There are many reasons for censorship:
1. You don’t want falsehoods to be disseminated to the gullible masses
2. You think that particular falsehoods are especially dangerous because of their ability to stir up the masses to violence or their destructive potential (eg. climate change denialism, if it becomes widespread, could lead to planetary disaster assuming the climate change narrative is actually true).
3. You just want to punish the purveyors of odious lies because you love the truth so much
Etc
Being persecuted doesn’t make you right. It makes you sexy, cool, suave in the eyes of people who are drawn to rebellious characters. But it doesn’t make you right. That has to be decided on a purely intellectual basis.

He's not an actual revisionist. He's never seriously studied the topic (by his own admission).
He wrote a book on Hitler, and based on what he learned whilst writing it he does not believe Hitler had any knowledge of any genocide. He also does not beleive in any large-scale gassings in Auschwhitz. He pushes what is called Holocaust-lite.
If you want real revisionist work I'll help you out.

Here is a good starter, a 4 hour video that dives into the Reinhardt camps -- the site of allegedly ~1.5 million deaths -- and dissects authorative books on the topic.

And here is a mainstream doc. just to sanity check that there is something sketchy. They go to Treblinka to try to find evidence of gas chambers (they also looked for bodies), and best they could find was a prehistoric shark tooth, some combs, a tooth filling, and a tile of polish pottery with a mullet star falsley identified as a Star of David.

Why would you want them to deny the whole thing? They're after the truth. To me it's even more interesting that he thinks there were mass killings, because it shows he's not trying to be on a "side," he's just trying to say what he really thinks after decades of familiarity with the sources.

I've always suspected that the real story is that it happened but was mostly handled within the "polycratic" structure of the Nazi regime, with Himmler being an unsurprising culprit, and that the numbers are way off the official ones. I think the "Holocaust industry" has never given a fuck about the numbers, they just picked a reasonable middle ground total after it stabilized from Soviet and American propaganda and then made adherence to that number a loyalty oath. Didn't Raul Hilberg say it's around 5 million and get in trouble for that?

To me what is more interesting about the event is the fetishism of it. Why would it even be so remarkable if the Nazis tried to kill a few million people? The Turks did that and nobody really cared the way we care about the Jews. The Soviets did it on an even large scale to the Poles and many others. The Chinese did it to eachother. What is magical about the mass killing of Jews specifically? If you pull at this gradually and sensitively, you start to reveal deep structures in the European subconscious, and you find that the Jewish neurotic self-hatred/self-worship complex has actually grafted itself onto the European one symbiotically at a shockingly deep level. We were "primed" to believe something like the Holocaust narrative, primed to worship the Jews and see the death of a single Jew as more important than a hundred non-Jews (the way Jews themselves see it), well before the events of WW2.

Happy Yom Kippur to my Jewish friends. May you all leave Europe and America soon.

I don’t want them to deny the whole thing. I want the truth. It’s good that Irving is not so ideological as to deny the whole thing. But doesn’t this put a nail in the coffin of Holocaust denialism? That Irving, the most credible revisionist, whose political and personal views clearly have him biased in favour of the Nazis, nevertheless could not find it within himself as a historian to deny the Holocaust.

With respect to what you said: I don’t think it has anything to do with Europeans’ particular love of Jews. It just has to do with post-war propaganda needing to demonise the Nazis as much as possible, from both the communist and the liberal sides. That’s why it’s ok for people to worship Churchill who starved loads of Indians to death for example but not Hitler. It’s not that we love Indians more than Jews, it’s that Churchill won the war and Hitler lost.

So why does he say there are documents proving that there were infrequent gassing at Auschwitz and through his study of Himmler claims that without a shadow of a doubt some of the camps were used as death camps (although he insists not Auschwitz primarily)?

In a society that constantly harps about freedom of intellectual inquiry, those who go along certain avenues, even out of honesty, are severely punished. This is hypocritical, and it can indicate a certain area of truth they are trying to hide.
I can see your point of David Irving was screaming, "We need to genocide the Jews right now," but that's not what he was doing.

If you can pull up these alleged documents, I would be happy to address them.
The Posen Speeches says nothing of death camps, or gas chambers, and are riddled with inconsistencies. I will point one out
>‘The Jewish people will be exterminated,’ says every Party comrade, ‘that is quite clear, it is in our program: deactivation [Ausschaltung] of the Jews, extermination; that is what we are doing
The NSDAP NEVER said anything about mass killing of jews (they did however speak of deportation).
>This speech was not only recorded, but at war’s end, the Allies found a stash of shellac disks with that speech. In other words: Himmler had seen to it that his “secret” speech – containing stuff no one should ever talk about – was multiplied
I really would rather you first watch/read this>>22531345, as I am not too excited about having to go over this. The claim here is quite remarkable in scope—the mass genocide of 6 million jews (3 mill in camps) via delousing agents and diesel engine exhaust in rooms that doubled as showers/hair-salons (in the case of Treblinka, please just watch that 4 hour documentary cited, or at least the mainstream one). Where are the bodies? Gone because they destroyed them all in open air fires (after having already burried them btw). Communications (because the UK had access to German communication following the breaking of their codes)? None, and also they spoke in code words (from Wansee, which was also in code words). Diaries? Uh, none etc. etc. IN essense think of the discrepancy between the alleged crime and the evidence you're presenting.

