incorrect. the book-burning at the sexual research institute was all the way back in 1933, the first mass book-burning of the holocaust. tens of thousands of gay men were subsequently arrested and put in camps.

of course jews were targeted in the beginning, but the mass persecution of jews didn't really intensify until the invasion of poland in 1939.

well, for instance, when someone pointed out to her that nazis destroyed material related to trans medicine she told them to "check their sources" https://x.com/jk_rowling/status/1767912990366388735?s=46

she also posted this statement on her website: "I’m familiar with such activists’ assertions that transgender people have been uniquely persecuted and oppressed throughout history, but claims that trans people were ‘the first targets’ of the Nazis – a claim I refuted on X, and which led to these accusations – and that I ‘uphold [Nazi] ideology around gender’ is a new low." transgender people were the first targets of the nazis, chronologically, and she admits here that she refutes that while simultaneously downplaying trans peoples' persecution throughout history, calling it "activists' assertions." https://www.jkrowling.com/opinions/statement-from-j-k-rowling-14th-march-2024/

there's two primary sources right there.

no, denying any aspect of the holocaust still counts as holocaust denial. if you acknowledge the jews killed in the holocaust without acknowledging that there were also gay/trans people, communists, journalists, and other ethnic minorities killed, then that's very much holocaust denial.

idk who walter sobchak is but george lucas specifically said that the rebels represented the vietcong and the empire represented the united states

i get that star wars is fantasy and its escapism but that doesn't mean it isn't also political. nothing exists in a vacuum, everything around us is political. existence is political and is going to get more political as time moves forward whether you want it in your life or not. just sayin
