holocaust denial and anti-semitism
Holocaust denial refers to the belief and propagation of false information that denies or minimizes the Holocaust, the systematic genocide of approximately six million Jews by Nazi Germany during World War II. It involves questioning or rejecting the well-documented evidence, historical records, and testimonies related to the Holocaust. Anti-Semitism, on the other hand, is the prejudice, discrimination, or hatred directed towards Jewish people based on their religion, ethnicity, or heritage. It involves negative stereotypes, bigotry, and hostility towards Jews, often leading to discrimination, persecution, or violence against them.
