Why Dr. Johann Paul Kremer’s Diary Isn’t Evidence for the Holocaust Narrative
It may come of no surprise that I often engage in discussion of the Holocaust narrative with random people on social media. I begin most of these conversations by asking for evidence of Holocaust claims. The average Holocaust believer will link an article from the United States Holocaust Memorial and Museum’s Holocaust Encyclopedia, or say…
Owns Gone Wrong
Part 2 I spend a good amount of time engaging in discussion (arguing) with people on Twitter (currently known as X). In many cases when you are arguing for the correct position, people try to “own” you but instead bolster your argument and confirm your own biases. In this article I’d like to share a…
Piles of Documents
While researching my last article about piles of stuff, I ran across an article by Cynthia Lee that was issued by UCLA Today on November 7, 2008 titled “Physician’s Photos a Haunting Reminder of the Holocaust.” The original article is only available on archive.org, so I will be addressing the reissue found on the UCLA…
Holocaust Affirming on Twitter
A friend of the site emailed me with the idea to look at some Holocaust debates on Twitter. I have already done this for Reddit, so I wouldn’t want to leave anyone out.

Ending The Conversation Part Two
Part 1, Part 3 Let us continue where we left off in the discussion of Adam Klein’s article. You’ll notice how this next section is called ‘A conspiracy resurrected’. Holocaust revisionist is not a conspiracy theory. Revisionists are not the ones making the accusation. It is the Holocaust itself, the claim of Germans murdering 6…
Ending The Conversation Part One

Does this article employ academic rigor? We’ll see. Will Klein provide evidence that fights Holocaust denial? Let’s find out. The first bit is about…
A Matter of Policy?

While I am fact checking information received from ChatGPT this article is an exploration into the workings of ChatGPT therefore I will leave it as is. Just be aware of ChatGPT’s shortcomings while reading this article.) I recently got into…
Reverse Debunking the ADL Part Four
Part 1, Part 2, Part 3 Today I will conclude reverse debunking the ADL. If you’ll recall, in part one I pointed out how the following ‘myth’ is a strawman because no revisionist says that just because there is no ‘master plan’ the Holocaust didn’t happen. Nonetheless, it is my duty to dismantle the ADL’s talking…
