[Thread of [Threads]] As many other #Twitterstorians have done, here is a compilation of my threads. And, since @KevinMKruse has upped the ante, I have tried to organize them in some meaningful way. Hopefully they will be of interest to some!

Hi! Holocaust historian here. Let me see if I can help. That wasn't a "weird salute." It was a Hitler salute. Because Elon is a fucking Nazi. Hope that helps!

Hi, Holocaust historian here! The word "Shoah" refers solely to the genocide of the Jewish people. The word "Holocaust" is, typically, much more inclusive of all victims of systematic Nazi persecution...including gay and trans people. Hope that helps!

I’m sad for young people today. Remember when families could enjoy the Olympics together and celebrate excellence in sports?

Could you imagine if the Nazis bombed all the homes of the people they suspected were hiding Jews?
Readers added context
Nazi Germany did have laws on the books, that anybody in the General Governorate for the Occupied Polish Region could be punished by death for aiding Jews in hiding. The punishment was enforced many times encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/tim… library.fes.de/pdf-files/hist…
