I'm curious, how many Jews do you think were killed in the holocaust, and what do you base this on? This is the primary sticking point I have with the "official" narrative.

how many Jews do you think were killed in the holocaust, and what do you base this on?

Why does it matter? The only time I get the exact number debate being brought up is from Holocaust deniers trying to split hairs. I was probably told the number by my history teacher or history textbook at one point or another, along with the total casualties of WW2, and the deaths caused by the bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, along with a bunch of other facts and figures I memorized once for a test and promptly forgot about.

The point was, there was a pointed effort from the Nazi government to commit genocide against the Jewish people, as evidenced by policies, propaganda, and actions of the Nazi government at the time. There are sites of concentration camps, gas chambers, hundreds or thousands of photos of the corpses and survivors, as well as testimonies of people who avoided, escaped, or survived the ordeal and the people who carried out the act. Most of the Jewish people killed were not the Jewish people trying to destroy the German economy, if such a people ever existed. The German economy was suffering due to being forced to pay reparations as a result of losing WW1.

This is the primary sticking point I have with the "official" narrative

Do you also go through the casualties of every battle, every bombing to determine if they really happened? Do you think the atomic bomb was really dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Did Japan really attack pearl harbor? Did the Canadians really fight the battle of Vimy Ridge? Do you know the exact, undisputed death tolls of those events? Why are you hyper focused on this particular number and why does it matter so much?

    if you want to investigate it or question any of the fake dogma about it, like the body count, you'll be demonized and face legal persecution in some western countries.

    How are you investigating? I don't think anyone is going to persecute you for going to the library.

    Funny how it's also the 1 event in history that they never teach you any of the real motivations behind it

    They did teach the real motivations behind it. German economy was suffering from the fallout of WW1 and the Nazi regime used the Jewish people as a scapegoat.

    If you don't believe it, why don't you tell me what you think happened instead of being vague about conspiracy nonsense?

      Your attempt to deflect the truth of what I stated failed. I don't think you're naive and ignorant about what happens to people who question any of the Holocaust-religion propaganda. Even questioning the "6 million" body count, like I said, will cause that person to be vilified and crucified institutionally.

      Questioning how? Like that other guy who said the gas chambers were de-lousing equipment, against almost all testimonies from every side? There's "questioning" then there's spewing pure bullshit in the face of facts end evidence. People died and lost loved ones in these events, I don't blame them for being sensitive. There's a way to go about "questioning" and "investigating" without being inflammatory. There are lots of documents on the event, and some of the sites are open to visitors if you want to take a trip. Some of the people who witnessed the events are still alive, and may be open to being interviewed if you're polite about it. But "did it reeeeeally happen?" is not good faith. Commenting "did six million people rly die tho?" on reddit is not constructive. Being an unhelpful ass is going to get you backlash.

      History repeats itself today with similarities because the roles of Jewish leftist-commies (serving globalists, not their own fellow nations) and lying in the mainstream media and normalizing hatred of the host culture ("white man bad!") have been happening in the US for 100 years, but it's hit a peak in the present.

      My guy, I'll tell you what, I went to a primarily immigrant school as a kid and there weren't any Jewish students there (they went to the predominantly white school on the other side of town). I wasn't even aware Jewish people were still around until my late teens; I figured they all died in the Holocaust. To my untrained eye, there were no difference between them and non-Jewish white people. I say all this to tell you that there are plenty of reasons for people to dislike white men besides "Jewish leftist-commie" meddling. I'm sorry dude, but you can't blame this one on "the Jews". A lot of people are still salty about the trans-Atlantic slavery, white European colonialism, and subsequent events. Maybe try addressing some of that instead if you want to "break the cycle"?

