This is a perfect example of when I think freedom of speech restrictions (such as laws criminalizing Holocaust denial) are a net positive.
My grandparents were holocaust survivors, so I know directly from them what they went through, and I know about my family members who were killed.
I have no sympathy for people who publicly spread lies and misinformation to deny or downplay the severity of any genocide.
Sorry not sorry.

Of course you think that, because you don't want to have an objective conversation about the events that took place, you want a single narrative to prevail unquestioningly. > My grandparents were holocaust survivors, so I know directly from them what they went through, and I know about my family members who were killed. I'm sure they were. Just like I'm sure the number of survivors keeps increasing as the years go on. Wild how that happens. > I have no sympathy for people who publicly spread lies and misinformation to deny or downplay the severity of any genocide. Convenient when you can brush off what Israel is doing by claiming it's not a genocide. > Sorry not sorry. I typically don't expect pathological liars and pathological victims to be sorry about much.
