No. "Seems real" is not a satisfactory unambiguous definitive answer when you're being asked if The Holocaust happened, which I commented on in my original answer.
I'll try again. Lucky did the Holocaust happen?
I only need a yes or no answer on this. It's quite disturbing you consistently stonewall when it comes to this very simple plain question.

I know that you're capable of reading.

But you're never going to get a definitive statement on something that (allegedly) happened before I was born

If you asked me if my parents were born the best you're getting is "almost certainly so".

Now you can be disturbed as much as you like.

Did World War I take place before World War II?

Also, would you definitively know things if they "(allegedly)" took place after you were born but were still a toddler at the time?

All the best.

Yes wwii almost certainly did take place after wwi.

No I would not definitely know if something took place when I was a toddler. My earliest memories are from the age of 4.

Was anyone who was born more than 10,000 years ago alive 100 years ago?

Did the year 1802 happen before the year 1927?

Also, you may want to change your claim to the following:

That way nobody can gotcha you on being vague about an incident that took place when you were 3 years old. You know, just being genuinely helpful here.

All the best.

I know you do, but I noticed you avoided answering those questions, so I assume you are agnostic on those as they took place before you were 4 years old. Let's try this.

Was Obama President before Trump? Note, if you started posting on this forum when you were 3 or less then you do not need to answer that definitively.

All the best.

Well, as you know, everyone else on the planet somehow has a reading comprehension issue when chatting with you, so that is just a baseline you need to accept when interacting with any other living human.

If time is not linear then why does it matter if events happened before or after you were born (or were 4). You were the one that specified that condition which relies on time being linear on this great flat world of ours.

All the best.

Cool, since we got past the always with you reading comprehension issues, and since you seem to acknowledge that time is linear for now, I will ask the following question that took place seemingly after you turned 4 years old, which means given that time is seemingly linear that you were older than 4 years old at the time, so you should be able to make a definitive statement on this.

Was Obama President before Trump?

All the best.

This entire discussion about Luckbox not giving a straight answer to questions makes me think he's trying to be a "Fair Witness"* and is less than competent at it.

I'm actually in the same camp as Trolly, I'm not really sure if you're trolling or not. Not a good place to be for you Lucky, when you're between tasteless at best and repugnant at worst.

I'm reminded of this story that one of my professors once told me about how he had brought up the genocide in Rwanda to a Rwandan lady and she got super offended because he did not state that it was the "genocide of the Tutsis by the Hutus"-- because apparently just calling it the Rwandan genocide is not enough.
