General Holocaust Denial Discussion Part II

Status
Not open for further replies.
If you've studied the holocaust you'd know it originated from a very small group of people, the only reason it grew was because these 'historians' use each other as sources and DO NOT do their own investigation. Simply READ their books and look at the sources.

The holocaust did indeed originate with a small group of people. They were Nazi officers who met to discuss a final solution, if you mean "the extermination" as the Holocaust, but if you mean the origins of the anti-emitic behaviour that lead to the Final Solution, with Chrystalnacht etc, I would not consider The SA, SS, NSDAP and other organisations as "small".

The Holocaust did not begin with the historians. If you mean the current understanding, then that didn't start with small groups either. It started wiuth thousands of survivors of concentration camps. Including the guards, officers and soldiers who liberated the camps.

You ask very amature questions and it's obvious you haven't done any research or studied at least Birkenau(the most notorious 'deathcamp' that kept hundreds of thousands of people alive, quite a failed death camp imo).

You say "Amature" I say "Obvious". Why ask the obvious questions? Because you say junk like that instead of answering them. Food for thought.

Pro tip: Read the exterminationist books, look at their sources, most of them still believe in the human soap and lampshade soviet propaganda! Some of them even claimed the Nazis used an atomic bomb to kill loads of Jews! This was actually accepted as fact until it was later debunked. THERE IS room for debate stop being closed minded.
Pro tip: History doesn't fall into "exterminationist" and "non-exterminationist" catagories. How about you follow your own advise. Read the books by HISTORIANS. Read the evidence, the bibliographies, sources and such, then try and work out why some folks still support those notions. Amazingly there is a difference between "disagreeing with you" and "being wrong". Happening to follow the available evidence is not "closed minded". You are the one failing to start from an objective standpoint. You bias yourself from the off by claiming historians follow an agenda and making up funny names for them.

The 6 million figure is biblical, it's been used by Zionist groups throughout history. When it was discovered the Soviets lied about Auschwitz death count and it went from 4 million to 1.1 million...WHY didn't the figure change? WHY is it still 6 million? Why are so many people blindly going on faith alone? It's such an obvious lie that serves a religious purpose.

Or maybe, just maybe, because 6million is a good estimation of the missing an unnacounted for people the Nazis themselves claimed to have killed. Would that not be a good reason for the number?

And just on a quick note. Is there any thesis by an exterminationist here that shows how you can burn 5 100lb(45kg) bodies within 30 minutes??

Define an exterminationist. Then ask how many bodies you can fit into an industrial furnace. How did you establish the size, temperature and fuel density of the furnace? Where did that figure come from? etc... Random hyperbole will not be addressed.

No I'm talking about this website.
Then you either lying or being very selective in your reading, since no one here except deniers uses the "tactic" you describe.
Nope, it's just what I've come to notice, only a few talk about gas chambers, hell only 2 have even gone under oath when talking about their experiences and they both collapsed.
Setting aside that you have just exposed a profound ignorance of the history involved (again), the person that you are specifically whining about is not one of those people who has been under oath, nor has Wiesel claimed any direct experience with gas chambers, nor would he have been taken seriously by historians if he had since he was never in the parts of the camp where such were in operation.

You're really not terribly good at this, you know -- even by denier "standards".
I have, and found they use each other as sources then use a select few 'survivors' as sources too. So I decided to watch real survivors and their experiences on video, thousands of them, going to the source.
No, you quite obvious have not. You have read what other, more clever deniers *tell* you about those books.

The only sources available and used are not survivor testimony.

So once again you are either lying or very selective in your reading, as Lemmy's post will demonstrate should you choose not to ignore it.
You're right, I wrongly assumed many people here had watched the documentaries and got informed.
We get our information from historians, and if there is any ambiguity then checking their sources.

You may be content to get your historical knowledge from movies, the rest of us are more exacting.
Then they should at least ask those questions, but they don't ask anything relating to the gas chambers, only daily life in the camps.
So, documentarians should ask questions they already know the interviewee does not and could not have the answers to?

The point of this would be ... ?
It was open to anyone
... and you know this ... how?

I doubt, for example, that had Eisenhower shown up for for a quick game he would have been allowed. The Red Cross, to take another example, certainly was not.
as it was inside the camp itself,
Which, of course, had public tours and was a noted vacation spot?

Do you even think about what you are writing (rhetorical question)?
as stated before POW teams would actually go there to play against other teams.
No, you have stated, completely unsupported by any evidence that you have offered, that *a* team went there *one* time.
If you watch the Shoah Foundation interviews you would hear survivors talk about it.
They talk about not seeing lines when they were there to watch or play a game?

