The abuse that happened in that building is awful, but stop comparing it to genocide you goofball

Yeah, you clearly lack context and understanding (or maybe just empathy for) the brutality and scope of american slavery, and I've tried about as much as I am willing to to help you understand. The fact that it was less, uh, concentrated to specific sites makes it no less horrific, and you seem to have some huge misconceptions regarding its scope. Good day to you.
