What? Of course you can, the entire Holocaust was about that. Unless "settler" in your mind is morally equivalent to "invader", even when they're third-generation German "settlers" in Brazil, a state that already existed for 200 years before the first-generation Germans even arrived.

Note that Germans in Brazil were not exterminated in any way. They were forced to assimilate during WW2, which is a form of genocide, but kept enough of their cultural identity that millions currently speak Riograndese Hunsrik, a German-Portuguese hybrid language.

newsflash, in the context of a European colony like Brazil, settler has always meant invader and that has never changed no matter how many generations into this cycle of violence we are.

comparing the Holocaust to a bunch of Germans willingly moving to South America is asinine. if anything, the indigenous people were the ones experiencing genocide at the hands of the German and Portuguese settlers.

sorry if I don't have much sympathy for white colonizers who called indigenous people animals and treated them like they're part of the local fauna to be eliminated and tamed to serve the white man.
