    Did I say the slave trade was an industrial genocide?

    You are cherry picking parameters to try and make the Holocaust some kind of unique tier of atrocity.

    In the same time frame 20 million Slavs died.

    On certain islands in the Caribbean, 100% of the native population was murdered and displaced, which is more than 90%.

    Yes, there are certain aspects of the Holocaust that are unique, but it is not in a unique tier by itself. There are many metrics that make other atrocities worse.
