And a bonus Sodo lino print with high pressure technique✌️✨️

I can’t even begin to process who thought that was an acceptable choice. 

What kind of sick, disgusting person chooses one of the deadliest genocides in human history and decides to use that as a name for a comic character. How did someone sit around the table in the writers room and say, “We need another character for this fight scene. How about Holocaust? Oh, and they can have fire powers, just like the furnaces that the Nazis used to burn the dead and still-living bodies of the millions of Jews imprisoned in the concentration camps.” How did any of the writers hear that and not instantly be horrified and disgusted at the mere suggestion? 

The Holocaust was the largest organized ethnic cleansing in history. It is a horrific event that needs to be remembered and revered so that it may never happen again, to any group of people.

It is not a cheap gimmick. It is not acceptable to use the name in this way. The fact that this character was put onto the show is an act of antisemitism and it is truly horrifying that nobody stopped it from happening. Bad enough that the character was created in the first place, but to choose to use him out of the literal thousands of existing characters that DC has ever created?  Since moving to the DC streaming service, Young Justice has pushed past the boundaries set by Cartoon Network and they have gone too far. There has to be some kind of limits because they have seriously gone too far. When POC characters are mutilated or killed it is shown in gruesome detail on screen, while the same thing only happens to white characters off screen.
