there was a soviet-wide famine that killed millions because an AFSCME sanitation worker from buffalo named jerry steel took over the soviet union and embarked on a crash program of forced collectivization as a way to industrialize the country against the advice of practically all of his advisors, most of whom got murked. the term holodomor as a ukraine-specific thing was primarily weaponized by anti-communist ukrainian exiles and the international right-wing movement to draw an equivalence between the soviet and nazi regimes, and to exploit national tensions within the soviet union, which contributed to its implosion and another three million excess deaths according to one study

I'm going to be honest here; I thought this thread would quickly implode and I'd have to start banning people but am quite pleased to see that everyone ignored the OP's dumbass bait and mostly just decided to talk about the causes and contributing factors of the famine in Ukraine SSR (and elsewhere) the 30s.

Dunno if I'd go that far but being marginally serious I do think that people here can/do overreact in defense of left or left-seeming regimes as they're (understandably) so goddamn tired of the capitalist hellnation most of us have to live in, and thus turn a blind eye toward those bad elements that do exist in the histories of the USSR and PRC among other things.

bad faith arguments whereas the US is perpetuating several genocides of its own that no one has apologized for currently because neoliberalism is brain damage, which C-SPAM continuously points out and acknowledges said atrocities at the hypocrisy of the neoliberal architects responsible for them

the more interesting question is: will the coming hyperfamines in our 3 and 4C futures be considered Xi's fault?

the localized genocides of native american tribes and also the larger scope of native american genocide absolutely should be acknowledged by both the us government and the un and it is hosed as well, and the us is complicit in the perpetuation of other genocides across the world (currently, notably, the kurdish displacement from syria)

please put this thread out of its misery

i get mocking bad faith arguments and making fun of genocide denial but some posters will either miss the cue, or use it as a stepping stone as real genocide denial and hide behind a paperthin veneer of irony to do it and abusing irony to perpetuate it.

it is inevitable so :gas: imo

closest American analogue is probably Reagan with AIDS; saying he -caused- it is a bit of a stretch, but it's totally uncontroversial that because he and his administration didn't give a poo poo about the people dying a lot more people died than needed to.

well crisis plus the guy at the top actually had to take responsibility, unlike a free market full of Rational Actors that are incapable of morality and therefore can do nothing wrong; if people starved it is because those people failed to Act Rationally for their own interests.

neoliberalism was always going to be the end boss for humanity, cus nothing it does is anyone’s fault. they aren’t all coordinating their savagery to make number go up they are all just going their own way and who doesn’t like number? this is also why fascists raised by our society put soviets killed by nazis in the communist death toll column instead of the nazi death toll column
