Concurrent with the inception of non-white sacralizing and of the flight from white. While the latter two trends continue their now five-decades-long ascendancy, Peak Holocaust hit in the early 2000s:
As white gentile nations have increasingly taken on foreign non-white populations that are more hostile to Jews than the natives of said white gentile nations, reverence for and deference to the descendants of the six gorillion has correspondingly declined. Reap what you sow.
It’s interesting that it peaked right around the time of 9/11 and the Iraq War.
Emergence of the capitalized term is strongly associated with the Holocaust TV miniseries, first aired spring 1978. This is a plausible start date for the ‘Industry,’ as well. By the mid 1970s, the West was turning a corner on that unpleasant war, and semi-sympathetic depictions of both sides were emerging; all of that ended.
(For those who haven’t seen it, try to find Cross of Iron (1977), director Sam Peckinpah. It more-or-less sympathetically depicts the German soldier, and is a war-story from their small-unit perspective. This kind of film became impossible in the 1980s-2010s. What will the 2020s hold?)
The Peckinpah film, The Cross of Iron, was a sympathetic portrayal of German troops in Russia, but it lacked the nuances of the Willi Heinrich original novel, Das Geduldige Fleisch. Maybe someday a talented German director will do a better job.
Re: The ‘peak’ around 2000:
A general comment on Ngram , a caveat let’s say: I have seen some talk that Google-Ngram is not necessarily reliable after year 2000 for technical reasons related to the rise of the Internet and the way these Ngram %s are calculated. Ngram yields a lot of apparent ‘peaks’ about year 2000, and then shows declines in the 2001-2007 period. This may also why they end the corpus at 2007 (distortions become too large).
A way to corroborate a presumed peak would be a search for appearances of the term ‘Holocaust’ itself and related terms in a given newspaper, by year, for say 1968 to 2018.

50 year anniversary type movies, partly brought about by survivors dying and making the news, that have some solid financial success so more get made but the quality decreases and the public gets bored so slowly the supply dribbles away.
I really liked The Pianist – the music really works. I’ve not seen Schindler’s list. What else was good?
Pretty good. At any rate, movies (and societies) can never have enough kick-ass babes and magic negroes.
Speaking of imaginary things, imagine the world of the future, where all babes will be kick-ass enough to be able to deflect the “romantic ministrations” of inadequately magical negroes.
Granted, according to a couple of our more tiresome contributors, no KAB would ever want to do such a thing, but myself I just like imagining.
“The reaction to the mesmerising Dunkirk that held it didn’t have enough kickass babes or magical negros might be an indication as to what WWII movies look like circa 2025.”
Sympathetic portrayals of Germans in the Second World War were made in the 1950s, such as Rommel the Desert Fox and Sink the Bismarck. Even The Longest Day and The Great Escape did not portray Germans as monsters. A German film, Downfall, that portrayed a true-to-historical-record Adolf Hitler (he was popular with his secretarial staff) made about ten years ago or so, was criticized for not showing him as a deviant.
The Peckinpah film, The Cross of Iron, was a sympathetic portrayal of German troops in Russia, but it lacked the nuances of the Willi Heinrich original novel, Das Geduldige Fleisch. Maybe someday a talented German director will do a better job.
The most important thing about that graph is that the capital-H “Holocaust” essentially did not exist for more than two decades after it supposedly happened. You would think that if six million Jews really were killed, there would be significant mention of the event’s proper name at least somewhat close to the time of the event.
There is no rational explanation for that, other than that it didn’t actually happen, and the narrative was retconned afterwards.
Supporting cultural evidence for this appears in, you guessed it, WWII films and TV shows. Does anyone think that a half-hour sitcom about a German concentration camp (“Hogan’s Heroes”) would have been allowed, so close to the time of mass murders in such a camp?
Perhaps they forgot?Replies: @A Random Dude, @Duke Norfolk
Why did that happen? We were still in the Cold War, but maybe we felt more secure at that point about our position versus the USSR and Germany's allegiance to the West. There were also a lot of changes in US politics between 1970-78.

Head down to a local Thrift store, and pick up a copy of a dictionary of encyclopedia prior to 1965. Not one single mention of “the holocaust”, or places like Treblinka, Sobibor, and Belzec, where supposedly 2,000,000 Jews were snuffed by the Diesel of Death.
“The Holocaust” was invented in 1978, with the movie of that same name.
There is no rational explanation for that, other than that it didn't actually happen, and the narrative was retconned afterwards.

