2. Denial becoming "mainstream"

Many have seen this coming for awhile. While outright denialism is frowned upon and repudiated, something more insidious lurks about and that is Holocaust minimalization. It has been more and more used in the past few decades by supposedly enlightened people. I am not taking about updating as more information becomes available, I am talking about those who manipulate information to rewrite the history, while not denying it. There is a strong inclination among some to dissociate the Jews from the Holocaust, or make them "background characters" in the event.
