I'm glad you're answering—but you're missing my point.
You quote post-war German courts as if they were impartial. They were **not**. These were trials held under close Allied observation, in a defeated, demoralized, occupied nation—hardly the conditions for **independent judicial inquiry**. The political climate made it **impossible** to present any defense that questioned the official story. Careers, reputations, even freedom were at stake.
Let's be honest: these were not trials in any conventional sense. They were **rituals of guilt**, conducted under compulsion to conform. Most of the "confessions" were made under threat or duress—just as we saw at Nürnberg, except with a German flag on the wall of the courtroom.
And as for Auschwitz:
You're quoting the new death total—"just over 1 million"—but you're presenting it as though it **doesn't conflict with earlier stories**. The original charge at Nuremberg was **4 million**, carved on the memorial plaque at Auschwitz until the 1990s. When the total was lowered, the **overall Holocaust death total wasn't adjusted downward**.
Why?
Because it's **no longer about evidence**—it's a matter of rescuing a narrative.
I am demanding consistency. If the central death camp total was inflated by 3 million for decades, on how many other aspects is the account based more in politics than fact?
I'm not sensationalizing here. I'm demanding historical accountability, no matter how sacrosanct the subject.
So yes—I'm listening to myself. Are you?
