Imagine not understanding what "most notable" means.

Most notable doesn't mean when it's mentioned that this is what's being referenced.

I said "most notable," and you thought that meant "there's no right to discuss its [other] qualities." So you misinterpreted the phrase quite seriously.

Why would you bring death camps in at all then? I feel like you're back peddling and trying to not act like you are.

Because death camps are the most notable feature of the Nazi regime.

This is circular. You had a bad take and that's that.

Yeah, you asked the same question and the answer has not changed. What do you expect? There's no bad take in saying that death camps are relevant to any discussion of Eichmann and the most notable feature of the Nazi regime. I genuinely don't understand what your issue is, your entire behavior here is inscrutable.

It's actually not a good take to suggest that in discussing Nazism you can invalidate someone's comparison by saying "but there are no death caps".

It's ridiculous really. It reduces such a broad systemic evil into a single point and makes drawing any parallels impossible because it's not 1941 in eastern Europe.
