Yeah, I got that from the Economist/Yougov survey.

20% of people under 30 strongly agree or tend to agree that the Holocaust it is a myth.

I have no idea what to do with this shit either. The most concerning thing to me is that lots of younger folks have the impressive long-term thinking to understand that our collective futures are fucked if we don't get the climate under control, but seem to be incapable of learning lessons from history. Nazis = bad and Holocaust = it happened, doesn't seem too hard to internalize. The camps are still there for fuck's sake. I realize I'm painting with a broad brush, but I'm not sure how else to explain these numbers.