How dastardly...
Then you've just debunked the holocaust, congratulations. For the claim to be true, and the numbers to be correct, endless lines of people would be lining up day and night.
Let's see your math on this.
No because no questions are asked of all the survivors about the gas chambers, as stated before. It's automatically assumed everyone saw it, thus there is no need for investigation. Very unscientific.
Well, historians and every non-denier here do not make this assumption.

If fact, it only seems to be *you* assuming that they would have.

Projection is an ugly thing.
Because the holocaust was occurring 50 feet away in clear view of the football field. Something like that doesn't just slip your mind.
And everyone at the football field would have known this was taking place ***inside the building*** and so would have been watching that instead of the game?

Seriously: you are *not* very good at this.
The Birkenau documentation only shows a peak population of 160,000 and a lot of those were sent to other camps. Roughly 100,000 at any one time were living in Birkenau. You're going on blind faith.
Once again, define and document "a lot".

Because the documentation of those that were sent there and those that were not killed on arrival and those that then went on to other camps tells quite a different story.
You mean their testimonies which contradict one another and were also forced via torture?
No, I mean those that agree on the big picture, none of which were obtained via torture.
Read Legions of Death, the British soldier even takes pride of the fact they forced a signed statement from Hoess.
That would be the Butler book reporting second hand that the British had to force Hoess to admit who he was, which fact was established during his trial without the slightest influence by the British or reference to that supposed incident?

You haven't actually read the book, have you?
If you've studied the holocaust you'd know it originated from a very small group of people, the only reason it grew was because these 'historians' use each other as sources and DO NOT do their own investigation. Simply READ their books and look at the sources.
I have.

You demonstrably have not.

And it did not "grow" by any rational definition of that word.
You ask very amature questions and it's obvious you haven't done any research or studied at least Birkenau (the most notorious 'deathcamp' that kept hundreds of thousands of people alive, quite a failed death camp imo).
Again, no source for your numbers, and no understanding that Birkenau was not in operation *as a death camp* for months before liberation. You also neglect the death marches forced in advance of Soviet forces, as if those death didn't count.

Free hint: gas chambers are not the entirety of the Holocaust, and less than half of its victims were gassed.
Pro tip: Read the exterminationist books, look at their sources, most of them still believe in the human soap and lampshade soviet propaganda!
You can, of course, *cite* historians who do more than mention documentation (not testimony) about these two?
Some of them even claimed the Nazis used an atomic bomb to kill loads of Jews!
Really? Who does more than reference someone else making this claim and endorse the idea?

Free hint #2: Follow your own advice regarding actually reading the books and following the sources so you do not look so much like a fool.
This was actually accepted as fact until it was later debunked.
By whom, in both cases?
THERE IS room for debate stop being closed minded.
Certainly, some of the specific details are and will likely remain unknown.

What is *not* subject to debate are your lies in your recent posts. What do you believe it says about your visceral need to (let's be charitable) mindlessly parrot lies fed you by other, more clever deniers?
The 6 million figure is biblical,
Wrong.
it's been used by Zionist groups throughout history.
Even if true, irrelevant.
When it was discovered the Soviets lied about Auschwitz death count and it went from 4 million to 1.1 million...WHY didn't the figure change?
Well, first of all because it cannot be demonstrated that they lied, secondly because that figure was never accepted in the west and so never figured in any legitimate calculation of the death toll.
WHY is it still 6 million?
It's not. For example Hilberg, in "Destruction" (published in the early 60's) offered an estimate nearly a million under that. Your vaunted Hoess was "tortured" into citing a much lower figure while in custody and published in '58.

Again, you really should work on your game: you haven't even gotten to Khoury league as yet.
Why are so many people blindly going on faith alone? It's such an obvious lie that serves a religious purpose.
No, the lies you parrot serves your and others' hate.
And just on a quick note. Is there any thesis by an exterminationist here that shows how you can burn 5 100lb(45kg) bodies within 30 minutes?
Now that you mention it, yes. It has to do with the facts that more than one body was cremated at a time and that cremating a human body produces more heat that in takes to begin the process. In addition, bodies were introduced into the muffles before the previous load was completely burned, since modern-day niceties like keep the cremains separate did not apply.

Really, this is penny-ante stuff...
Gabbai said 4 bodies within 30-40 minutes while I think it's Van Pelt who says 5 bodies in his book. Having seen the ovens how the hell did they get so many bodies to fit in there?
You have not read either, nor have you seen the ovens.

You are also ignoring that many of the victims were women children whose bodies did not average 100 lbs.

Free hint #3: if you read about it on a denier site, the chances are very very good approaching certainty that it is crap.

