He probably believes in preserving the truth of the Holocaust … as a How-To guide.

I’m familiar with academic cultic apologists: take everything the group they study says at face value with no confirmation research, sometimes funded by the groups, refuse to hear anything ex-member apostates say, etc.

But this sounds like Heart of Darkness on acid material:

Dirty Hands: Scholar calls for solidarity with neo-Nazis in the new ‘immoral anthropology’

In “Collaborating with the Radical Right: Scholar-Informant Solidarity and the Case for an Immoral Anthropology,” Benjamin Teitelbaum argues that detached observation is the wrong way to seek deep insight about fringe communities, just as it was for the pith helmeted colonial scholars who looked on their subjects with condescension and arrogance.

Today’s anthropologists have strayed from their foundational ideal of solidarity with their subjects, he argues. He urges them to rediscover it, to collaborate with their subjects, as he has, and even advocate for them.

“We should not think that in doing that we can maintain moral purity,” Teitelbaum, assistant professor of ethnomusicology at the University of Colorado, Boulder, said in an interview. “We inevitably become accomplices.”

It may be immoral, he said, but it is “an immorality born of commitment to the people you are studying,” he said.

While I can understand the idea of not being judgemental of subjects of anthropology, I think his mousetrap no longer has any cheese.