Eisenhower, Churchill, and de Gualle all wrote extensive memiors about WWII. Tens of millions of words, and not one single one was about “gas chambers” or the mass murder of Jews.
Perhaps they forgot?
I had to find both his memoirs, At Ease and Crusade in Europe, by indirect means.
I'm sure that's all a coincidence though.
I’m curious to see how “holocaust” gets mentioned and used prior to the 1940s, as we’ve seen a slow but steady increase in the decades preceding it.
Regarding the legitimacy of the stories and statistics about the holocaust, I don’t care much to dive into it but I have seen the tribe wildly inflate statistics to use as a cudgel against the native whites from the number of transgenders in the military to deaths of Puerto Ricans with Hurricane Maria to various statistics that are unfounded in reality (transgender suicides, rapes on campus, etc.). I know all I need to know about the holocaust’s legitimacy from levantine antics the last several years.

William Shirer’s ‘Rise & Fall of the Third Reich’s’ index does not include the H word, big or small cap.
A few paragraphs discuss Auschwitz as a labor camp where awful conditions led to early death. No mention that I saw of Treblinka and all the rest of the holy pantheon.
As mentioned above, neither Eisenhower’s or Churchill’s long WW2 remembrances mention the holocaust.
‘Das Boot’ was a sympathetic portrayal of German submariners.
Question to audience: I remember reading years ago that it was impermissible for a German Wehrmacht officer to belong to the Nazi party. Can anyone verify whether that’s correct?
The series eventually ran to 39 volumes, and ended in 1983. The problem? No "holocaust" was mentioned in the books.
If these were issued today, they would start with 37 volumes on "the holocaust", and anything about WWII would merit a book or two.

Anyone else remember 35 years ago when William Shawcross referred to the murder of a couple of million Cambodians by the Khmer Rouge as a holocaust? The usual suspects freaked out because there was only one holocaust and to compare the deaths of several million European Jews to the deaths of several million Cambodians was unconscionable.
The publicity campaign leading up the the “Holocaust” miniseries, starring Frank “Collin” Cohen, his merry band of “neo-Nazis,” and their ACLU-supported legal campaign to march in Skokie, IL — reportedly the home of untold millions of “Holocaust survivors” — didn’t hurt, either.
There is no rational explanation for that, other than that it didn't actually happen, and the narrative was retconned afterwards.

You beat me to it. Hogans Heroes was about a POW camp, not a concentration camp, but TV/Hollywood undeniably went from portraying WWII Germans as lovable bumblers in the 1960s to genocidal monsters in the 1978 mini-series.

Bullshit. Many historical events are not immediately “on the books”. The Gulag system didn’t please west-based reds and was strenously ignored. The flattening of Prussia and generally large swathes of eastern Europe by the advancing Red Army was not exactly well advertised until about 20 years ago. Further afield, does anyone even have a proper name for “Belgians in the Kongo”?

“Why did that happen?”
My guess is it has a lot to do with Israel. As Israeli behavior has gotten more outrageous, and more attention is being paid to it, the Greatest Shoah on Earth must be deployed to change the subject and create a narrative that Jews are the eternal victims. But it doesn’t have to be the Holocaust. Did anyone notice the Mike Brown/Ferguson media blowup happened right in the middle of the Gaza slaughter? I sure did. Our intrepid editors suddenly got those pesky Arab kids off the front pages.
Has that tendency been quantified? It doesn’t really show up in the default search terms Ngrams starts with.
It may have peaked around the year 2000, but the holocaust myth has been around since the late 1800s.