I think exterminationist, in this context, refers to "people who believe that Jews were systematically and intentionally mass murdered by the Nazis." Also known as "the population of the Earth minus several dozen HD kooks." :boggled:

Thanks, I guessed that was he meant, but hoped that milkfox would define the word for me and tell me what the word means to him.

Please, define what they mean by terms? That will tie them to that definition then - much better to keep it unspoken then they can have it mean whatever they need to at that particular time.
 
Sometimes I wish the Dead Nazi Propaganda Campaign would offer actual new facts and arguments and not the same time debunked ones as if they were a sudden revelation. Makes you wonder if there is some forms of denier catechism. Maybe this is some baptism by fire? I wonder if the ones that keep faith despite contrary facts are lauded as true initiates.
 
Oddly, I don't think that "bodies per cubic metre" is all that difficult a unit of measurement to understand. Why do you have an issue with it?

That is what you think... I do not have any issue with an inaccurate standard which I do not use. The only ones having issues with “bodies per cubic metre” are the ones using it.
 
It's right there in your equation.

z = x (1 kg) (1/kg) (1 per cubic meter)

The (1 kg) (1/kg) terms cancel, leaving
z = x (1 per cubic meter)

i.e. x times (1 per cubic meter)

ETA: x times (1 per cubic meter) = "x per cubic meter"

There are not two mathematical expressions being evaluated. Moreover, 1 Kg and 1/Kg are both different variables in physical calculations.

Let’s verify the correct formula with the values from Holocaust Controversies:

z = (663.4Kg / 1m^3) / (34Kg / 1 * x)

z = (663.4Kg / 1m^3) / (34Kg / 1 * 1)

z = 19.512 m^-3

So, if a value is added to x, it results in inverse volume.

There is no “body per cubic meter” when density is divided by mass.

"X" in that formula isn't a variable, SnakeTongue. It's a unit. Like "Kg". It stands for bodies/corpses.
 
Exactly. The method is not bad if one applies it correctly, as you did not.

Unlike you, I'm always open to learning. And you did use it wrong.

The only thing you are open is to steal someone else’s method instead to you develop your own.

For the pleasure of stewing Mattogno in his own sauce, and because I didn't realize how rudimentary Mattogno's method is until confronted with the more precise method you misapplied.

Right, where has been your “open” mind since 2006 for a new mathematical approach on the subject? Suddenly, a method from an obscure user in the Internet which refutes your mathematical jolly play becomes what you were looking for...

A classic non-argument. Whether or not I can write down "basic mathematical formulations", it doesn't change the fact that the calculations I made on an Excel spreadsheet are correct and that they prove your calculations to be flawed.

Correct translations of mathematical formulas into Microsoft Excel do not prove the translated formula is wrong.

You have to write down the correct formula and indicate which variable or parameter is wrong.

(...) How come Provan's test group occupied less volume on average than the hypothetical test group with 3 adults à 43 kg and 5 children à 16 kg, even though the total and average weights of the latter test group were lower than those of the former? How come each adult and each child in the hypothetical test group occupies exactly the same volume in the test box according to your calculations, regardless of whether you double the weights, cut them in half or uniformly multiply them by or divide them through any given factor, as I demonstrated in this thread's post 2324?

I have already explained in the subsequent reply. You just ignored.

So, if a value is added to x, it results in inverse volume.

Oh, dear sweet FSM.

Did they ever teach you units?

Density is mass per volume. If you write it out as a = 1 gm/cm^3 (the density of water) and multiply THAT by 236 gm, then all you have to do is notice which units have canceled out. We have gm on both sides of the equation, therefor all that remains is volume. And I happily down my 236 cc's (one cup) of cool refreshing water.

If you DON'T include the units at all steps of your calculation, you are liable to screw it up and forget what your variables are implying. This is why in any science or engineering class if you start scribbling "1 * x" you are going to have your work corrected toot sweet.
 
It's right here, in your own calculation:

If the same unit of measurement is in the numerator and denominator, that unit cancels out, just as a numerical quantity would in an algebraic calculation. So kg*1/kg=1

It's confusing to write "corpses', a unit of measurement, as x, which is used to represent a numerical quantity. But I'll keep your notation.

So we have x * (Kg) * (Kg^-1) * (m^-3)=x/m^3

or corpses per cubic meter.

For more information on how calculations involving units of measurement work, see

http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/High_S...s_in_Chemistry#Using_Units_in_Problem_Solving

(...)

Also, SnakeTongue: A week or so ago, you said Roberto's calculation resulted in inverse length. Please lead us through you got that result if kg/kg doesn't equal 1.

Not if both values are different variables.

Kg / m^3 is mass per volume.

Kg / x is mass per variable value.

