It's fucking ridiculous that "moment of silence for the Holocaust" is still a thing. No one alive today knows any Holocaust "victims" or "survivors" (not counting the fakers who keep cropping up). It was 80 years ago. Do we hold a moment of silence for the people of Nanking? What about the people of Hiroshima and Nagasaki? What about the victims of Soviet collectivization? What about the Armenians? These are all people who were victimized AND most of society today is uncomfortable or apologetic for their victimization. Why don't they get moments of silence? Because moments of silence are for contemporary events, not historical events. It's time to move on.
