I don't think any historical evidence exists. People are talking about millions of people but I'm not sure you have ever seen one million people at one place.

There's plenty of historical evidence, some of it described in the links I posted above.

  Links were not invented during early 1900s. Show me some concentration camps, death camps etc. killing 1 million people is not easy and I'm almost sure that you have never seen 1 million people at any place at any time given. So, there is no evidence.

    All you have to do to see evidence is to read the links I posted above. Btw, the consistent denial of genoicde has now borne fruit and Turkiye is again accused of participating in a modern genocide, that of the Yazidi people: https://www.theguardian.com/law/2022/jul/05/turkey-should-face-international-court-over-yazidi-genocide-report-says-helena-kennedy https://www.theguardian.com/law/2022/jul/05/turkey-should-fa... This is what happens when you deny history.

This is what happens when you deny history. I disagree. I'm not sure you know how Wikipedia works. Unfortunately, it is not a reliable source.

      The Armenian Genocide really happened and there is strong historical evidence for it. See the links I posted above. I wonder for how long you are going to continue denying it. My guess is we'll be here for a few more months, or even years. That should be really interesting to watch.

        You also perpetuated a hellish nationalistic flamewar in this thread. I know how easy it is to get provoked by provocative comments, but it's totally unacceptable and against the site guidelines for people who disagree to keep going at each other like this—regardless of how wrong the other person is or you feel it is. I'm not going to ban you because you don't have a history of doing this and you make good contributions in other areas. But for heaven's sake please don't do it again. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html (In case anyone's worried about bias, the reason for banning one account and not another has nothing to do with which side of a flamewar they were on. It's because of the history of the two accounts, not just in this thread but in other threads, and previous warnings.)