So, the only way to transform the measurement in common units is assume that x value is just 1:

z = (1Kg / 1m^3) / (1Kg / 1 * x)

z = (1Kg / 1m^3) / (1Kg / 1 * 1)

z = 1Kg / 1m^3 / 1Kg

z = 1 / 1m^3

The one is not a “body”, but a consequence of a Kg per a Kg, which in arithmetical terms the result must be 1 to represent the numerator in meters per cubic meter:

1x / 1y / 1x

1 / y

Not this:

0x / 1y

0

So the final result is inverse volume:

z = m^-3

Anytime we have to do a calculation, it is important to include the units along with the actual numbers. (...) The g/L unit allows you to know it needs to be "grams divided by liters".

(...) Just as with numbers, units can be divided out when that specific unit appears in the numerator as well as the denominator.

(...) You can't subtract meters from kilometers without first converting the measurements into common units. Always check a measurement’s units to make sure that they are appropriate for a given calculation.

Why on earth would kg/person not be a valid unit of measurement simply because the individuals in question are dead? Eurostat, to take just one example, uses it. In general, per capita measures are commonly used in a large number of social science disciplines.

Between 1996-97 and 2006-07, the volume of waste produced per person in Australia grew at an average annual rate of 5.4%. In 1996-97, Australians generated approximately 1,200kg of waste per person. By 2006-07, this had increased to 2,100kg per person.

http://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs@...t/1370.0~2010~Chapter~Waste per person (6.6.3)​

That is an unusual measurement for waste generated per every person, not a unit to determine the mass of a given body.

Snake -- you are either;

A) Doing math really funny, or;

B) Doing math really funny because you believe you need to be didactic; that is to say, you are doing poor kindergarten math because you believe everyone else in the thread is mathematically illiterate.

If it is the latter, why not stop for a moment, assume that other people also have a clue, and present your arguments in something resembling modern syntax?
 
Not if both values are different variables.

Again, "X" is not a variable in that calculation. It's a unit!

Kg / m^3 is mass per volume.

No, it's kilograms per cubic meter. The number of kilograms and the number of cubic meters are variable, but the kilograms and cubic meter notations themselves are not variable.

Kg / x is mass per variable value.

No, it's kilograms per corpse. The number of kilograms and the number of corpses are variable, but the kilograms and corpse notations themselves are not variable.

So, the only way to transform the measurement in common units is assume that x value is just 1:

No. This is where you're going wrong, and why the Wolfram Alpha output does not mean what you think it means.

z = (1Kg / 1m^3) / (1Kg / 1 * x)

z = (1Kg / 1m^3) / (1Kg / 1 * 1)

"X", in this equation, cannot be replaced by a number, any more than "Kg" can be replaced by a number, or "m^3" can be replaced by a number.

z = (663.4Kg / 1m^3) / (34Kg / 1 * x) cannot be transformed into z = (663.4Kg / 1m^3) / (34Kg / 1 * 1). Because 1 x ("one corpse") is already 1.

The only reason "Kg" disappears from the result is because the two unit measurements cancel each other out. M^3 does not get canceled out, and so appears in the result. "Corpses" also does not get canceled out, and should also appear in the result.

The one is not a “body”, but a consequence of a Kg per a Kg, which in arithmetical terms the result must be 1 to represent the numerator in meters per cubic meter:

1x / 1y / 1x

1/y

Not this:

0x / 1y

0

So the final result is inverse volume:

z = 1/m^3

This part is just sheer nonsense.

Look:

Wolfram Alpha reads your input of "X" as a variable, and screws up your calculation. Fortunately, it contains some other unit notations that can be used to show where you went wrong. For example, B.

If we make B the unit notation for "corpse" instead of "X", and plug that into Wolfram Alpha, like so:

z = (663.4Kg / 1m^3) / (34Kg / 1 B)

We get the proper result:

z = 19.512 B/m^3

That Wolfram Alpha thinks B is actually "bytes" is irrelevant, since it's just a word used as a unit notation. Replace it with any unit notation in Wolfram Alpha, and you'll get the exact same result.

Bels, for instance:

z = 19.512 B/m^3

Oort constants:

z = 19.512 B/m^3

Deciblintzes:

z = 19.512 db/m^3

Knots:

z = 19.512 knots/m^3

Years:

z = 19.512 years/m^3

Radians:

z = 19.512 radians/m^3



If Wolfram Alpha actually recognized "corpses" as a unit notation, it would give the exact same result. The equation would be entered in as

z = (663.4 Kg / 1 m^3) / (34 Kg / 1 corpse)

And would be output, just like in all the above examples, as

z = 19.512 corpses/m^3

Understand, SnakeTongue?
