Or one of them anyway.
I just can't seem to understand why neo-nazis deny the Holocaust. Assuming that the hate Jew, fags, crips and all who where murdered in the death camps, surely it's more consistent with their mindset to be proud of having wiped six million "undesirables" off the face of the planet.
I could understand Germans wanting to deny the Holocaust. The massive guilt of having to deal with that can lead to a very natural human response of denial, which I'm sure we've all done at some point. As a nation however, the German people seem to be taking it very maturely and more than willing to openly talk about it.
Why would neo-Nazis deny the Holocaust? It doesn't make their cause any more palatable to normal people, it only shows them as being further on the edges of the mainstream discourse than one could have possible imagined. Is it a natural response to them seeing the jewish people get "sympathy" territory and treatment from the international community and they want to snuff out that? If so, then they grossly overestimate how much influence they have, which shows them to be complete buffoons when it comes to political awareness on top of everything else.
It just doesn't make any logical sense!
