The same could be said about Auschwitz right up until the Allies breached its gates and found the skeletons. People (even Jews) believed it was just an isolated Jewish living community where they’d have a happy life separated from the “Aryan Race”.

    source? i’m seeing that straight-to-death was known since 1940 (mere months after Auschwitz was built), the polish government published the conditions in 1942, and the ICEC knew by 1943. through the same ways we knew about Auschwitz is how we have reports from Uyghur and none of them mention Auschwitz mass-killings. we can recognize atrocities without said atrocities being as bad as Auschwitz
