If you were outraged about the Mein Kampf post on IG on #InternationalHolocaustRemembranceDay, but you continue to use "Zionist" in a derogatory manner, especially towards Jews, your outrage is performative af.

Monday was #InternationalHolocaustRemembranceDay & a week after, ya know, feels heavy.
Quoting our PM:
“As social media & those who control platforms seek to distort the horrors of the Holocaust... it is now more important than ever to remember... the hate & cruelty”

Yesterday (Jan 27) was the 80th Anniversary of the Liberation of Auschwitz & The #InternationalHolocaustRemembranceDay. The Holocaust was one of the darkest chapters in human history when 6 million Jews and millions of others were killed. #WeRemember them & pass on their stories so we never forget.

80 years ago, the Red Army liberated Auschwitz. They took possession of thousands of so-called prisoner registration cards. With your help, we hope to digitize 27,000 of these documents in the days around #InternationalHolocaustRemembranceDay. arolsen-archives.org/en/news/ever...

Never again. That has to mean something more than a slogan used to feel good about condemning a distant genocide it costs nothing to condemn.

Today should be a reminder that we need to fight fascism in all its forms.

#FreePalestine
#NoOneIsIllegalOnStolenLand

January 27th is International Holocaust Remembrance Day
On this day, Remember the over 22 million souls.
On this day, Remember the over 22 million souls who fell victim to hate under the Nazi regime.
Remember those who were slaughtered simply
for being who they were.
Remember the approximately
• 6 million Jews (1.5 million of whom were children)
• 1.5 million Romani
• 1.9 million non-Jewish Polish civilians
• More than 310,000 Serbian civilians
• 300,000 disabled people (including at least 10,000 children)
• 55,000 gay men and uncounted queer and trans people.

May their rest be more peaceful than their ends and may their memory be a blessing.
This day is an important reminder of what once was and what should never be again.

Never Forget.
Never Again.

Today was #InternationalHolocaustRemembranceDay and the fact that the American right has been so gleefully co-opted by the very people whose defeat was the touchstone of patriotism in the 20th century is just so exceedingly grim. They're quite good at propaganda, as well.

My heart is heavy today. I fear we may not be able to change the hearts of minds of humanity to care for others.
But we can honor those who were selfless enough to fight for our existence. May we carry their bravery.

REMEMBER: #InternationalHolocaustRemembranceDay today, the 80th anniversary of the liberation at the #AuschwitzBirkenau Nazi death camps and gas chambers in WWII. Remember 6 million Jews and all who died at evil hands—words of hate, attacks, roundups, torture, death. #NeverAgain

Auschwitz Memorial @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social · Jan 27

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers.

This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder.

Auschwitz took time.

A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.
