WH: No mention of Jews on Holocaust Remembrance Day because others were killed too

[Behind the Aegis]

33. It is how revisionism and propaganda work.

I have seen this type of minimization and a form of misdirection used when the Holocaust is discussed. Any discussion of Jews as victims must also include discussion about other groups. "Where are all the Holocaust films about other people?!" "Why is it always about the Jews?!" These are the questions which lead people down the path of "anti-Semitism wasn't a motivation which had taken root long before the war, long before the camps." These are nothing more than versions of "All Lives Matter"..."All Genocides Matter."

This particular version is making the Holocaust into a holocaust. While other groups were the target of Hitler's death factories, the Jews held a very "special" place, so much so, it was called "The Final Solution to the Jewish Question." It also allows people to place everyone into the same group. Some of those who were murdered were criminals and agitators against the state. Soon, there aren't "specific" groups, just "people" massacred, which turns to "criminals and agitators" killed, which turns to some died "during a conflict which claimed the lives of 60 million people worldwide."

It also allows "undesirable" groups from the present to not be mentioned, as exemplified in the actual article, given that GAYS and LESBIANS weren't mentioned, but the very fact GAY MEN got their own fucking triangle should have at least got a mention...but I digress, while demonstrating a point.

It doesn't help that there are those who decry this behavior while engaging in a similar form by immediately asking, "What's Bibi have to say?" Why the fuck when shit like this happens do some people feel the need to mention Israel or Israeli leaders (or some random group of Jews)? Well, the answer is almost the fucking same as to why these assholes left the Jews out of the equation, there are those who always feel the need to mention "bad Jews" anytime anti-Semitism is discussed, it ignores and/or minimizes anti-Semitism and the lives of Jews!

This isn't "forgetting the past", this is attempting to rewrite it!
