thing - a boogieman that can come out of nowhere with no warning whatsoever.

RE: "I do not know any survivors who would need an excuse to kill likes of Dr Josef Mengele"

How many survivors do you personally know? I think you should expand your contacts to people of various opinions, not just everyone that thinks alike.
