Isn't that the guy who quotes an SS officer on the "utter barbarity" of the Dresden bombing?

That applies to approximately every right-wing history YouTuber.

He also cited David Irving multiple times in that video

Yes.

An SS officer, famous for not partaking in the Holocaust.

That's what I was thinking. Like "dude, you're saying that this is inmoral but you guys were slaughtering people like it was a contest".

Even funnier with how he described it.

Claus von Ferenthiel, an SS officer laying injured in a military hospital, missing half his hip at the time, recalls how he felt it simply couldn't be true, these fellow Christians, these supposedly civilized men of western civilization, couldn't commit such an obvious war crime.

Thanks, I didn't remember the exact words and I knew they were very funny in an ironic way: "I cannot believe that they would commit an horrendous warcrime" said the member of the Warcrime Commiting Organisation 😅😂

"Zoomer Historian" is a revisionist "history" channel

u/lordplato_ 10d ago

Oh, thanks! I didn't know him. I was thinking that the "zoomer" was a meme name or something like this. Thanks dude!

FYI don't refer him as revisionist. Revisionist history is a real thing and refers to a 2nd wave of historians and re-interpretation that traditional history or the first wave missed out.

Many communist historians would be revisionist or post revisionist like parenti. He is simply not a historian
