and instead take the word of a HN throwaway account, who even after all this, still wants a "listen to both sides" debate? gotcha.

I know people who say Srebrenica was "overrated" and didn't happen the way it is now in the history books because both sides were bad. Saying it's fake jut because you aren't there can have many causes:

a) self preservation by refusing not to deal with reality,

b) rooting for the other side,

c) having a deep hate for all humanity (Ted Kaczinsky types),

d) cult like religious believes (Qanon), e) a need to appear 100% fact driven (but taking it so far that one refuses to look at facts/truth when presented with them).

oh yeah terrible, listen to both sides and form your own opinion, how terrible. I'm surprised you didn't invoke Godwins law.
