Donald Trump is withholding billions of dollars in New York infrastructure unless he gets Penn Station and Dulles Airport named after him.
This is not only brazenly corrupt. It is sick, twisted and egomaniacal. The time is long overdue for sane Republicans to stand up to Trump.
@AotearoaLib Helen Clark made it clear that waiting for legal definitions of genocide is after the fact. Genocide is unfolding NOW, states are under obligation to prevent it.
Holocaust denial is not just a lie. It is a tool of ideological hatred, spread today primarily through social media. Its aim is the systematic erasure of the truth about the greatest crime in the history of Europe. Thanks to the new โStop Denialโ tool, everyone can now easily take meaningful action to defend historical truth and the dignity of the victims of Auschwitz.
โA decade or two ago, few people would have dared look Holocaust Survivors in the eyes and coldly claim that all their testimonies were lies. Today, there are very few of them left. And so antisemitic, xenophobic, and populist voices grow louder, trying to profit from lies. Let us show that we are greater in number, that truth is stronger. Together, we can stop their hateful words,โ said Dr. Piotr M. A. Cywiลski, Director of the Museum and initiator of the โStop Denialโ campaign.
On the dedicated โStop Denialโ website - https://t.co/ZcHojqjlhf - we have prepared a collection of materials that clearly debunk the most common lies propagated by deniers regarding the history of the German Nazi concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz.
The assembled documents, photographs, eyewitness accounts, and historical research results demonstrate, step by step, the nature of these falsehoods and manipulations. They equip anyone with tools to respond effectively and accurately to Holocaust denial.
โFighting deniers online is extremely difficult work, because those who deny the Holocaust ignore all available facts and endlessly repeat the same lies. Their goal is not the search for truth, but the desecration of the memory of the victims,โ said Dr. Igor Bartosik of the Museumโs Research Center, author of the online lesson on denialist strategies which served as the foundation for the โStop Denialโ campaign (see the lesson: https://t.co/Gp1iuaHSSW).
