Holocaust Remembrance Day Shouldn’t be About Jews, Major Paper Says


It’s not about the Jews, Jews.

Not everything is about you, Jews.

Basically everyone on earth died in the Holocaust, which was primarily not even done by Hitler but by Poles and Arabs.

New York Post:

A major Kentucky newspaper published an op-ed on National Holocaust Remembrance Day telling Jewish people that they “do not have a monopoly on persecution and atrocities.”

Even though the January 27 memorial focuses on the monumental tragedy of six million Jews killed by Nazi Germany during the Second World War, the Courier-Journal – part of the USA Today Network owned by parent company Gannet – lectured that the day be used to memorialize “every genocide” for the sake of inclusivity.

The op-ed, titled “Holocaust Remembrance Day is a time to remember more than one atrocity,” warned that fixating specifically on the Holocaust during such a memorial results in people “negating and trivializing the horrors of the past and the injustices of today.” 

It also made a point to remind readers “Hitler was just one of many dictators.”

The claims made in the piece were blasted on Twitter for being insensitive and for obscuring the memorial of those killed with progressives’ “general identity grievance.”

The op-ed, composed by the outlet’s five opinion contributors on Holocaust Remembrance Day, began with the declaration, “As one Louisville rabbi recently said, January 27 is a teachable moment to remember all the hate speech and all the violence that is perpetuated against religions, races and genders, all those acts committed in the past and those that continue to this day.”

The piece then made a much more controversial remark, stating, “Jews do not have a monopoly on persecution and atrocities.”

The rest of the piece amounted to a mini-lecture for people who focus solely on the Jewish people during the memorial. It suggested they’re keeping other races, religions and creeds down by doing so.

The op-ed added, “For one group, for one person, to claim that the hate and violence towards them is more important than another’s, only encourages more acts of violence against others, including Black people, Asians, Hispanics, Muslims, LGBTQ+, trans-gender and Native Americans. This list is not all-inclusive.”

The opinion contributors continued, saying, “If we as a community only focus on one religion, only one event, we are then negating and trivializing the horrors of the past and the injustices of today.”

They added, “International Holocaust Day is not just a mantra about one Jewish holocaust, but about every genocide, every mass tyranny that is carried out upon any group based on skin color, religion, gender identity and ethnic background.”

The piece additionally commented, “Hitler was just one of many dictators. The list of tyrants, past and present, continues with the addition of names from around the globe today.”

Hitler wasn’t even a dictator.

It was the Poles and the Arabs that did the Holocaust anyway.

It’s time to really overload this Holocaust bullshit until everyone’s soul is crushed by it.

It’s the only way.
