Q. What is ‘THE Holocaust’?
A. It is an emotionally gripping narrative that is constantly and relentlessly regurgitated in the western ‘news’ media; is forced upon impressionable school children; is protected from critical analysis by inconsistent and hypocritical ‘hate-speech’ laws; and is endlessly presented before the populations of America and Europe in film dramatisations and documentaries.
It is a narrative that has become a quasi-religious shibboleth; one that MUST be believed uncritically and unquestioningly or face ostracisation and persecution. I.e. we have been conditioned to accept that ‘good’ people believe the entire narrative unquestioningly, as only evil, neo-nazi, unfeeling antisemites would dare to approach it using reason, logic and historical research.
And it has become a narrative that is usually quite removed from any proper understanding of its actual world-war context.
Every day, somewhere a western news outlet will be doing a ‘news’ story on this relatively small part of the six-year long world war.
Every year, somewhere a TV or film company will be creating a ‘new’ feature on it.
No other aspect of that world war gets anything like the coverage. In fact — as is normal and to be expected — much of the details and stories of personal suffering are increasingly forgotten.
But not so with this part of that hugely destructive and mass-murderous, global conflict.
On the contrary, this relatively small aspect of WW2 gets increasingly more coverage.
Which rather demonstrates that the narrative is something abnormal and contrived.
E.g. expect no news stories or film treatments of these guys and their WW2 experience:
Australian soldiers after being liberated from a Japanese POW camp in 1945 (Changi, Singapore).
Don’t expect your children to be forced to hear about, or see films and photos, of their experience and suffering.
But do expect to read and see features advertising and selling this new Netflix dramatisation:
