The United Nations General Assembly yesterday adopted by consensus a Resolution (full text) that condemns Holocaust denial or distortion. The Resolution, among other things, calls attention to the role of social media in spreading disinformation and misinformation. A United Nations press release announcing the Resolution points out:
The vote comes on the same day, 80 years ago, during the Wansee Conference, when top Nazi officials discussed and coordinated the genocide of the Jewish people, establishing the system of Nazi death camps.
According to The Hill, Iran "disassociated" from the Resolution.