        Why aren't Central and South America taught to hate themselves and dwell in guilt and shame and have that be their identity, like Jewish media tells white people to do in the US?

        lol, wow. You know nobody really wants white people to "hate themselves and dwell in guilt and shame", right? It's a normal reaction when you've done something wrong (means you're not a psychopath), but most people who were wronged don't care how bad white people feel about the bad things they did, because most people don't care about other people's feelings. My god, dude, this is some serious mental gymnastics to avoid feeling bad about something when nobody actually gives a shit about your feelings. That's kinda equal parts tragic and pathetic. Bad shit was done by white people in recent history, accept it, get over yourself and move the fuck on.

          100% wrong. You're ignorant. There are entire industries, such as mainstream media, populated by people who have a pathological hatred of white people and use every opportunity and platform to increase their anti-white ideology.

          Not what I said. I said non-white people don't really want white people to feel bad, because non-white people don't really give a fuck about white feelings. Hating white people and wanting white people to feel bad are two different things. Separate them first.

          This is primarily why when a black person gets killed by a white person, it's national news for weeks or months or years and used to excuse increasing hatred of white people - even though the interracial white-black crimes are literally over 90% blacks victimizing whites.

          First of all, not all crimes are homicides. Most crimes are shit like theft. Now if we're talking homicides, the majority of homicides are intra-racial. It makes sense because most people socialize within their racial demographic, and most people kill people they know for personal reasons like vengeance or anger or whatever. For crimes, poor people tend to commit more crimes, and black people are over represented in low income demographics due to the oppression and marginalization they have experienced in America. So no, I don't think some crazy white guy gunning down a black jogger is comparable to some dude who happens to be white getting his car stolen by a poor career criminal who happens to be black. For one, the latter happens more frequently and doesn't have anything to do with race. Yeah it sucks to lose your car, but that's not national news material.

          History is replete with terrible stuff. Sooooo much of it is regrettable. Do I feel guilty for it? Fuck no. I had nothing to do with it. Plus I have got enough stuff I've actually done to regret. And I'm trying to make the world a better place by trying to fix some things I see wrong.

          Are you killing people in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Yemen, etc? Your government is. Does that make you guilty by association and privilege? You didn't start that war, you aren't guilty of the crimes there, but you can try to stop it.

          We all have our own burdens and roles without adding manufactured bogus burdens.

            Like that other guy who said the gas chambers were de-lousing equipment, against almost all testimonies from every side?

            Actually NOT against almost all testimonies from every side?

            There's no shortage of evidence, scientists, etc. that have testified that the "gas chambers" thing is an exaggerated myth. Beyond being impossibly impractical as a killing mechanism, there's no evidence of any massive clean up process. It would be terribly inefficient. If you watch the Spinning Squirrel (Holocaust skepticism) documentary then you can also listen to the other two videos and learn more about the fabrications.

            The "6 million" number was a magic figure from the 1800s, documented. It's the foundation for the "Holocaust religion". Read the links I gave you, including the 14 points. Holocaust math is literally impossible.

            You should know that "indentured servitude" is a fancy term for slavery. There was no shortage of white slaves in North America for centuries - from the Puritans all the way up to the Irish. This is another inconvenient truth that's hard for propagandized folks to swallow. Further, the US Civil War of Northern Aggression was NOT about freeing the slaves. Slavery is now illegal in the USA, except for in prisons. Now that's something to rage about.

            There's no shortage of evidence, scientists, etc. that have testified

            The vast, vast majority of "evidence, scientists, etc" have agreed on the history of the gas chambers. You're never going to get 100% consensus on anything.

            No it isn't hard for me to swallow. White indentured servants were given the option of earning their freedom through work. The majority of them were not dehumanized and treated as chattel the way black slaves were. Moreover, if this matter is so close to your heart, why don't you go find the descendants of white slaves and try to get them their reparations from the descendants of their white masters? If you think it's so unfair, go right the wrong that was white indentured servitude, don't use it as an excuse for the mistreatment of another demographic.

            [–]JasonCarswell 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

            The vast, vast majority of agreeable scientists have not actually researched it and they depend upon the academia and corporate funding for their further employment. Going against the grain is NOT in their interests.

