So you don't think there's a blind hatefest going on here towards jews?

.

Nope. There is some legitimate recognition of the role of Jews in certain past and current events, a couple of rabid haters, and that's about it.

.

The holocaust is just another lie.

I'm really not sure you equate rational analysis of the holocaust myth with ' hate'

the most beautiful woman I ever meet, with angelic energy rolling off her, was Jewish.

So, I've just shown that understanding the atrocity propaganda that is ' the holocaust'' Does not preclude positive feelings towards individual jews.

Your argument is false, and I could demonstrate it's absurdity by applying it anywhere.

I mean when it comes to how wide the consensus is that the holocaust happened, it's pretty fucking wide. So wide in fact, that you're basically walking the same line as flat earthers by being a holocaust deniers. And generally where this sentiment comes from or is based in, is extreme suspicion and paranoia regarding jews. You can find jewish girls attractive and still be paranoid as hell towards jews.

So are you a flat earther also?

A widespread belief doesn't define what is "truth". History is bursting with examples of commonly accepted truths ending up being eventually proven false. You will have to use a different methodology to prove your beliefs.

For sure. And i'm generally the type of person who is for questioning stuff and being skeptical. But we were talking about why i would equate holocaust denying with hating the jews. I'm saying there's generally an overlap between that tiny % of the population that is holocaust deniers and hating jews. And also people are usually uninclined to go against such widespread consensus out of fear of being outcast by society so it says a lot about you that you're willing to go against this consensus. Usually what that says is you have a pretty strong grudge against jews.

This isn't really my "department", but I'm familiar with the subject enough to have observed that most people don't dislike/hate for no reason at all. They have arrived at conclusions whether real or imagined. And that arrival has imbued them with a sense of contempt, and moral revulsion. Perhaps as it is with many things, the truth is somewhere in the middle.
