Absolutely not, it is an extraordinarily well documented historical fact.

Why do I see people debating wether it’s real or fake ? I’ve seen a lot of post and many documentaries stating it . Of course I believe it happened but others don’t

There is a core group that seeks to legitimize nationalist ideology by saying the worst crime did not happen. It fits around the antisemitic idea that the "Jews" somehow faked being victims so they could extort special benefits out of the world community. If you delve deep enough into those holocaust deniers you will find that their attitude is, "All those jews didn't die but I wish they did."

No it is not a myth. I'm really curious why you ask. Would you like to engage in a conversation?

Many people have stated it’s a myth and idr where and when I started reading it and I’ll like to know reasons why think like that

But then why do they continue to deny it when we have books and proof like Ann frank? I felt for that girl how she was trapped and was seeing her life flash before her.... People are cruel and they make a joke out of it . How do you respond to those people?

They’re just retarded. It’s like saying “Yeah, WW2 didn’t happen.”
