> many victims of the Holocaust were non-Jewish, and that the association of the Holocaust with "anti-Semitic" fails to represent all the other groups who were also targeted ... In our current political climate, those advocates are called antisemitic bigots and Holocaust deniers along with ISIS
> You're also called a bigot if you point out that most people conflate the total number of people who died in the Holocaust with the number of Jewish people who died in the Holocaust.
Can you substantiate this?
Maybe I'm just socially blind, but I've never seen or heard of anyone labeled a bigot just for citing statistics. I mean, the Wikipedia page on holocaust victims literally features a big ass pie chart with the demographic breakdown and nobody seems to be contesting it.

tbh I think you're just tossing red herrings around in the air
