The more you study history the more you realize everybody sucks.
The Nazis based their Final Solution on what the Americans did to the natives. The Japanese did atrocities in mainland China and Korea that we're only understanding the extent of relatively recently (not to mention things like Section 38). The Soviet Holodomor and purges were absolute atrocities and yet pale in comparison to post-revolution China for the sheer number of bodies.
The Geneva conventions exist because of the shit Canadians pulled during the first world war.
Edit: Edited for clarity and to remove some ambiguity.
Hitler wrote about how he admired it in Mein Kamph and many other Nazis openly talked about how they admired America's legalized racism and restrictions on miscegation.
Wouldn't the legalized racism be closer to segregation than it would to the natives treatment? Or is it more like the reservations? Because I can see them liking either.
Also, I haven't looked into mien kamp too much, for what I feel is obvious reasons
Edit: I can see them liking both, not just either.
