But you asserted it's why we stopped. So your logic is we were okay with experimenting on black slaves, aborigines, natives, etc, but it was the nazis that made up stop? Even though we recruited these nazi scientists after ww2 and even though we continued with unethical human experimentation after ww2?
Why not admit you were wrong and just move on?

We are still carrying out human experimentation on poor people - especially in africa and india. In case you were wondering.

Assume good faith." That's precisely what I did and apparently that was my mistake. Hope you learned something at least.
