Can someone explain to me like I am 5 years old why a pair of shoes are 'proof of genocide'?
Shoes on their own, are not proof of mass murder. No one who understands anything about large and major crime investigations, such as mass murder, will think that one piece of evidence on its own can act as proof. The piles of shoes found at various camps, is one piece of circumstantial evidence of mass murder.
The shoes and other personal property, corroborate the claims of witnesses that everything was seized from those who were gassed, in undressing rooms next to the chambers. The circumstances fit, as in if many people are killed, they do not need their shoes any more, so somewhere expect to find lots of shoes. There is a chronology of people are told to bring personal effects with them on the transports, they arrive and are told to hand over all of the personal effects before showering. They are not showered, so they do not get their effects back, instead they are killed. That leaves their personal effects to be sorted and sold by the Nazis. Each part of that chronology of events is evidence, by witnesses, documents recording the seized property and piles of that property left behind at the camps.
The piles of shoes also do not fit with the revisionist narrative of relocation and resettlement. If that had happened, then why was the personal effects of the prisoners left behind at A-B? What were those prisoners wearing when they were resettled? Revisionists cannot produce an evidenced chronology of events that explains piles of shoes at A-B. The circumstances do not fit the resettlement narrative.
