Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

So I said:
And you link about less than a million deaths...
Do you think 1 out of 17 million is a majority?
Then there's a big rant about other stuff you didn't understand...
But I won't get to that, one thing at a time because it's concerning we're going in the wrong way.
6/17 isn't bigger than half, and 1/17 is a lot less than half, you need the top number to get bigger
The fact you're comparing the fractional proportions of millions of lives, and completely dismissing all of the dehumanizing actions that were taken against all 17 million killed, is disgusting and speaks magnitudes to your Holocaust denialism.
You're a disgusting human being, and I hope someday you truly understand that.
And to add: the Nazis wouldn't have needed to kill any of them if they hadn't put them into camps to begin with. No part of territorial expansion necessitates the ethnic cleansing of your own people.
Honestly, fuck you.
Removed, civility.
So, nothing but insults?
And accusing the people who don't want to ignore the majority of Holocaust victims the whole ones denying the Holocaust?
I'm not the one ignoring 11 million deaths because they're not Jewish.
Ok, so then what was the plan? If the killing was a mercy, and was expedited by Germany losing the war, what was the plan for the 17 million collective people? Because I provided such a dismally low number of under one million in response to your comment saying the only reason the Nazis started killing more quickly was because they were losing. And those one million (more, since I'm sure my source didn't count all deaths, only those who were Jewish) mattered to people, so they mean no less than the other 16 million killed later during the war.
I'm waiting, I've provided sources regardless of whether you respect them, you've provided nothing to back up any of your claims, so why don't you refute my apparently unfounded claims of you being a holocaust denier?
Is that civil enough for a discussion with a holocaust denier, moderators? I'm glad we have to respect the opinions of holocaust deniers, god bless tolerating the intolerant. 🙄
Too chicken to answer my questions? Or did you finally realize you're wrong?
