I got banned once for saying the holocaust was one of many genocides throughout history and not unique...
Edit: I'm really curious to know if people downvoting the above statement think Nazis invented the genocide?
People are downvoting you, because while the Holocaust wasn't the first nor last genocide, it still is unique. Your initial statement makes two claims, but you only refer to the one less controversial one in your "curious edit".
It is unique in the sense that every genocide has been unique. My statement for which I got banned was in the context of 'nothing like this has ever happened to anybody else!'
