Holocaust is widely discussed, but there are other, equally large-scale crimes of similarly appalling magnitude that are less discussed and not brought up in historical remembrance, with political leaders never citing those victims and trying to honor their memory. The one time it's done, they try and honor the victimizers alongside the victims, thinking them both "victims." It's disgusting.

Everyone remembers it. Everyone. It's still widely discussed today to the point we victim-blame those not responsible. But very well. I shall refrain from posting any further in this thread.

It's true that the Holocaust is remembered more than the Holodomor, the Cambodian genocide, or other mass-murders, but I haven't seen anyone marching and shouting that several million more Ukrainians should starve to death, or several hundred thousand more Tutsis butchered with machetes.
This goes beyond Holocaust denial. I imagine most of these white supremacists believe in a vast Jewish conspiracy, but, even so, I think hating millions of people based on rumor and innuendo requires a certain readiness to hate.

"6 million more" certainly is some sort of point-of-no-return on the anti-semitic spectrum.

Remember a while ago, when you were concerned about a rise in antisemitism?
Yeah. I think there is some more evidence to support that being a thing. =/