The Circassian genocide had 1,500,000 deaths and even if Irving is correct the Holocaust had twice that count. But to answer your question, if the number of people that died during the Circassian genocide or the parties responsible was politically because there were people in Russia who believed Circassians are interlopers using their genocide as a cudgel to control Russians then denial of the Circassian genocide would be a serious issue. In that case the denial of the Circassian genocide may be severely frowned upon by some.

Some people say they are Khazars, a Turkic group in what is now Russia that weirdly converted to Judaism in the Middle Ages, and the idea is that after the kingdom collapsed these Khazars became itinerant and genetically took over European Jewish populations I think. If you want the older writings on it, read the first chapter of Solzhenitsyn's 200 Years Together and Koestler's Thirteenth Tribe, but these days it's FIERCELY, obsessively disputed by Jews and Israelis and of course being Jews they use their influence to smother any mention of it in the mainstream press. Any time something comes out on it there are parallel press campaigns attacking and denouncing it. From what I understand it's a lot more ambiguous and possible than the heavily curated "mainstream" lets on. There was even a controversy in Israel with one Israeli scholar defending it, and if you read between the lines of the controversy, it was very Jewy how they Jewed that Jew, tons of typical litigious weasel words.

On a milder level, a lot of people don't consider secular European Jews since they increasingly became degenerate secular Talmudists over the centuries. By the 19th century it gets really really bad though as Jewish influence over finance and media becomes astronomical, in the 18th century it was still not too bad. A lot of this has to do with mass population movements of, once again, Russian Jews due to the Russian expulsions. Most of the troubles you hear about in Eastern Europe are due to massive influxes of Jews from Russia who move in and immediately start dominating local trades and stuff. Solzhenitsyn is good on this again. It's inarguable that they really did do things like dominating local trades and especially getting monopolies on alcohol production. They were often kind of like inverted gypsies, being a parasite population but one that dominates the locals and takes over their towns rather than stealing from them and living on the fringes. Plenty of examples of countries with barely developing middle classes, towns etc. having Jewish majorities in all middle class professions and in education.

The Posen speech talks about a genocide of Jews in general, and about killing even women and children “so that future generations won’t have to deal with this problem”. He talks about how they’ve done all this but have still managed to maintain their moral integrity. Quite twisted stuff. But yeah, “deportation to the East” seems like an extremely vague codeword, and in the Posen speech Himmler basically acknowledges it as such.

>You can see why [in the 1920s] American felt our borders were out of control. [The immigration law passed at the time] stated a preference for Northern Europeans] ... [Restrictions on] Southern Catholics and Jews—this went on to 1964, so all through [World War II] there were incredible restrictions. 1965 comes, we’re reluctant leaders of the world, we have an economic boom, we didn’t have much immigration, and we have a ton of guilt. First, about the Holocaust. [Rep.] Manny Celler was voted in in 1923…he was Jewish, from Manhattan. He was warning about the Holocaust, and everybody was ignoring him. In 1947, he was head of the Judiciary Committee, and he was able to get jurisdiction [over immigration] changed from the Labor Committee. He had control over immigration reform. There was a huge attitude change. Exodus had been published. Israel was popular. The other thing was the civil rights movement. Black soldiers were coming back, and there were Jim Crow laws. Those movements drove the 1965 law. Philip Hart, called the conscience of the Senate, was passionate about civil rights. ... They decided to do away with preferences for work skills, and have preferences for family reunification. That’s pretty unique to immigration law—they gave green cards to extended family members.
>“Manny Celler managed to get immigration into the Judiciary committee,” Orchowski told TAC in an interview. “That changed the whole focus on immigration from a labor thing to a justice [thing].”
>Following the conclusion of the war, Celler worked to liberalize American immigration laws. He helped pass a bill that allowed 339,000 Displaced Persons to come to the United States, including many Jews.
>Over the next few decades, he continued to work to liberalize American immigration laws, pushed by Jews and others who were discriminated against by the current system. That culminated with him writing and passing the INA, which is also known the Hart-Celler Immigration Act of 1965.

And don't forget that the Brits pioneered genocide as a terror tactic against the Boers, specifically targeting their women and children.

The best proof of the "it's unique because it targeted Jews!" thing is that nobody bothers talking about the systematic killing and euthanizing of other groups by the Nazis except specialists or on rare occasions, even though it was equally "industrial" and "cold."
