Hitler killed on the order of 6M people. This would be an order of magnitude worse, to put it into context.

Well the nazis killed way more than 6M people, that figure refers specifically to Jews in the Holocaust. In total it was way more people - but yes, 65M would be on a whole nother level

21m excess deaths directly attributable to Hitler's policies.

The Heritage Foundation wants to make that look like a joke. 258,000,000 deaths. Trump got 1m from COVID-19 alone.

No. The Holocaust was 6 million Jews. There were plenty more Slavs, Poles, gays, disabled (mentally and physically), political prisoners, etc. Hard to get numbers as everything you read is focused on Jews, which were indeed the majority.

With that vote yesterday there's estimates that they've already doubled that.