There’s no evidence the Belgians were heavy handed at all or even violently repressed the Congolese. It’s impossible for them to have killed 10 million people when that’s the population extent of the Congo and with a multigenerational population growth.
And if you take the 30,000’ view, converting Paleolithic cannibals into a modern Western society just cannot be done without some brutality. Arguably the Belgians weren’t brutal enough as the Congo has reverted to its feral state since the Belgians departed. There is an eye opening travelogue by some suicidal Europeans who drove across the Congo in a Land Cruiser a decade or so ago:
https://expeditionportal.com/forum/threads/democratic-republic-of-congo-lubumbashi-to-kinshasa.50799/
The Congo and the Darien are “problematic” for the racial egalitarian and cultural Marxist. And unlike the Andamen or Sentinel, we have quite a bit of recent experience in these Paleolithic locales.
History and anthropology have been corrupted to occlude the fact that Africa and mesoamerica were still in the Stone Age just a hundred years ago so it’s extremely useful to have contemporary holdouts like Congo & Darien especially as the Amazon basin is being monetized and modernized.
Suggest you google “Belgian Congo cut off hands” or something like that.
Holohoax: FOUNDATION Of Cheap, Popular “Theology,” Including Atheist Variety
It should be simply holohoax–emphasis on HOAX–and it’s simply people’s introduction to Jews and Judaism, which is just satanism, Jews the leaders thereof–Jews made into “sacred cows” whom everyone is supposed to worship.
So Jews lie, including lying to themselves, lying themselves into their own reality–their own little “private Idaho.” Jews DOMINATE this corrupt culture of lies–why?–how?–because they’re COLLECTIVISTIC subjectivists and liars, most effective “group-thinkers,” most organized, most dedicated, most cohesive, and best led. So as Jews dominate satanism, the satanists in general dominate the large culture of over-populated, bewildered, demoralized goons, suckers, fools, inferiors, and weaklings.
(Definition: satanism is extreme subjectivism, idea reality is created by mind/consciousness, making subject God, the creator–satanism.)
Look at most successful Israeli terror-state, grand product of WWII, following Part one of WWI, zionists having now and lately gotten in front of the propaganda “curve,” having elected Trump, Trump pretending to “nationalism” of all things, against “globalism,” which globalism had been for soooo many yrs the special little project of Jews, fm WWI and League of Nations, at least.
And this large cultural complex of lies and lying actually works for Jews because the over-populated gentiles LOVE IT–they just eat it up–at first, anyway. Holohoax is part of Catholic “vatican” propaganda and official “theology”–holocaustianity–according to Mike Hoffman, RevisionistReview.blogspot.com and Talmudical.blogspot.com.
Thus the Jews rule the corrupt, decadent, and degenerating society in Spenglerian “Decline of the West” until the society begins to seriously collapse, as the economy, and especially the monetary system breaks down, the money now corrupted into mere fiat CURRENCY (not real money, which is gold/silver) going to HYPER-inflation, as we see presently–thus the END is near, as forecast and described in New Test. “Book of Revelations.”
So Jews/satanists and Israeli terror-state are now looking for a neat little war by which they continue to nurse along their big-attack-dog, Jew S A (formerly USA), against “globalists” or Muslims, these to be backed by China and Russia, for example–such is the war, so far–“perpetual war for perpetual peace,” in accord w. Orwell’s “1984,” Jews continuing to run their fiat-currency system by which they dominate and rule.
The one thing Jews/satanists cannot stand is REAL Christianity, worship of TRUTH (= Christ, Gosp. JOHN 14:6)–which is why Jews must continue to subvert the establishment churches like the “vatican” system, including all the Protestant institutions too, esp. by means of “Judeo-Christian” (JCs–also called “Christian-Zionist”) hereticalists, see Whtt.org and TruthTellers.org for expo.
Thus Jews encourage the gross confusion even among Christians to effect Christianity is primarily about idiot “love” or false “faith” of “beeeeleeeeeeeeeeeeevin’,” or non-existent “good vs. evil,” etc.–NOT about TRUTH vs. Jew/satanic lies (Gosp. JOHN 8:44).
So Spenglerian “Decline of the West” must continue, the gentiles steadily killed-off and expended until civilization can begin once again–when the Jews/satanists will arise yet again in the ever-continuing CYCLIC history of things, featuring TRUTH (= Christ) vs. lies (satanism).

“Holocaust” is a religious term. It refers to a kind of burnt offering, an animal sacrifice in which the victim is wholly immolated, and was part of the ritual worship commanded by God to the pre-Christian Hebrews of the Exodus. Later it was used analogously, in a most solemn and supreme fashion, to refer to the self-sacrifice of Jesus Christ, both priest and victim, on the cross.
This is what it means; this is all it means. Any other usage of it is a direct assault on Christianity.

There is a lot of press about illegal immigrants sucking off the nearly $100 billion of Supplemental Nutritional Assistant Program (Electronic Benefit Transfer/Food Stamp program), administrated by the USDA, with some estimates ranging from 43% of all recipients (false) to 43% of all illegal immigrants utilizing SNAP (much more accurate as illegals can’t legally receive SNAP but their off-spring born in the US can “file”. Want to pay for the wall? Reduce SNAP by 5% and immediately “save” $4 billion” from the decrease of illegals receiving funds to buy candy bars from the convenience store, and the increase of illegals leaching off SNAP falls FAR below the $4 billion they are receiving now. Build the wall. Immigration falls, SNAP contributions fall. Cost? Less than zero. Wall is built. Why wouldn’t we?
This is objectively untrue. What is true, however, is that the Belgians used no more violent force than the Bantus used against each other. In fact, comparatively speaking, the Belgians were a far kinder master than the local Bantu tribes.

As white gentile nations have increasingly taken on foreign non-white populations that are more hostile to Jews than the natives of said white gentile nations, reverence for and deference to the descendants of the six gorillion has correspondingly declined. Reap what you sow.
They’ve reaped the surveillance state and ever harsher anti-“hate” laws from the sowing of the West with vibrancy. Plus, although the “foreign non-white populations” are more hostile to Jews, they are also hostile to white gentiles and are much more able to express their anti-white hostility than their anti-semitism. Rotherham has become infamous around the world for the activities of its still small percentage of enrichers, but it’s a small town and what’s happened there is only a small part of what’s happened elsewhere.
In addition, some in the “foreign non-white populations” are very happy to work with Jews in pursuit of shared anti-white and anti-Christian aims. In the UK, the anti-Islamophobia Muslim organization TellMAMA (Measuring Anti-Muslim Attacks) has two Jews and at least one half-Jew among its six “leaders and patrons”:
