Holocaust denial (like from this guy below) is inherently antisemitic in nature, rooted in Jew hatred. I'm going to resurrect a nice little challenge that a guy named Allan Matthews used to throw at Holocaust deniers back in my Usenet days. 1/ https://twitter.com/AndreasMeyerZAR/status/1005068630973992961 …

"Gee, you'd think that after many months of posting this at least one revisionist who isn't a neo-Nazi or anti-Semite would have come forward and said 'Here I am!' "But, no. It appears that there just aren't any such revisionists around." 2/ https://groups.google.com/d/msg/alt.revisionism/zP9lRo9PA_c/U5FHRRONehcJ …

"Based on their past posting history, the few bozos who have bothered to claim that they aren't neo-Nazis or anti-Semites were, upon examination of their claims, found to be clearly lying." 3/

"It's a fair question. After all, how can revisionsists hope to be taken seriously if they all have such apparent biases, agendas and axes to grind?" 6/

I must admit I was greatly amused whenever a Holocaust denier would try to answer Allan's challenge, oh-so-self-righteously protesting that he was not an antisemite or neo-Nazi. Inevitably, it took little prodding to get such people to say something blatantly antisemitic. 8/

Indeed. I had a little game whenever I saw a Holocaust denier claim he wasn't antisemitic, that his "Holocaust revisionism" was rooted only in a quest for the truth. Basically, I'd politely prod him and see how quickly I could get him to drop the mask. It rarely took long. 9/

The reason, of course, is, as a neo-Nazi leader named Harold Covington once put it 22 years ago: "The real purpose of Holocaust revisionism is to make National Socialism an acceptable political alternative again." 10/ https://www.myjewishlearning.com/article/holocaust-denial/ …

Sadly, these days, it appears not to have taken widespread acceptance of the Holocaust denier narrative to make National Socialism and Nazi-like beliefs acceptable political alternatives again. 11/11
