So, how does this "hoax" work, anyway?

I only once met a person who is presented as a ‘holocaust survivor’. He goes around the country giving lectures to school children and their parents.
He said in the course of his lecture many things that he personally had no experience of but only learnt later AFTER the war, AFTER he achieved adulthood.
Yet he presented them AS IF he was a personal eye-witness to those things.

And this is something that is permitted all around Europe and north America. It is not only permitted but is actively promoted.


This Jewish ‘child survivor’ from Poland was only allowed there at the schools BECAUSE of the credibility that him having been in numerous concentration camps lended to the H mythology he was promoting
BUT the very fact that he as a Polish Jewish child (he was eleven years old when the war ended) and BOTH his parents survived internment in numerous camps, is ACTUALLY PROOF OF THE EXACT OPPOSITE of what he was claiming to be an eyewitness too!!!
The irony is humongous! It is huge!

He is ACTUALLY THE LIVING PROOF OF THE EXACT OPPOSITE of the alleged ‘final solution’ mass-gassing genocide of ALL jews in death camps.
The disconnect from obvious reality is a collossal one!

Here was an old man who as a very young child had been in Ravensbruck and other camps who we were — and still are — expected to believe unquestioningly.
Yet he not only claimed the opposite of what he was the living proof of, but he ignorantly BELIEVED the illogicality of what he was telling! 
And presumably no-one had ever pointed this out to him.
...Until he came to my town and gave his usual lecture.
As I asked him a rather basic and reasonable question publicly. At the end of his talk, when he invited questions from the audience, I respectfully asked him something presumably no-one had dared to ask him before (such is the irrational ‘Emperor’s-new-clothes’ reverence that everyone learns to adopt).
I asked him how he explained the indisputable fact that he himself as a small child HAD survived internment in numerous camps, IF, as he claimed, there had been a policy to kill ALL Jews, especially ones who could not work.
He got angry and with visible outrage told me the numbers of Jews living in Poland before the war and then the diminished numbers still living there AFTER the war: illogically implying that all those Jews no longer there after the war had been gassed/mass-murdered.
The convenor of the lecture then stood up and ended the meeting saying the ‘survivor’ was probably tired and needed to rest before travelling home. So I had no opportunity to point out the OBVIOUS FACT to him that he himself and his parents were Polish Jews who survived internment AND WERE NO LONGER LIVING IN POLAND!!!! So here again he himself and his parents were living examples of the opposite of the narrative he was promoting. He is a living example of why the numbers of Jews in Poland were diminished!

Perhaps the teacher who abruptly ended the meeting on some level knew that what he was saying and claiming did not make logical sense and that if the conversation had been allowed to continue others would realise that fact.

This is just one example of someone spreading a mythology, believing it, and promoting it.
Paul Rassanier famously made it a point to interview ANYONE who claimed to be an eye-witness to a mass gassing. And he never met a single credible Jewish witness. Not a single one. And this was in the 1940s and 50s!!

Even intelligent, honest, adult Jews who had themselves been interned in camps admitted most of the claims to being eye-witnesses were bogus.
Samuel Gringauz being one who bravely put that down in writing and added his name to it.

"most of the memoirs and reports of Holocaust survivors are full of preposterous verbosity, graphomanic exaggeration, dramatic effects, overestimated self-inflation, dilettante philosophising, would-be lyricism, unchecked rumours, bias, partisan attacks…"
~Samuel Gringauz, "Jewish Social Studies" (New York), January 1950, Vol. 12, p. 65

So the idea that because many hundreds of thousands of people who were ‘there’ and later believed the rumours, the deliberate psy-op misinformation and the post-war atrocity propaganda, does not mean they are all deliberately and consciously participating in a total “hoax”. That is an incredibly stupid miscomprehension of this example of basic human psychology.

You have dodged my questions.

That the Nazis had been registering, imprisoning and murdering Jews in gas chambers and mass shootings, as part of a plan to rid occupied Europe of Jews, was known from before the end of the war. Initially it was referred to as a genocide, and the Holocaust was, and still is, largely known by Jews as the destruction or Shoah. The Holocaust is the most modern term and now most widely used.



Not true. The Auschwitz, other camp trials, Einsatzgruppen and trials of individual senior Nazis began in the 1940s. The AR camp trials began in the late 1950s.




I am not arguing the Soviets ran the hoax, I am arguing against it. I am also arguing that it is not a Jewish run hoax. It is too big a hoax for any group to run. Only someone with a predilection to believing in hoaxes and conspiracies will fall for the claim of the Holocaust was hoaxed.

For there to have been a hoax, needs the cooperation of the c2.5 million Jews you claim were not gassed, to pretend they were and not return home to claim their home, businesses and jobs. How were the 34,000 Dutch Jews sent from Westerbork to Sobibor in 1943, persuaded to pretend they were gassed there? Did the Nazis great them and tell them they were now part of a hoax, that was designed to make the Nazis look very bad? Or, were they all contacted at the end of the war and told not to return to the Netherlands, they were to be resettled elsewhere and they were to keep quiet about really happened at Sobibor?

You have clearly not thought through how the hoax could have worked.
