What is Holocaust revisionism?

Holocaust revisionism is a controversial and largely discredited movement that seeks to deny or minimize the established facts of the Holocaust, the systematic genocide of six million Jews and millions of others by the Nazi regime during World War II. Revisionists often claim that the events were exaggerated or fabricated, utilizing pseudoscientific arguments and selective interpretations of historical evidence. This movement is widely condemned as a form of antisemitism and historical denialism, as it contradicts extensive documentation, testimonies, and research by historians. Holocaust revisionism is often linked to extremist ideologies and has been rejected by credible scholars and institutions.
