It blows younger people's minds, when I mention my grandmother spent time in a concentration camp.
Why aren't they learning about it in school like I did?
I'd like to see a more gradual break down of who doesn't know what. That range is uselessly large. I'd also like to know how the timelines match up with the rise in standardized testing.
edit: Found the study. At least I think I did. I didn't even see a mention of Gen Z. Just comparing Millennials and All Adults.
Imo Holocaust denial really seemed to ramp up as most Millennials were growing up.
Not im not too sure what all Gen Z thinks of it, but I definitely remember a lot of articles and write ups in the early 2000s about how parents were teaching kids innacurate facts or even that it just didn't happen.
