    What’s going on right now makes it clear how ridiculous the word “the” is in “the Holocaust”.

      That’s true… And the levels of censorship around the topic could even make one wonder why there so much control of the spread of media on the topic.

      I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but it does feel like there’s a conspiracy of western complicity trying to protect and tightly control opinions on the topic.

        I think it’s because the Nazis provide a clear bad guy that is unrelated or at least detachable from the power structure of today. Most other genocides or “holocausts” (an odd term when considering it’s Biblical origins) have uncomfortable connections to modern oligarchs.
