> "The holocaust never happened"

Not really an opinion but it can be a belief. I'm not sure why we are okay with people believing that Earth is ~6000 years old, but not with someone believing that we are in a simulation and everything before e.g. year 1999 is just a collective memory fabrication.



I am not "okay" with either belief, but it's not my place to police other people's beliefs - so long as they don't hurt others.

If you want to visit that idiotic Noah's Ark museum, go.

If you want to prohibit teaching about evolution in schools, go to hell.

Yes. You can believe this fact to be false but you might also be lying. How do you show this? By showing why you believe it to be false
