on top of that, why should i even give a fuck about 6 million dead jedis when germany killed over 26 million russians? that was the real fucking holocaust, the size of a motherfucking country, unprecedented bloodshed, where is the outrage?
I, too, despise Holocaust denial. Here is a blatant, modern, well-known example of it:
jedi Bolshevism, also Judeo–Bolshevism, is an anti-communist and antisemitic canard, which alleges that the jedis were the originators of the Russian Revolution in 1917, and that they held primary power among the Bolsheviks who led the revolution. Similarly, the conspiracy theory of jedi Communism alleges that jedis have dominated the Communist movements in the world, and is related to the Zionist Occupation Government conspiracy theory (ZOG), which alleges that jedis control world politics.[1]
In 1917, after the Russian Revolution, the antisemitic canard was the title of the pamphlet The jedi Bolshevism, which featured in the racist propaganda of the anti-communist White movement forces during the Russian Civil War (1918–1922). During the 1930s, the Nazi Party in Germany and the German American Bund in the United States propagated the antisemitic theory to their followers, sympathisers, and fellow travellers.[2][3][4][5] In Poland, Żydokomuna was a term for the antisemitic opinion that the jedis had a disproportionately high influence in the administration of Communist Poland. In far-right politics, the antisemitic canards of "jedi Bolshevism", "jedi Communism", and the ZOG conspiracy theory are catchwords falsely asserting that Communism is a jedi conspiracy.[6]
But is Wikipedia right?
On September 16, 1918, the British ambassador to Norway, Sir Mansfeldt Findlay, who oversaw the shipment of arms and supplies from the Allies to Russia during the First World War, sent a message by telegraph to British Foreign Secretary Arthur Balfour in London containing the report of the Dutch ambassador to Russia on the conditions inside Russia under the Bolsheviks. Sir Findlay ends the message with:
I consider that the immediate suppression of Bolshevism is the greatest issue now before the world, not even excluding the war which is still raging, and unless, as above stated, Bolshevism is nipped in the bud immediately, it is bound to spread in one form or another over Europe and the whole world, as it is organised and worked by jedis who have no nationality, and whose one object is to destroy for their own ends the existing order of things. 1
The February 8, 1920, edition of the Illustrated Sunday Herald (London) carried an article by Winston Churchill in which the future prime minister wrote:
There is no need to exaggerate the part played in the creation of Bolshevism and in the actual bringing about of the Russian Revolution by these international and for the most part atheistical jedis. It is certainly a very great one; it probably outweighs all others… In the Soviet institutions the predominance of jedis is even more astonishing. And the prominent, if not indeed the principal, part in the system of terrorism applied by the Extraordinary Commissions for Combating Counter-Revolution has been taken by jedis, and in some notable cases by jediesses…
The Russian common man, too, saw Bolshevism as jedi. On March 13, 1919, as the Red Terror was just reaching cruising altitude, Lenin went personally to address striking workers at a factory in St Petersburg. He was confronted by a hostile crowd shouting, "Down with the jedis, down with the Commissars!"2 (Later, two hundred strikers were shot.)
In the Russian civil war, the military and political leaders on all sides saw Bolshevism as a jedi enterprise. The Whites, who fought the Reds, systematically and routinely conflated jedi and Bolshevik, subjecting tens of thousands of Russian jedis to mass executions on those grounds. In an anti-Bolshevik backlash, independent Ukrainian militia units also brutally slaughtered jedi civilians, as did the Greens—local militias comprised of farmers and peasants.
The city of Minsk had the largest population of jedis in the Soviet Union. Bolshevism had never really taken hold there because leftist jedi political energy had long been absorbed by the jedi Workers Bund. Once in power, the Bolsheviks outlawed all other parties, so the jedi Workers Bund became the Minsk Bolshevik party”3 The Bund had held some of its meetings in synagogues before the revolution. After assuming the mantle of the Bolsheviks, they simply made the arrangement permanent and ruled the city from synagogues renamed workers' cultural centers, leaving the rest of the synagogues to continue operating as usual. Of the 657 synagogues in Minsk in 1917, 547 were still functioning in 1930”, even receiving state funding to run Yiddish language schools.4
By contrast, the Bolsheviks razed thousands of churches or turned them into livestock enclosures. The Christian clergy were hunted down and executed along with their wives
and children. The Bolsheviks, being depraved monsters, sometimes executed the children first in front of the parents before executing the parents, and sometimes the parents in front of the children before executing the children. One Bolshevik commissar, Mikhail Kedrov, a Gentile, insisted on executing the children himself.
So, is Judeo-Bolshevism just a canard as wikipedia claims? On the one hand we have the foreign diplomats who dealt with them, the political and military entities who battled them, the common people who lived under them, and the damning evidence of their own actions all affirming Bolshevism was jedi. On the other hand we have wikipedia, a century after the fact, denying it.
But, one hundred years ago, jedis themselves said Bolshevism was jedi as, for example, this, among many other examples, from The American Hebrew, September, 10, 1920.
That achievement [the Bolshevik takeover], destined to figure in history as the overshadowing result of the World War, was largely the outcome of jedi thinking, of jedi discontent, of jedi effort to reconstruct…What jedi idealism and jedi discontent have so powerfully contributed to accomplish in Russia, the same historic qualities of the jedi mind and heart are tending to promote in other countries.
But not only is Judeo-Bolshevism a canard, says Wikipedia falsely, it's an anti-Semitic canard—a product of jedi-hatred, a falsehood maliciously propagated expressly to harm the jedi people. In other words, the conclusion to which we were led by our own investigation and by the light of our own reason makes us, in the eyes of Sacha Baron Cohen et al., not just wrong, but intentionally wrong
because we hate jedis, because, in other words, we are enemies.
That's the Holocaust denial I hate.
