I think kids learn it in the home. I was raised with no exposure to any of these derogatory terms, Jew, n word ****, ****, mick, hunky, on and on. I didn't know what they meant when I heard kids at school or playmates use them.
We moved to the midwest when I was a teen, at school I heard a number of guys (not girls, only guys) use the word Jew in a derogatory way. I doubt any of them had ever met a Jew or knew what a Jew was, only that Henry Ford didn't like them. For whatever reason, probably no reason.
Learned at home and hearth.
That's a good point. I would like to think that most kids can think for themselves. Being subjected to that and actually going to school and encountering and not seeing the taught stereotype would mitigate that.

I am talking about quoting Hitler, praising Hitler, making veiled genocidal innuendos, etc.
Oh please do expound on that otherwise unsupported by fact allegation.
I would consider Ilhan Omar, AOC, and Talib as part of Biden's administration would not? No, you can't fix stupid, but the world Holocaust, Nazi, Hitler are often being touted around to the point where people are lessening the meaning behind it.

Uh, no.
What White House positions do they hold? They certainly aren't members of the current Cabinet.
That's as looney as saying Louie Gohmert or Madison Cawthorn were part of Trump's administration.

WHY? They were elected by the people of their states. WHAT positions do they hold in the administration?
And as far as the word holocaust losing its impact, how would you explain the word holodomor never having any despite it representing Stalin's murder of as many people as Hitler ever murdered? America's desire to hide the works of an 'ally' or something else?
Are they not working in unison with the current administration? Guilt by association.
"Working in unison" on what, specifically?
Even if true, that does not make them part of the administration.
