  I never said this was OK. Equivicating the two as if they’re the same level of evil is disingenuous

    What you said was genocide denial.

    Are you implying the Soviets would have genocided polish people if they could?

      Holocaust Revisionism: Many Holocaust scholars and Jewish organizations heavily criticize the theory, arguing it creates a false moral equivalency. The Holocaust involved the total, industrial extermination of European Jews, whereas Soviet mass crimes largely targeted political opponents, social classes, and specific nationalities for forced labor or deportation.Whitewashing Collaboration: Critics, such as those documenting the history of the Holocaust in Eastern Europe, argue that the theory is often used by ultranationalists to deflect historical blame for local collaboration in the Holocaust by recasting Jewish victims as “communist sympathizers” or framing Nazi occupiers as “liberators” from the Soviets.Perpetrator Rehabilitation: By framing the era as a “double genocide” where Soviets were equally as bad as Nazis, some far-right and nationalist groups have attempted to exonerate or rehabilitate local figures who actively participated in the murder of Jewish populations.

        Since you’re still trying to deny Polish genocide, your wish is my command.

    That isn’t how the word equivocating works.

    Same level of evil, just one group of perpetrators was more efficient.
