When she said 'the holocaust' was more about man's inhumanity to man, Whoopi Goldberg was right.
However, there was a flood of adverse opinion, apparently by those who act before they think.
At times of war or national crisis, governing bodies motivate people by using their instincts and emotions.
Useful amongst these would be hate, superstition, and fear.
Such responses, and others, can be used to strengthen determination, or create a desired level of aggression towards another person.
Hitler used an existing tenuous antipathy towards a particular group.
He amplified this to engender loathing of this group?
He encouraged and ordered those around him to destroy its members.
He didn't do the killing himself, except for one isolated instance, which he used as a kind of demonstration?
The fact that otherwise peaceful persons can be motivated to kill and harm without good reason, is an example of them showing an inhumane approach to their fellow man.
The devastation was thus brought about by a group of ordinary citizens, motivated to behave in a totally inhumane and disgraceful manner.
So Whoopi was and is right: the instinct to harm was 'amplified' by those with control, and it did the trick.
So why the onslaught of contrary opinion by a multitude of persons?
Hasn't anyone, other than Whoopi, thought this through?
Another instance of such control was demonstrated in the leadup to the Falklands War.
It is also demonstrated by the fluidity of boundaries within, and adjacent to, europe.
The map changes almost daily, as groups push and shove to gain advantage.
They do this instead of living peacefully and productively.
Are they being motivated by unscrupulous persons, who seek personal gain?
Such persons demonstrate the effectiveness of using 'man's inhumanity to man' as a weapon.
