Absolutely yes, this is why the rhetoric regarding deportation is so hugely disturbing, and requires such serious responses from those of us who support immigrants, people of color, refugees, LGBTQ people, and others such as Jewish people who are targeted by such people. The Nazis began with attempting to get Jews to leave Germany. They did this in various ways from 1933 until the war began in 1939. The extermination phase of the Holocaust began in 1941 (not to say Jews and others weren't killed before that, and concentration camps did exist before that, however death camps and organized, extremely large mass shootings only started in 1941). Even the Madagascar Plan (the idea of deporting all Jews to Madagascar) was considered, though how seriously isn't known. There are also important discrepancies between the Nazis stated goal in the 1930s of getting Jews to emigrate, and the ways they made it significantly harder for Jews to leave. The Nazis (and neo-nazis today) justified their genocide by saying they tried to get Jews to leave, and when they wouldn't they had to be killed. This is of course a facetious argument, and depends upon extreme antisemitism, but knowing about this argument is super important today so you can notice neo-fascists
