what does Elie Wiesel mean when he said: “to forget would not only dangerous but offensive; to forget the dead would be akin to killing them a second time.”

Wiesel means that it would be irresponsible to forget the atrocities of the past. The moment we forget the past is the moment we open the door to allow something similar to happen in the future. When we forget the dead and the horror that led to their deaths, we're disrespecting and minimizing the pain and suffering they went through. We have to remember that we are where we are now in terms of freedom because we've seen what a dictatorship could lead to.
