Yes, increased sampling.

once you find out you can get free handouts if you claim you are a survivor then the numbers rise as if by magic

>>15302340
>is it scientifically possible for the number of holocaust survivors to be increasing over time
no
by logical induction we can obtain the insight that bullshittery is happening here

>>15302342
Probably this, yeah. Not that reasonable answers will stop the axe grinding but yeah.

>>15302374
That's not a reasonable answer. There would be tons of these supposed survivors dying every year so the idea that there would be 4 times the amount of so called survivors after a duration of 4 years is incredulous to an honest person. Someone born in 1944 would be 72 by 2016. So even if you would have been born at the very end of ww2, you would have been at around live expectancy in 2016 and certainly at life expectancy in 2020, and this is the MINIMUM age of a supposed survivor. Most of the claimants would be OLDER than 72 in 2016. So it's a big lie from the holocaust industrial complex.

If you ask three different sources that define and count them differently sure. A thread died for this.

>>15302561
Another reasonable answer.

>>15302710
N-no any/all variances I don't like are a conspiracy

>>15302340
>>15302360
Your 'logical induction' just shows that you're incapable of critical thinking when data pertains to an aspect of your political/religious beliefs. You assert an observed increase in the overall number, when in actuality the number of survivors in israel is a subset of the overall survivors, thus article 2 and 3 don't necessarily contradict each other and don't allow the identification of an up or downwards trend. So even when not considering this >>15302561, it would be more parsimonious to assume only the first article is wrong, instead of all three of them.

>>15302561
No threads were harmed in the making of this science thread, jannie came around to censor wrongthink a few hours ago and deleted a bunch of threads, leaving ample lebensraum for this discussion. You got all triggered and emotional for no reason all.

>>15302772
Disagreeing and explaining various perspectives on why people disagree isn't "being triggered" nor "being emotional". Any wonder you lot can't do more than schizopost if you think disagreement is something to be ashamed of. Holy shit.

>>15302342
>>15302561
These are the most reasonable answers in this thread because they do not downplay the severity of the holocaust

>>15302790
Fortunately, historiographers need not rely on anecdotes to establish the veracity of the holocaust.

>>15302793
No you don't get it since all they do is rely on anecdotes that means everyone else does too. Get it now?

>>15302793
This, any holocaust book worth its salt contains zero anecdotes

Way I see it there are two options. Either the holocaust did not happen at all, or the holocaust happened in its entirety and at least six million Jews were killed. Since the first possibility is obviously crazy, I'm going with the second one

>>15302803
There weren't even 6 million people in the world during the time of the holocaust.

Okay I just made that up. But the idea of the population of mulciple countries being killed and has always been farce. Croatia's population is 4 million poeple. You're really going to say the entire of Croatia could have been rounded up and put through some gas chambers in the span of a few months - it just doesn't add up or make any sense, it's beyond ridiculous.

>>15302340
Escaping holocausts involves caudal autotomy. Some studies include tails in the count, some don't.

>>15302821
Incredulity is not an argument. Also, it was roughly four years, not "a few months".

>>15302793
All of the other evidence originates from the USSR, according to the standard narrative, the USSR produced nothing by lies and propaganda from 1917 to 1991.
Heres a video of Anne Frank's step sister Eva Schloss describing how she knows for a fact that the Soviet films and photos of the liberation of Auschwitz were frauds

>You're really going to say the entire of Croatia could have been rounded up and put through some gas chambers in the span of a few months
Around 2.7 million directly in death camps and over the course of about 4-5 years. If you can't even get very basic information correct I assure you nobody thinks you've the first clue what you're talking about.
>>15302853
He knows so little he hasn't even skimmed wikipedia for a basic bitch summary. Truly, he is the master race.

>>15302855
So now you love anecdotes huh

>>15302863
>wikipedia

>>15302855
>according to the standard narrative, the USSR produced nothing by lies and propaganda from 1917 to 1991
Does that sound like a reasonable assumption?

>>15302803
There were not 6 million Jews killed by Hitler. There were 5.2 million Jews killed by Hitler, that's the postwar estimate, that's the "five million" claimed by Eichmann, that's the population data, them's the facts.

>>15302740
>You assert an observed increase in the overall number, when in actuality the number of survivors in israel is a subset of the overall survivors, thus article 2 and 3 don't necessarily contradict each other
the articles are obviously meant to be read sequentially you shitwit. OF COURSE 2 and 3 don't contradict each other.

>>15302340
the author of the first article was a moron, that's all.

>>15302855
damn, even anne franks sister says its fake, yet this thread is still full of kvetching kikes claiming its real. no respect at all for an actual holocaust survivor, unless she mouths the word the kvetchers want to hear.
