    Holocaust Denial is a practice as old as the Holocaust itself.

    It was started by Nazi propagandists. They danced around the genocide by using cryptic words like “special treatment” or “final solution”, or “alligator alcatraz” (edit: oops got my timelines mixed up)

    Meanwhile, they kept people mostly in the dark as to what was going on there. People were abducted, transferred, and procedurally executed, with 0 transparency.

      Note that “final solution” was a euphemism back then. That’s where the phrase gained its context.
