Why do we always hear six million for the Holocaust?

The other prominant victims of the holocaust remember all to well.

Remembering the Gay Holocaust.

The Roma have never had a voice and still are persecuted... they remember, but they have never had much of an audience.

Sinti and Roma in the Holocaust

Thank goodness others don't choose to forget or ignore. Thank you for the information.

I think it is because a lot of Jews own the media, so they talk about the Holocaust and remind people of it. I don't think the other peoples want to forget or ignore the genocides that happened to them, it is only that the media does not cover those.

Anti-semite horseshit!

I expected such a reaction but you are wrong, I am not anti-semite. I have nothing against Jews, they are people like everyone, good and bad.

Why should the Jews talk about other people's genocides, it is only reasonable and logical what I said.

Cello, name a media organization owned by Jews.

The Hearst family owns a group of newspapers.

What I said about the Jews controlling the media, I just heard but never bothered to check because as I said, I have nothing against the Jews. But since you asked me, littlek, I just googled and this is the first link I got:

http://www.compuserb.com/mediain1.htm

I did not read the whole article, just scanned quickly. These are facts. I don't see why we have to deny the facts. Facts are not good or bad or anti-semitic, they are just facts.

Yowza! The person who wrote that article obviously has something against Jews even if you don't. Using that type of reference doesn't help your case.

I think you are subscribing to the popular misconception that Jews own the U.S. media. Don't believe me, just look up who owns the major media. I'm not talking about New York newspapers. I mean the big networks.

In my opinion, allowing the masses to believe that Jews are continually lamenting about the six million Jews exterminated in the Holocaust serves the purpose of maintaining a certain level of discomfort with Jews in general. And this keeps them in their place, so to speak; in effect, being "just too different" to fit in completely (as the person promoted, as the person hired, as the person accepted for membership to wherever). In other words, Jews can live comfortably in the U.S., as long as they have a utility: school teacher, doctor, dentist, accountant. But, not the "fat cat" positions. So, the image of Holocaust bellyacher marginalizes them.

The U.S. is a country where many groups are competing for a slice of the pie. Jews tend to be good competitors, I believe, when the criteria are good marks, above average IQ, eagerness, implementing new ideas. Allowing them to maintain the "annoying image" of Holocaust bellyachers makes them less able to compete in a "team oriented" society, where "fitting in" is more important than SAT scores. Was this effected premeditatedly; I personally don't think so, but I can't believe all non-Jews are not aware of the marginalization in society that this image causes.

And, if one wants another possible reason for allowing Jews to continue to get Holocaust lament time in the media: it might just be keeping a certain country in Europe from getting obstreperous, without letting that country feel that strong feelings from WWII didn't fade away. "It's those Jews causing the bad publicity, obviously." In effect, Jews wind up doing a service for some countries in Europe today, since as members of the EU, all these countries have to give the impression that all of Europe is united and old feelings are gone.

Does anyone find it interesting that just when white ethnics (I've branched out beyond Jews now) were sending their children to college, in large numbers, along comes a concern over minority quotas? Does this have a way to keep those white ethnics down the proverbial rungs on the ladder? The timing is just coincidental, I'm sure.

So much of society's popular beliefs are just so much propaganda, I believe, as a holdover perhaps from an earlier era. Like certain groups have been called lazy, shiftless, unintelligent, drunkards, etc., etc. All canards. All lies. But, was once part of the standard popular beliefs.

But, so many people are really so comfortable with these popular myths. Even when they know they're lies. I wonder why???

Did you notice at the bottom of that link was this:

Serbian Defense League
exposing Zionism and anti-Goyism
www.SerbianDefenseLeague.com

Apparently, even when a media outlet is owned by a Gentile, a Jew was mentioned as the person in charge. Could it be possible that wealthy, powerful Gentiles feel a Jew will be more loyal to him than a fellow Gentile? I suspect many Gentiles either don't trust other Gentiles, or they believe a Jew gets the job done. Don't blame Jews for that.

Hey, Jesus was/is a Jew. Should we consider the New Testament as Jewish media?

By the way, I have no idea why Serbia has a need to "expose Zionism and anti-Goyism" (Goy means Gentile in Yiddish)?

But, I don't believe you subscribe to the correct definition of anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism is just when one thinks Jews/Jewish people are DIFFERENT. So, pointing out that there are so many Jews involved with the media must mean something is wrong (like WASP's in the defense industry?).

Let me explain why there are so many Jews in Hollywood. Less than 100 years ago, when movies were in its infancy, no one knew if this new technology would bomb out. So, you guessed it, Jews were allowed to "risk" their capital in this new venture. And, it did pan out, to many people's surprise. Notice how now that film is such a money maker, many Gentile producers have entered the industry. Jews, in effect, are allowed to be the risk taking innovators, but once it is a money-maker, expect Gentiles to join. (For the secular person, Christianity could even be an example of this.)

Have you ever noticed how WASP's are in industries that don't involve risking their capital? All old industries, no risks involved.

Yes, Jews are allowed to risk their capital on new ventures, since if they lose their shirts, few will be concerned.

oh jesus mary and joseph. the whole world is one big conspiracy, isn't it.

plus, who says that others (than Jews) that perished in concentration camps are forgotten? certainly not! there are so many oral history projects, documents, books, memorials, other materials documenting the Roma holocaust (I worked on one myself) and of gays and political opponents... Plenty of materials out there for those who want to find them.

I think you're understanding. You may rise.

it was a sarcastic comment. and i don't need permissions to rise or otherwise.

Then don't blapheme. Some of us could be atheists.

Foofie, the religious banter will likely be going over Dagmaraka's head as she hasn't a religious bone in her body.

well if you were indeed an atheist, you wouldn't give a damn about blasphemy.

i'm a heathen. was born one, will die one. got anything better up your sleeve?

The number of those who died due o the Holocaust may by 12 million or even more.

However, I haven't notice that the other victim groups were silent.

If this seems to be so e.g. in the USA, it may be reasoned in the not so broad "international" news sections as well as Americans don't seem to be interested what happens outside their homeland besides it is more than just tangented.
