Oh yeah. That hand is revealed.

MTVN, since you brought up Auschwitz, I have a question for you. As you seem really confident in the official version of the Holocaust, please do try to answer it while avoiding the usual tactic of attacking the messenger with labels like "Denier" or "Nazi-sympathizer" or claiming that this is some sort of conspiracy. This is no conspiracy. Let me give you a set of facts that everyone agrees on and then a question.

For nearly 50 years, from 1945 to 1995, the people visiting Auschwitz saw plaques saying "4 million" people died there:

Spoiler:

Then, in 1995, the authorities revised that number down to "1.5 million" and visitors would see plaques with the new number. This is the official number to this day.

Spoiler:

My question is this and I'll put it in bold so you can't miss it:
If, for decades, the official number of dead in Auschwitz was 4 million but then, one day, that number was reduced to 1.5 million, how can the total number of 6 million remain unchanged and, moreover, how can we be confident that the 6 million figure is accurate?

To my knowledge there is no answer to this question. But if you can muster a sensible answer I will seriously consider changing my views on this subject. A reasonable thinking person will ponder this question (or some variation of it) but very few will dare ask it because that invites all sorts of accusations that they are a "Nazi-sympathizer" or a "Denier". I am a free-thinking person and I couldn't care less what people on here think of me so I am not afraid to ask it.
