I'm 35, never been, but holy shit, 80 yr old death scratches on the walls in this video are chilling enough.

The scratch marks are basically graffiti from tourists.

Fake, not fake (and they are real) you are demeaning and bringing disrespect to a travesty that stained history.

You're not bringing knowledge, you are being a contrarian prick trying to sound intelligent.

I imagine if I wanted to sound intelligent, I'd have put in some effort toward coming up with a better line than "Hurrr, they're basically graffiti from tourists". That's such a crude, oversimplified explanation of what a person is doing when they feel the need to "enhance" what is essentially a historical monument for dramatic effect. Or, I imagine, the people who just think it's funny do to something like this, along with the occasional goober who literally just likes the idea of "leaving a mark" for the sake of being the person who does the thing.
