While arguing with a co-worker about how what Israel is doing to oppress the Palestinians and how they have been pushed to this point, he asked me if I thought the Holocaust actually happened. It is beyond their comprehension that anyone would have any other opinion and it's easier to just assume I'm some weird conspiracy theorist.
I got the same thing. I was talking about how Israel has historically treated Palestinians and was asked if I was a Holocaust denier.
They couldn't comprehend how I thought Israel was capable of doing those things when the Jewish people were victims themselves not too long ago.
I don't get the logic.
Logic is pretty simple really.
You’re describing to them the genocide of the Palestinian people. On some level at least they must understand that they’re the genocide deniers here. But that can’t be so, they’re the main character! So clearly you’re the one denying genocide. QED
