Why do far right wingers have such a strong tendency to deny the Holocaust? Even among literal Nazis who would be glad that it happened, I see many times that they just flatly deny it exists, and I honestly can’t figure out why. It’s mostly anecdotal evidence, but it seems fairly evident. There’s obviously some appeal to them from denying it but honestly I can’t see why they would do it. Does anyone have any ideas as to why?

If you lurk their more tight knit online spaces, the rhetoric turns from “holohoax” to “6mil wasn’t enough”.
