There is an element of modern Reform Jewry that has made the Shoa (and victimization) the central tenant of a psuedo-secular religion.
It’s like inverse-zionism or something.

It goes far beyond that. They've made Auschwitz into the new Sinai, the basis of post-modern, "politically correct" morality, and a higher, newer, and superior covenant to the one made at Sinai.
They've turned Jewish history into an anti-Semitic (lehavdil) "passion play" in which the Jews suffer, die, and are buried in order to redeem the world from religion. They've turned the ashes of the Qedoshim into the seed of a new, post-Theistic moral/ethical system. Of course, these are the people who think the "palestinians" are the (lehavdil) "Qedoshim" of our day.
Think about it for a moment. The survival of the Jewish People should be a major bit of evidence for the existence of the Jewish G-d, but the atheists have inverted that precisely. Instead Jewish survival has been turned into a symbol of "the undying human spirit" in its war with "religious obscurantism" and the Jews have been changed from the People of G-d to "the people religion couldn't kill."
