They made it illegal in most Western countries to claim that the Holocaust never happened. Whenever a nutso nazi crawled out from under a rock to claim that the Holocaust never happened that was a great opportunity for people to be educated about the Holocaust, Auschwitz, Dachau, etc.

However, the mere suggestion that the Holocaust was a fraud got SJWs' panties in a bunch so they outlawed such talk. Now nobody talks about the Holocaust and lots of people have either forgotten or never knew.

Talk about the law of unintended consequences!

I’m pretty sure it was not an unintended consequence.

It’s illegal in several Western countries to merely object to “official” narratives about the Holocaust.

The truth...even as defined by the Holocaust Museum in Israel...is not a defense.

Oh, yes. That was the problem when Germany outlawed Mein Kampf as well. I know why they did it but there turned out to be a price to pay.

Quite a few people old enough to have found out the truth are very disturbed at the resemblance between the current academic anti-White Male hate campaign and that of the Nazis against the Jews during the 30's and 40's. Even overt antisemitism is back in style. What the Jews learned then was that the rule of law won't protect you if the state declines to enforce it on the basis of some "higher" social justice aim, which is precisely what the Nazis claimed to be after. The means to that end were staggeringly evil.
