    I spend much time debunking conspiracy theories; anti-semitism is a thread underpinning many, alas. @Baddiel's documentary on holocaust denial is harrowing & vital - hope @BBC consider making it internationally available, it's important https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m000fjqk/confronting-holocaust-denial-with-david-baddiel …

        really interesting I was watching the whole thing thinking 'hmm there are dark echoes of the low-carbers here'. Obviously not the same, but the similarities are striking

        Absolutely - same themes recurrent. I did a little thread on holocaust memorial Day to show how long a tenure anti-Semitism CT has, & how modern incarnation lookshttps://twitter.com/drg1985/status/1221726924482977792?s=19 …

        Thread: Today is #HolocaustMemorialDay - on Jan 27th 1945, Soviet troops liberated Auschwitz-Birkenau. In a few short years, 5-6 million Jews were systematically murdered, alongside millions of Poles, Russians, & minorities. Yet #antisemitism now remains an insidious issue (1/8) pic.twitter.com/7gR7kNRvq4

        Good idea to show it in schools I would think

        I turned it off after a few minutes of Mulqueen's entrance; as good as the doc was, it was just painful to listen to him gobshyting away as if he—a rando from rural Ireland—alone possessed the true knowledge of the Nazis and the Holocaust.

        I don’t know why you bother. The facts are indisputable. Only absolute nutters deny it. Like that Irish looney playing his songs. This could become all consuming for you. Have some time off.

        Shameful that the denier is an Ennis man. I couldn’t believe it when I saw him 👎. I thought these people would be more likely to be found in other places... not in my home town, not Ireland’s friendliest town ☘️.Shame on him.

        I followed @AuschwitzMuseum . The Nazis carefully documented their atrocities. It is a humbling and important thread.
