If you treat such events as relative then you end up with conclusions such as
"It is better to have 1 million people massacred than it is to have 2 million
people massacred".
I don't like that line of reasoning. It's crazy to tell one victim that he is better
off than another victim because his massacre wasn't as bad as another.

I struggle to find better words.
