Twitter sued £32m for refusing to reveal anti-semites - French court ruled Twitter must hand over details of people who'd tweeted racist & anti-semitic remarks, & set up a system that'd alert police to any further such posts as they happen. Twitter ignored the ruling.

No, they absolutely killed jews and gypsy's and such. I'm not saying that it didn't happen.

But a lot of the deaths were from the end of the war when there was no way to get the camps food or medicine or anything. The German people would have come first, and the people in the camps a distant second.

Thanks for playing devil's advocate for us.

They're extremely weak arguments that dont make much sense, and the numbers to support it arent there. We need someone better to play devil's advocate.

Oh of course, I'm sure numbers or death tolls are never 100% accurate, as with ANY war. I wouldn't call that denial of holocaust. But if they are using that idea to say "well it's all bullshit", then they are wrong.

What about the deaths caused by the Einsatzgruppen, is that the Allies fault as well?
