Honestly the take "the fact that it happened in the 1930s shows that it's part of human nature and therefore it's fine to encourage it" blows my mind. Of course it's part of human nature. This realization is at the core of what "never again" means.

Humans have that potential. You can choose to either encourage people's worst instincts, exploit their fears and their ignorance and cultivate their hate, or you can choose to fight against it.

If you are in a position of immense influence (psychological control even) over hundreds of millions of people and you deliberately choose to do the former, for money, then you are absolutely evil. Period.
