I'm hesitant to undermine the substance of the report but when it's mentioned "Six out of 10 respondents in Texas could not name a single concentration camp or ghetto" my first thought was to ask what other facts might we be surprised to hear were unknown to the same group ? For more than half of that group to not know the name of any concentration is hardly ideal but if the same proportion of people were unable to give you a coherent summary of the events of the Second World War it's a lot less significant. By contrast the parts of the report which touch on "constructed facts" (e.g. "Jews caused the holocaust") are potentially more troubling. They too might be due to ignorance (Q: "Did the Jew cause the holocaust ?", A:"Errrh, Yes ?") but equally could be due to empty vessels being filled with something nasty.

I couldn't find the survey itself, neither at http://www.claimscon.org/news-media/publications/ http://www.claimscon.org/news-media/publications/ nor http://www.claimscon.org/news-media/ http://www.claimscon.org/news-media/ . Schoen Consulting doesn't trivially appear in a search. 69% for france, 58% for austria (millenial and gen Z respondents). Interestingly, the french and austrians both modally respond that there are "few" neo nazis in their countries, but "a great deal or many" in the US. The surveys were taken close to 27 January, so I hope those perceptions mostly reflect Charlottesville. 80% of respondents in all three countries thought it should be taught.

  This seems to be the survey summary - http://www.claimscon.org/millennial-study/ http://www.claimscon.org/millennial-study/ - with breakouts like http://www.claimscon.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/NO-WATERMARK-State-by-State-Executive-Summary-Millennial-US-Study-9.10.2020-EMBARGOED_added-language.pdf http://www.claimscon.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/NO-WATER... and per-state breakouts like http://www.claimscon.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Millennial-Holocaust-Survey-KANSAS-TOPLINE-8.11.20.pdf http://www.claimscon.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Millenni... which gives you the script (although nothing more than percentages for the responses.)
