"Everyone's so open and friendly" is a lie

Isn't that actually kinda insensitive to compare something fictional to horrible real life events?

Ugh, this response may get deleted, but we'll see.

Speaking of insensitivity, I feel like people can be too sensitive sometimes (on both sides). Like the comparison you mention. First of all, any serious comparison would fail because they are two different circumstances. But generally speaking, it seems to me the comparison is about treating a certain group of people as, not people, but a means for a so-called superior race of beings to thrive. In that sense, the comparison is valid.

But, of course, people don't like to be associated with real life public enemy, and so emotion and sensitivity comes into the mix. Fair enough, as I also think people who prefer Emet's side can and should defend their positions. It could make an interesting discussion, but we can't ignore the moral issue, so emotions would be there.
