    I’m no expert on French politics, but from a quick search I’m not finding any sources on him being a holocaust denier. The fact that the OP calls Dieudonne, the comedian famous for making an irreverent pineapple joke about how Zionists weaponise the holocaust, one makes me cautious they are just accusing him of that for being anti-zionist. If anything he seems like a French infrared.

      Looking through their (Reddit OP’s) post history they’re anti-cop and pro Zapistatas so maybe they’re an anarcho-zionist dipshit but seems unlikely.

      I have no idea what “Infrared” is but contextually and based on your comment I imagine some sort of antizionist youtuber. Not so with Dieudonné; he is antisemitic, it’s not even a debate.

      He did shows with Faurisson, an actual holocaust denier that pretends that gas chambers didn’t exist. He had, in one of his shows, the same Faurisson receiving an “insolence award” given out by Dieudonné’s assistant dressed as a death camp inmate. And that’s only the top of the rotten iceberg.

        Infrared probably refers to Haz al Din, an obscure reactionary pseudo-marxist clown (unlike with Dieudonné, the comedy seems to be unintentional in his case). Imagine somebody randomly sprinkling “material conditions” over an excerpt from Project 2025, wordfiltering “gender ideology” for “Malthusianism” while retaining the transphobia and so on. He is mostly known for his, admittedly funny, shocked reaction when people on stream convinced him that girlcum is pee (author’s note: it is not actually pee) and for making an account on hexbear and telling people that smoking weed has a feminizing effect.

        I would normally resent that i know this, but in his case streamer drama is actually mildly entertaining in an absurdist way.
