    Nobody is pretending. They aren’t taught about the other 6 million people at all.

    Fwiw Jews made a pretty big deal about making sure everyone remembered, and look where we’re at when Atlas shrugs for the length of an upward mobility. I think it was making a difference and necessary in the face of a decades-long dismantling of the public education system.

      Edit: also… why did you have to frame it about “the Jews” instead of “the problem with people not learning 12 million total people died and queer folks were at the top of the list”

      Also, validation, yup… I know boomers that were “progressive anti racists” and beat up queer people
