They are not factually wrong becuase their opinion does not match the popular opinion. They are factually wrong because their opinion does not align with the fact that the holocaust was not only about exterminating jews.
If I formed the opinion that the third Reich did not want to exterminate disabled people as part of the holocaust that would be factually wrong. That's how facts and opinions work.
You don't know what the word "opinion" means. I highly recommend brushing up on your vocabulary.
Let's quote the oxford dictionary then:
In this context the opinion is the thought that the holocaust was only about exterminating jews. This thought does not align with the facts.
Wow. You also need to brush up on your reading comprehension because you can't even understand the words you're reading!
Goodbye. I'm gonna block you now because you aren't worth conversing with.
I don't really care what losers on the internet think.

People have the opinion that the climate isn't changing. People have the opinion that the world is flat. People have the opinion everyone with dark skin is sub human.
Some people frame their terrible views as opinions so they can use the bad faith argument that it's just a difference of opinions so everyone should just be ok with their hateful or ignorant stances. Some people frame their terrible views as opinions to try and avoid valid criticism of their opinions contradictions with reality.
You are fervently engaging in a behavior exhibited by the hateful and ignorant and there is a pretty safe bet as to why.
