@VVolf that was a surprisingly politically-charged comment. I hope you plan on making significant logistical and moral improvements to the model provided by 1940's Germany before you again present it as a viable option. After all, "those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it."
In Israel it's very common to tell Holocaust jokes... like... none-stop (only if you are Jewish yourself though). Sometimes non-Jews wander why the hell we like those jokes so much. I tell them that we, as Jewish people, simply think that the Nazi plan to kill all Jews is hilarious, silly, idiotic and of course- very very Nazi. When we tell Holocaust or Hitler jokes its totally not because of any antisemitic interests but because we find the Nazis as total idiots with too much power in their hands. Once I went to an elementary school and they told the kids about the idea of the Holocaust (to kill all Jews on the planet) and the kids said: "They are like idiotic sheep with no brain that do silly things because they have nothing better to do"- I think that reflects very much why we tell so many Holocaust jokes.