            " You're never going to get 100% consensus on anything. "

            And a majority thinking they're right doesn't make it correct. That's argument is used with the Climate Change Scam. Science is never settled and pretending it is blind faith scientism dogma.

            " White indentured servants were given the option of earning their freedom through work. "

            LOL. That's no option, especially when their "boss" has the liberty to change the terms.

            " if this matter is so close to your heart... "

            I don't care about reparations for history's atrocities. I care about truth-seeking and making a progressive difference that is fair for the future. Reparations won't solve the most fundamental critical problems. Illuminating those problems and the lies that surround them that prop them up is more important, IMO. The entire establishment is rigged as fuck and NOTHING will be fair until the corruptions are routed out.

            I don't want to give more power to one group or another. I want an even and fair playing field for everyone.

            Why did it matter that the death toll of Dresden might have just been 35,000 instead of 250,000? Why did it matter the death toll of the Holodomor might have been 5.5 million instead of 12 million? Why did it matter the death toll at Auschwitz was only 1.1 million instead of 4.5 million? Why does it matter if the 6 million number is a gross exaggeration as well? Because the truth matters, especially on events given such historical prominence that are continually cited to justify views today.

            It's constant. I dont have examples bookmarked. But I just googled "6 million" and right off the bat current events news stories popped up about it. The Israelis cite it all the fucking time to justify their hyper aggression. Antifa like to frequently cite the holocaust as justification for beating, threatening, attacking and shutting down anyone they can label fascists or nazis, which is usually everyone to the right of Mao, and antifa are protected by and even promoted by the media and courts because of the Jewish elites paranoia that populism might lead to another Holocaust. I cant even keep track of how many articles I've read since Trump was elected drawing parallels between him and Hitler that inevitably invoke the holocaust. Its this cloud that hangs over everything because of Jewish media dominance.

            On reddit lefty jews have been perpetually screetching about how "the right" are forgetting the "lessons" of the holocaust. I remember a few claiming they still do something every night to remember the victims. When I asked if they do the same for the holodomor or the other 70 million plus victims of ww2 they got offended at the very idea.

            It's constantly being used to bludgeon European populists and nationalism movements. You still have European countries paying reparations to "survivors", which apparently means any Jew that lived in a Nazi occupied country or that fled before it became one, and can include their descendants even. There was even a study that found Jews were actually giving their children PTSD by talking about it so much. Meanwhile no one even cares that not a single person was ever tried for anything that happened during the holodomor.

            On twitter recently the term "jewish privilege" was trending because some black dude accused Jews of having it(welcome to the party), so they all dragged out images of the holocaust, because apparently the fact someone of the same religion as you suffered 80 years ago means you cant be privileged today.

            The number is a lie.

            We've been lied to all our lives on countless events and matters. This is no different.

            The Holocaust was not popularized in mainstream media until the 1970s.

            Both sides had concentration camps. Gas chambers were for delousing clothing in a typhus epidemic. Yes people were starving - it was war. Even the German soldiers were starving - they fled and weren't in the photos. With the hundreds of typhus victims the British bulldozers are often passed off as German.

            Not according to the survivors of the camp, the operators of the camp, the Nazi regime and the American and Soviet soldiers. You know, the people who were actually there.

            The survivors are well paid to lie. The winners (Americans and Russians) get to write their winner history as they see fit.

            Why are no other survivors of WWII well paid? ie. Japanese people who had their things stolen and sent to concentration camps in the USA and Canada? Survivors of the Dresden Fire Bombing? More Germans were mass murdered AFTER WWII than during it - yet many survived, obviously - and got no reparations.

            Jewish supremacy includes a special type of victimhood - and a new ethnostate, Israel, stolen from the Palestinians.

            Evidence of this? Who paid them? How much were they paid? What did they do with the money??

            Why were no other survivors of WWII well paid?

