39. The origin of the Holocaust graphic used in that OP is from the right wing.

This seems to be a Tea Party meme, adapted and photoshopped

I was puzzled by the 'over 6 million' figure, which would refer not to those persuaded by Hitler, but to the number of Jews killed in the Holocaust; the total number of Holocaust victims is around 11 million. I thought at first that it might be a misprint for 'over 60 million' which could be a very approximate figure for the population of Germany at that time.

But I then checked and found several places on the Internet where this is posted, all right-wing, and mostly illustrated, not by the Fox News logo, but by an arm tattooed with a concentration camp number. So this is definitely referring to the Jews, and is incredibly insulting however it is taken: 'The Jews only got killed because they let themselves be duped'/ 'A relatively limited form of public healthcare, at least if established by a black president, is exactly the same thing as mass extermination'/ 'All human disasters including the Holocaust are caused by gun control'/ all of the above.

Pretty ugly stuff; ironically an example of the sort of vicious propaganda that can be used by extremists.

And DUer after DUer has been duped by it, starting with the DUer who posted it in his OP - no doubt in total ignorance of its actual vile message.
