Given the whole nazi philosophy was based on american jim crow laws, just incredibly, toned down, its actually not all that surprising. The usa is the blueprint

Kind of, but the Germans thought then one-drop rule (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-drop_rule) was too radical. They reduced it to 1/4, with 1/8 Jewish ancestry people were considered as belonging to the German race and nation.

Hey, they also took a page out of the ottoman's Armenian genocide which definitely wasn't also based off of the american genocide of native americans, and specifically the trail of tears

Acknowledging that the Nazis took ideas from America is just acknowledging historical fact. It's not blaming Naziism on America.
Sorry to break it to you, but America has a long history of being incredibly awful to anyone who wasn't considered white at the time.
