I had no idea even the NAZIs who were there were telling these nutjobs they are CRAZY.

Do you know there are people who also actively deny that Sandy Hook happened? Yeh, it was all a set-up by Obama to drag the guns out of law-abiding people's hands.

I had no idea either; I read the Wikipedia entry mostly because I've heard of Holocaust denial but I was curious what these assholes use as "evidence" (and thankfully it's a combination of fraud/forgeries and misunderstanding/misusing evidence to support their already-made-up minds), but reading that actual SS officers spoke out against them made me feel kind of how I felt at the end of The Pianist.

I've actually tangled with a few Sandy Hook deniers on FB. They're right down there with all the other nutjobs, the "9/11 was an inside job/false flag" horseshit. There are people who will deny anything they don't want to believe; the human ability to self-delude doesn't surprise me, but it does disappoint me.
