ONLY ONE OF THESE TWEETS IS GROUNDED IN REALITY

On Twitter, which now promotes Neo-Nazis and Holocaust deniers,
two tweets follow one another on my timeline. The one from the Auschwitz
Museum has a black-and-white photograph of a smiling young boy, and this text:

21 April 1931 | A French Jewish boy, Maurice Dubensky, was born in #Paris.
He arrived at #Auschwitz on 6 February 1944 in a transport of 1,214 Jews
deported from Drancy. He was murdered in a gas chamber after the selection.

Just below it, a tweet with a photograph of a massive oak tree in leaf,
filtering through its leafy branches golden light of the Sun, and casting shadows
on the ground. The tweet from The English Oak Project has this text:

Take comfort, for there is an angel watching over you

Where was Maurice Dubensky's angel, believers?
