If I have to hear another privileged cracker bloviating about how people not sharing their genocidal glee is their personal holocaust, I am going to become Luigi 2
MAMMA MIA 
Would it be wrong of me to see this all as like "jewish supremacy"? I really don't know what other label to put on these zionists who throw an absolute fit the SECOND the people they put down gain some equal footing and threaten to upend the status quo.
It's the same playbook as Hindu nationalists attacking Sanskrit scholars for being "anti-Hindu" or Christians calling the end of mandatory school prayer a persecution equivalent to Diocletian's. Just because Lipstadt has gone after actual Holocaust deniers doesn't mean she's not horrible. In fact, as Norman Finkelstein has argued (in The Holocaust Industry, she's actually to blame for amplifying them:
Denying the Holocaust is an updated version of the “new anti-Semitism” tracts. To document widespread Holocaust denial, Lipstadt cites a handful of crank publications. Her pièce de résistance is Arthur Butz, a nonentity who teaches electrical engineering at Northwestern University and who published his book The Hoax of the Twentieth Century with an obscure press. Lipstadt entitles the chapter on him “Entering the Mainstream.” Were it not for the likes of Lipstadt, no one would ever have heard of Arthur Butz.
...
To question a survivor’s testimony, to denounce the role of Jewish collaborators, to suggest that Germans suffered during the bombing of Dresden or that any state except Germany committed crimes in World War II – this is all evidence, according to Lipstadt, of Holocaust denial. And to suggest that [Elie] Wiesel has profited from the Holocaust industry, or even to question him, amounts to Holocaust denial.
that any state except Germany committed crimes in World War II - this is all evidence, according to Lipstat, of Holocaust denial.
Am I reading this right? If you point out Romania, France, Poland, Austria, and so on participated in/contributed to the Holocaust, Lipstat says that's Holocaust denial? That Germany and only Germany with help from no one else carried it out? Just....what?
The Holocaust wasn't even the only genocide in WW2. The Japanese and Italians made sure of that. Not to mention other crimes like the ones done to minorities in the US (residential schools, segregation, Japanese internment, etc.) or British famines in India.
For this Finkelstein cites Lipstadt's Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory (1993), pages 6, 12, 22, 89–90. Let's see . . .
It looks like this part is mostly from 89-90, where she discusses Austin J. App, an American professor who "formulated eight axioms . . . as the basic postulates of Holocaust denial." Unless the pagination on the copy I found is different from Finkelstein's, this must be one passage he's referring to:
App had to turn the Allies and the Nazis into traditional adversaries embroiled in the horrors of war. Reducing the numbers and deleting this unique technological means from the equation were thus a sine qua non for deniers -- one of the reasonable facades behind which they hide: War is an unmitigated evil, all sides are equally responsible, and there is no moral distinction between combatants.
Despite her distrust here and elsewhere in the book of anyone who mentions the internment of Japanese-Americans, elsewhere in the book she also briefly discusses the way Holocaust denial has led American cranks to claim that those internment camps were a hoax.
Norm Finkelstein was the catalyst to releasing me from the zionist programming. Haven’t seen this work before but I’m not surprised he’s already identified and called out this tribal bullshit.
i don't remember what podcast (radio war nerd?) it was that was describing this attempt by the U.S. ruling class to basically elevate zionist jews to become basically "super-white". like all the racial privileges and then extra ones added.
i guess christian zionists would gain status by association (which in reality means christian zionists do fascism in the name of jewish zionists, then later discard them because they are antisemites)
side note: i hate zionists for making me wonder about famous jewish people (do they support the genocide?!?). like i hate this shit. i don't want to think like this. i don't like being made to question if this is racist. my family has had close jewish family friends throughout my whole life. i can even recite hebrew prayers from memory. like wtf i hate zionists for doing this
Yeah it makes me feel like I'm going crazy in a way because I used to be an antisemtie and I let go of all that shit and relearned how to be a better person. Only for these zionazi pricks to go nuclear and leave me hanging like god damn you people are fucking monsters!
yeah i can imagine that makes you feel crazy and self-doubting. i know much of this is engineered to do so, like cooked up in a lab almost
it's all designed to either make you question your own morality, sanity, or doubt you've actually grown as a person depending on background. there's something horrible there for everyone (the well meaning, the former anti-semites, and the non-zionist jew).
Imagining a world where the NYT devoted credulous front page space to all the jet ski salesmen melting down because they thought Biden was going to expropriate their McMansion.
the NYT does in fact devote quite a lot of space to that specific type of person, but it's mostly in the opinion section.
Literally just doing the Corbyn strategy. A lot of the ghouls in the Labour party spent 2023/24 forming electoral strategy working groups with the Dems in the US, in part to advise on shit like this. Obviously you have the Israel lobby as the common denominator too. And I've seen multiple Dem donors and figures just openly reference the anti-Corbyn smear strategy in their tweets over the last 24hrs.
