This is the most clear example of Heidegger's defence in terms of "a pile of bodies": the genocide of the Jews and Nazism are lost as a drop in the sea of all Western forgetting of Being. At the same time the passage is a good crystallisation of his view on technology, according to which the modern understanding of Being is characterised by the fact that it encounters everything as a resource to be manipulated, as raw material for work.
