When the community left Reddit, did it just stop giving a shit about gaming?
To my eye this all looks identical to Gab and Voat and Poal and maybe even late-era Saidit. All sites where the general opinion is that video games are for faggots.

Yeah, there are. Stuff like "I was put in a cage with an eagle and a bear" or "I walked backwards and they let me go" or "I was transferred six times between death camps". Minecarts that tipped prisoners into incinerators. Masturbation machines. There are exactly as many first-person accounts as there are people who survived to collect free money from the state for the rest of their natural lives.
What there is not is actual reports, orders, or objective evidence. Which is weird because their encryption was cracked nearly three years before the end of the war and, wouldn't you know it, the Allies never intercepted anything about specifically eradicating the prison population, or any identifiable population, for that matter. The reports we do have, like Red Cross inspections of the camps, indicate both that the numbers were exagerated by an order of magnitude and that there was no specific attempt at extermination. This is supported by the fact that nowhere near 6 million bodies were recovered and it is logistically impossible for them to have been completely destroyed. Oh, and every single "death camp", as opposed to regular POW camp, was liberated by the Soviet Union, then being run by (((Bolshevik))) communists who just happened to be the first country in the world to criminalise anti-semetism...
There are also horrifying pictures, several of which weren't fabricated after the fact, of hordes of starving prisoners. In "death camps". Because, apparently, they were sitting around for months waiting their turn. Must be that legendary German efficiency... Or maybe the Allies bombed the supply lines to the POW camps months before liberating them?
You seem to be operating under the impression that we're speaking out of ignorance. In reality, I was saying exactly what you are saying now not 10 years ago. I changed my mind because of new facts that had been kept from me, not because I'm missing info or can't reason.
I have little doubt that the reason you "can't for the life of me figure out" why we don't agree with you has more to do with your ignorance than ours.
Assuming you aren't just a bad faith shill, which I'm not yet convinced of. But given you use such a normie argument, I suppose it's possible you're being sincere.
Untrue. Dick Winters, Don Malarkey, and Babe Heffron are three of the most famous counterexamples. They were three of the men who liberated a Dachau subcamp as part of their service with Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division. They gave specific and consistent details about the hellscape they saw there. So you think they're all fucking liars?
Let me get this straight. So a bunch of Americans showed up at the end of a war, the guards had long since dispersed, supply lines had been crippled for months and you're surprised they found starving people? Show me some pictures of this hellscape they describe. Not just starving husks as expected.
How fortunate, because when the Russians liberated these places they started building unattached chimneys as fast as they could.
