Not to say it wasn't horrible, but, he isn't wrong. Millions of the numbers were inflated and have been admittedly pumped up.

As a student of history we have to understand even the parts we don't like. America is heading down the very dangerous path of democide right now.

“GENOCIDE IS A PROCESS THAT DEVELOPS IN TEN STAGES THAT ARE PREDICTABLE BUT NOT INEXORABLE. AT EACH STAGE, PREVENTIVE MEASURES CAN STOP IT. THE PROCESS IS NOT LINEAR. STAGES MAY OCCUR SIMULTANEOUSLY. EACH STAGE IS ITSELF A PROCESS. LOGICALLY, LATER STAGES ARE PRECEDED BY EARLIER STAGES.  BUT ALL STAGES CONTINUE TO OPERATE THROUGHOUT THE PROCESS.” – DR GREGORY H. STANTON

The ten stages of genocide

  1. Classification: Groups in a position of power will categorize people according to ethnicity, race, religion or nationality employing an us versus them mentality.

  2. Symbolisation: People are identified as Jews, Roma or Tutsis, etc., and made to stand out from others with certain colours or symbolic articles of clothing.

  3. Discrimination: A dominant group uses laws, customs, and political power to deny the rights of other groups. The powerless group may not be granted full civil rights or even citizenship.

  4. Dehumanization: The diminished value of the discriminated group is communicated through propaganda. Parallels are drawn with animals, insects or diseases.

  5. Orginization: A state, its army or militia design genocidal killing plans.

  6. Polarisation: Propaganda is employed to amplify the differences between groups. Interactions between groups are prohibited, and the moderate members of the group in power are killed.

  7. Preparation: The victims are identified, separated and forced to wear symbols. Deportations, isolation and forcible starvation. Death lists are drawn up.

  8. Persecution: Victims are identified and isolated based on their ethnic or religious identity. Death lists are drawn up. In state sponsored genocides, members of victim groups may be forced to wear identifying symbols. Their property is often expropriated.

  9. Extermination: The massacres begin. The perpetrators see their actions as “extermination” since they do not consider their victims to be entirely human.

  10. Denial: The perpetrators of the genocide deny having committed their crimes. Victims are often blamed. Evidence is hidden and witnesses are intimidated.

The holocaust is one of the most widely documented genocides in history. Denial of this fact is being guilty of your own ignorance.

Large scale gas chambers are a lie. The holocaust as we are taught it is largely a lie. Mass numbers of undesirables including Jews were unjustly murdered and persecuted - the narrative has been built out of these grains of truth. The real history is almost equally shocking and shameful, but less politically useful.

Ok cool dude that's a great story but I've literally seen the mass grave sites with my own eyes. Take your bullshit somewhere else. You have no sources and no info to back up what you're saying. Supply me with some real evidence or go back to your cuckold station giving "sources" at NBC.
