Vlad signed on to this shit fairly recent. (2014). And opportunistically added "wittingly spreading false information about the activity of USSR during WW11."

I'm sure that's a comfort to all the dead in the Katyn forest.

My point: If you are in defense of free speech then you should be able to say "I do not believe the holocaust occurred" without being subjected to imprisonment.

Thought policing whether by the Iranian mullahs or the German parliament is utterly objectionable.
In this age of fake news spread by bots I'm becoming a bit less sure of that.

Here laws against Holocaust denials are on the books primarily in Euro countries and Russia. Notable exception Britain and Spain. Spain had a change of heart.

Russia: Denying Nazi crimes and or portraying Nazis as heroes and spreading false information on the activities of the USSR re WW11.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laws_a...locaust_denial

BTW note the stiff penalties that were actually imposed.
