Holocaust denialism does not constitute "research."
- baddox 11y agoDenying any claim, however small, about the Holocaust is not "Holocaust denial" in the sense you're using the term.
- pekk 11y agoNeither is it true that "any claim, however small, about the Holocaust" is "a research no-go-zone where only the officially sanctioned results are allowed to be published and people can go to prison in many European countries for making false or unpopular claims"
- baddox 11y agoI did not claim and do not believe that those two claims are equivalent.
- Asbostos 11y agoThe German law says so. Perhaps they don't enforce it much but it's still the law: " Whosoever publicly or in a meeting approves of, denies or downplays an act committed under the rule of National Socialism of the kind indicated in section 6 (1) of the Code of International Criminal Law, in a manner capable of disturbing the public peace shall be liable to imprisonment not exceeding five years or a fine."
