Are you asserting people hate the Jews because they talk too much about the Holocaust?

If so, does any of that vitriol come from a sense of the Jews stealing victimhood that the “haters” wish to have for themselves?

I will reply just this once:

1. My paternal grandfather lost over half his family in concentration camps. The family members came mostly from northern Moldova, an area called Bukovina.

2. My father wore an armband with the Jewish star, went to a separate school just for Jews, and had to clean a warehouse in which there were human bodies hung on meat hooks.

3. My father's recollections were recorded and are now part of the large collection of recordings owned by the Holocaust Museum in DC. Go listen if you doubt!

I don't give a rat's a-- how many millions of people were killed. We're talking MILLIONS! Of people! All kinds of people. Gays, Catholics, gypsies, Jews, retarded people.

Don't throw the baby out with the bath water

You're proving his point if you're denying a widely-recognized distinction on account of other legitimately objectionable views he may hold

What does this have to do with the principal in the op peddling in falsehoods and displaying the also taboo subject of black hatred of Jews?

Dachau didn't have immediate selections for people to be sent to the gas chambers. Because Dachau never had operating gas chambers, as I recall. 


IIRC , the chambers were operable, and may have been "tested", but were not fully put into use.

However, there were over 30,000 documented deaths there, and their website says 41,000. I remember seeing the wall used by the firing squads and seeing the mass graves of those buried on site. It was pretty profound.

A big example of this are people who claim their grandfather liberated death camps.


This is just a lie. My UNCLE (not grandfather) liberated Dachau where over 40,000 people were killed. Why are you splitting hairs over what is, or what isn't, a "death camp?"

They must've been like the resorts set up in the Catskills and Poconos for Jewish people from New York City. Lovely in the fall and spring.

What I am trying to say is that there were camps built specifically to kill jews. Those were in Poland. 

Deaths happened in the Germany camps but the camps were not built for the purpose of mass extermination. 

Historians designate the differences between concentration camps and death camps for a reason.


I find the distinction to be crap.

One type of camp was much more efficient at killing people, the the other camps killed lots of people as well.

To call a camp where people were literally worked to death and"only" 60,000 people died a work camp is really kinda awful. In just about any other period of time a camp that killed that many people over that short of time are called death camps.

But because the Nazis had much more efficient death camps doesn't mean the first weren't. They were death camps. They just wanted to work you to death.

Oh wow. The one camp only killed 2000 people a month. So we will call that a work camp. Sounds kinda iffy to me.

The Nazis definitely made that distinction. But they all were death camps. Some were just much more efficient at it.

That's an emotional response IMO. Not an unreasonable one, to be fair.

But the fact remains that there is a historical reason to distinguish Dachau from Treblinka. Sure, Nazi sympathizers may have their reasons for downplaying concentration camps, but are we to believe the historians and academics that have long recognized the difference are somehow doing the same? I don't think so.

And it wasn't just that Dachau was less efficient at killing. Its purpose was, at least at some points during the Holocaust, quite different from Treblinka or Belzec.

I mean if you get caught lying I guess it makes up sense to double down.

For me, I think the 6 million figure for the death toll is exaggerated.


The historical data indicates that the 6 million number is impossible.

Something happened that was terrible but there are definitely details about what happened that are incorrect. Truth doesn't matter on these emotional triggering events.

To get back to the op, the principal wasn’t going for historical accuracy. He claimed that since some parents don’t believe the holocaust occurred, the school couldn’t teach it as fact. That’s an absurd position for the obvious anti Semite to take.

Ok AOC. I don't care what you call them, concentration, death or labor camps...they didn't go there for an education or leisure, they went there to die.


The AOC reference is ironic. This post screams about being morally right is more important than being factually right.

Yeah, what was terrible was what the globalist bolsheviks did in genociding 60 million.
