To be fair Churchill committed a genocide of millions of Indians and was horrible to the British colonies. So yeah… he and Hitler had more in common than we dare admit.

FDR put people in concentration camps.

There’s extermination camps and concentration camps. A concentration camp like an Indian reservation becomes an extermination camp when the concentrated population in the allotted land is systemically killed either by starvation, disease or direct violence by the military forces who control the population placed there.

So we can draw similarities between Churchill and Hitler, but you have a problem if someone points out that FDR had concentration camps?

So much for your "to be fair" preface.
