          It was an accident the same way that arranging an orgy, renting a space for said orgy, hosting said orgy, advertising said orgy, inviting people to said orgy, hiring people to organize said orgy, supplying said orgy, and participating in said orgy until you got caught by your wife naked in a pile of bodies was accidentally cheating. Oopsy.

    Here’s Darryl Cooper, obvious Nazi, lying to justify the Holocaust, unedited so nobody can accuse me of bias:

    You know, Germany, look, they put themselves into a position in Adolf Hitler’s chiefly responsible for this, but his whole regime is responsible for it, that when they went into the east in 1941, they launched a war where they were completely unprepared to deal with the millions and millions of prisoners of war, of local political prisoners, and so forth that they were going to have to handle. They went in with no plan for that and they just threw these people into camps. And millions of people ended up dead there. You know, you have, you have like letters as early as July, August 1941 from commandants of these makeshift camps that they’re setting up for these millions of people who were surrendering or people they’re rounding up and they’re- so it’s two months after, a month or two after Barbarossa was launched, and they’re writing back to the high command in Berlin saying, “We can’t feed these people, we don’t have the food to feed these people.” And one of them actually says ‘Rather than wait for them all to slowly starve this winter, wouldn’t it be more humane to just finish them off quickly now?"

    That’s Darryl “the Holocaust was Humane” Cooper, ladies and gentlemen.

          I mean. Prisoners of war rarely committed any actual crimes right? And I can definitely imagine the Nazis using that term in official documents. Would be stupid otherwise. I think there is a book, the bureaucracy of murder, that talks about those euphemismic language in brutal states. I can also imagine some officers in those camps actually being concerned with feeding the people (or handling the other prisoners watching their comrades die of hunger), just not out of empathy. And finally, it’s just really stupid to take those letters and make a case for the Holocaust being an accident, wtf.

      From an essay about Auschwitz, written by [Rudolf Höss,] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolf_Höss?wprov=sfla1) the commandant of Auschwitz, written after his capture:

      "I myself never knew the total number, and I have nothing to help me arrive at an estimate.

      I can only remember the figures involved in the larger actions, which were repeated to me by Eichmann or his deputies.

      From Upper Silesia and the General Gouvernement 250,000

      Germany and Theresienstadt 100,000

      Holland 95,000

      Belgium 20,000

      France 110,000

      Greece 65,000

      Hungary 400,000

      Slovakia 90,000 [Total 1,130,000]

      I can no longer remember the figures for the smaller actions, but they were insignificant by comparison with the numbers given above. I regard a total of 2.5 million as far too high. Even Auschwitz had limits to its destructive capabilities."

      Even THE FUCKING COMMANDANT OF AUSCHWITZ, writing no doubt in his own defense while awaiting trial, basically said “Oh, I couldn’t have possibly murdered more than 1.13 million people at my personal death factory!”

      What a Nazi fucking prick. Both of them.

That’ll need quite a bit of justification since I don’t think there is any way to justify that position. Then I read the second half and realized they are using “historian” to give that neo-nazi a bit of credibility while they do a bit of holocaust denial.

    If he was a historian, he would not be so quick to put the label “villain” but instead form a sentence that describes his actions and then say something like “which is why I personally consider him a villain”.

    Historians don’t lead with the labels, they talk about events and facts and then once it’s clear, they suggest an opinion.

      Most deniers try to wrap it up in a bow. It’s often “there was a disease outbreak they were trying to control”, or “the death toll isn’t nearly as bad as the official story”, or “it would have been dumb for the Nazis to spend so many resources when they were losing the war”, or “Auschwitz had a swimming pool”. They rarely come right out and say it didn’t happen.

      It all has the same goal: make the holocaust not seem so bad so they can implement the same policies.

        I mean, starting the war in the first place was pretty stupid, as were a great many of their other decisions. It’s not like Nazis are, were, or ever will be rational actors. So wasting resources on genocide in the middle of a war they were losing was very much in-character.