            No one was paid. But Allies put effort into rebuilding Germany and Japan to ensure that the events and economic strain that led up to WW2 do not repeat itself. America gained a lot of economic benefits from the process of rebuilding as well. Even now, there are American military bases in Germany and Japan.

            I don't take credit for this, but is a prescient observation:

            Rivka Yosselevska and Ellie Wiesel claimed that they witnessed geysers of Jewish blood. Rose Toren claimed that she escaped a Gestapo massacre by falling asleep. Yanina Cywinska claimed that "Nazis" created bags of Jewish skin while they bathed with soap made out of Jewish bones.

            Judith Perlaki claimed that the "Nazis" tied together the legs of Jews to prevent them from giving birth to children. Joshua Kaufman claimed that the “Nazis” were throwing Jews into cement mixers.

            Paul Waldmann claimed that the “Nazis” murdered Jews with incredible pedal-driven brain-bashing machines. Some more amazing testimonials are for example: musical Nazi camp dogs ripping Jews who played false in the orchestras to death, Jews who were pumped to death with water....

            ...gay people who were tickled to death, instant kill of 20,000 Jews with atomic bombs, rollercoasters that propelled Jews directly into the ovens, but perhaps the most amazing: the electrical masturbating machines that killed Jews by "masturbating them to death".

            Do you believe in these outstanding stories above? If your answer is yes, then why doesn’t even a semi-serious historian share your belief in these stories anymore? If the answer is no, congratulations – you are now an official holocaust denier.

            – and why, then, would we believe in the notion of homicidal death chambers? Why reject one absurdity and accept another?

            Holocaust denial: the radical notion that those who lied about human soap, lampshades, shrunken heads, electric floors, rollercoasters of death, masturbation machines, anus gas pumps and the peddle-driven brain-bashing machine aren’t telling the truth about death showers.

            why, then, would we believe in the notion of homicidal death chambers? Why reject one absurdity and accept another?

            Because there were physical evidence of the gas chambers? Multiple accounts from both sides of their operation? Photographs of the location and the corpses? My mom lied about Santa Claus but I believe her when she says "dinner's ready", especially if I can hear her cook in the kitchen and smell the food.

            "Denier" is used for propaganda because it's so much harsher than "skeptic" and can easily be countered when dealing with only exaggerations. (ie. So you deny that anyone died in a concentration camp?)

              After WWII Germany was NOT FREE but controlled by Britain, Russia, and the USA who got to rewrite history. They also defined the terms of surrender and compensation.

              Germany did not choose to pay the Jewish work camp slaves - they were forced to.

              https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_II_reparations#Holocaust_victims

              " Germany concluded a variety of treaties with Western and Eastern countries as well as the Jewish Claims Conference and the World Jewish Congress to compensate the victims of the Holocaust. Until 2005 about 63 billion euros have been paid to individuals. Additional payments by German companies which exploited forced workers have been made. "

              63 Fucking BILLION Euros

              Holocaust victimhood is BIG BUSINESS.

              Don't know for sure. I can point you to other's estimations, though. Standard breakpoints are 1.5,2,3,3.5,4,4.5,5.5,6 million. Let's pick 4? Like I said, I'm not a historian and I didn't live through it. Not sure the relevance though.

              Well I dont know what the actual number was either, and the person who said why does it matter does have a point in that it was horrible and shouldnt have happened regardless of whether it was 2, 4 6 or whatever. But a lot of things happened during ww2 that shouldnt have happened, and there's plenty of blame to go around for that. It wasnt as clear cut as good guys vs evil guys, and I say that as someone whose grandfathers fought for the "good guys". Including one who fought from France to Germany as an infantryman. During the 60s and 70s there was a bit of a reappraisal of what happened in the war, led by authors like Kurt Vonnegut that painted a more complicated picture. Since then we've regressed back to a simplistic Hollywood jingoistic view of the war with cartoon like villains vs heroes. Its been done for political reasons and its sad, because the truth matters, especially if you truly want to know WHY things happened the way they did.
