Nazi Germany failed because they used a method that did not scale well. Also because they were trying to exterminate one set of humans while preserving another set. Exterminating all humans together is easier - perhaps flood the oceans with dimethylmercury - the geological-scale equivalent of curing cancer with a flamethrower. Or, just dig up all the fossil fuels and burn them. |

That is why eating too much Tuna will give you mercury poisoning. And the Nazis literally used nerve agents (Zyklon B) among other things. Nasty nerve agents (and most household pesticides) came out of WW2 research largely done by the Nazis (through Bayer, as it turns out).
And the moment anyone got wind of an attempt to try to do such a thing, enough humans would go to ground you’d never actually succeed. Hell, enough are probably already under ground for whatever reason you’d never succeed even if you did manage to catch the whole world by surprise and somehow actually release it all at scale.
The Nazi’s did not fail because they failed to try to kill humans at scale. Frankly, they did it at the largest scale since probably Ghenghis Khan. Certainly in a far more industrial fashion.
The issue is that it’s actually really hard to kill a lot of humans. Something that personally warms the cockles of my very human heart.
Embrace your ancestry of murderous (and loving) hominids, and aim to use it to make things better. Rejecting it is a false path.
