"Ceux qui nient Auschwitz seraient prêts à le refaire."
— Primo Levi

Simplified Meaning:
When someone claims that the Holocaust did not happen, it often means they could be capable of allowing such terrible events to happen again. Denying history can be dangerous because it means ignoring the lessons we should learn from it. Imagine if a person refuses to believe a fire destroyed a house. They might not take fire safety seriously and could make the same mistakes that led to the fire. Similarly, if people deny the horrors of Auschwitz, they might not work to prevent such cruelty in the future. It’s important to remember and acknowledge past atrocities to ensure they never happen again. By understanding and accepting history, we can create a safer and more just world.
