The Nazis ran industrialized death camps. Concentration camps are horrific, but their purpose is mass imprisonment, not mass murder. There's a reason that the Nazis are remembered with especial horror, and it's not inferior PR.

    So the trail of tears was less of a tragedy because it wasn't industrialized?

    Industrialized death camps are an exceptionally bad form of ethnic cleansing, which, itself, is always bad, yes. I don't know why that's suddenly controversial.

    Like saying that being crucified is a worse way to be executed than hanged. It should be evident that both are bad, and yet one is worse.
