A) Your argument that the Holocaust might not have happened could be applied to any historic event. Moon landings included. Saying it didn't happen because you've figured out a way that it could have been faked is pointless, since it amounts to an unfalsifiable negative. B) Occam's razor applies. Conspiracy to fake the Holocoust is invariably more complex than it would have been for an openly racist & facist regime to have done it. C) You would need an alternative explanation for 6 million missing persons, 2 million refugees and all those abandoned swiss bank accounts. Again Occam's razor. Vaccination is a more about what a person believes, and the individual circumstances (like primi's, genetic history, and living environment)

There are several people who believe the moon landings never happened. Just what I said - there are always people claiming the exact opposite from the official version. And it is not always obvious to tell who is right. There are actually cases where several hundred years of history have been faked, so it is not that out there to consider such things. "You would need an alternative explanation for 6 million missing persons, 2 million refugees and all those abandoned swiss bank accounts. Again Occam's razor." The numbers don't seem so clear (how to confirm them?), that is what I mean by the missing traces. Supposedly the archives with papers (for example from the red cross) are still not open to the public. Not that I want to make that argument, but it is one of the arguments of the revisionists: if the nazis supposedly were so efficient and bureaucratic, how come there are (supposedly) no documents about the missing persons? (Really, I just want to give an example of the kind of arguments - I have not tried to find the archives by myself, so I don't know enough to comment). It seems the only choice is to either A) just belive the public version or B) dig through archives by oneself, which would be a huge investment of resources.

  Or C) Go to the places where it happened and D) Talk to the people still alive that went through it, or E) Go to the museums and look at the massive pile of artifacts. A conspiracy in which there where hundreds of thousands of witnesses, with thousands still alive today, millions of artifacts spread around a dozen museums worldwide and multiple sites left in Europe would be so vast it would make the Truman Show look easy to pull off.

    I did C and E and of course lots and lots of incredibly horrible things happened. I have not seen millions of artifacts, though - that would be impossible. The museums are just emotional "pieces of art" in my opinion. They help me to learn something about the nature of humans.
