It all started with a holocaust meme (yes, really); [see my tl;dr explanation post](https://scored.co/c/ConsumeProduct/p/199hzPBylE/reformed-boomers-are-losing-it-s/c/4ZGTvL45WMb).
Some of the rifts caused by this will be permanent, all because the holohoax is being mistaken for a Christian tenet.
The German pastor is Tobias Riemenschneider, covered in [this timeline breakdown on Twitter](https://twitter.com/TheJollyBrawler/status/1856010534799507467).
Tobias's inaugural Kingdom Talk episode [Right Response to Joel Webbon](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWDa_VUzKF8) is one long criticism of Joel's response to the churchgoer's 'sin'. It's a very strange 'influencer'-style format where Tobias watches the video of Joel and then pauses to comment or criticise. If Tobias had brought Joel onto the show as a guest this could have been a very interesting episode (if they both kept their cool), but instead it's this weird one-sided attack better reserved for actual heretics.
Eschatology Matters took down the episode soon after and [issued an apology](https://twitter.com/Eschatology22/status/1851753381410349216).
In fairness to Tobias, being a German means he's shackled with the Original Sin of Holobunga from birth.
The downside of enshrining the hoax as a core pillar of Germanness is the hordes of new arrivals who are 100% guilt-free (even if it really did happen). [The fight for Germany’s ‘memory culture’](https://archive.is/En033):
> in a country where one in four citizens hails from an immigrant community, can the Holocaust — and Germany’s postwar reaction to the Holocaust — really remain a political guiding light, let alone a component of national identity, for all?

Wasn't there also some shenanigans with Joel Webbon and a German pastor?
