Thus making this the third topic about this, unless you've got me on Ignore. (I mean all you folks gotta do is type rowling into the search bar, goodness knows I did)

Anyway...

To me this looks like at worst, ignorance of a specific event, and at best, she was just calling out the dude for making a massive reach when placing her opinion. I don't think she denies the Holocaust outright.

This is the end result of her presuming that any information about the history of trans people delivered by someone who dislikes her must in fact be a lie or extremely exaggerated or taken out of context simply due to the nature of the source presenting it. She ended up being flatly wrong.

To tack on top of that, she engaged in several further bad faith tweets, not to retract her original statement about believing trans persecution by the Nazis was a "fever dream", but instead to move the goalposts and imply that she was still "right" only very tangentially by proxy by tacking on extra conditions.

What comes of a life on Twitter of trying to "one-up" someone else, in this case, ends in denial of an event that occurred in the Holocaust.

That is, in fact, Holocaust denial.

You don't have to say "it didn't happen" to be a denier. Saying "it wasn't all that bad" or in this case "those people weren't targeted (despite there being evidence they were)" is still denial.
