Nope, zero archaeological evidence and somehow no written records from the Egyptians about them, the plagues and the parting of the red sea.

I'm not an expert by any means but my understanding is there is some evidence of small groups of semitic people leaving Egypt who could be classified as slaves. Nothing like the story as told in exodus of course.

there's a fair amount of evidence that the soviets, though a combination of political priorities and simple neglect, condemned the ukrainian countryside to a worse fate than the russian metropole; they also continued their industrialisation programme at a time when they probably could've prioritised feeding people. the idea that it was a deliberate, targeted genocide doesn't hold up, though - parts of central asia were hit worse, proportionally, than ukraine was

I don't think this reasoning holds water. It's like saying the Nazis killed more Roma proportionately than Jews so they can't have been genociding Jews. (I just made the statistic up as an example). There's a long history of racism towards central Asians by the Russian state and afaik the USSR continued that.
I'm not sold either way on the question of the holdomor being a genocide but if famine was used as a tool to bring a certain subset of the population into line then I think it counts. Lemkin is pretty clear in his definitions that killing part of a group can qualify. I think this becomes more of an argument about what counts as genocide pretty quickly. It wasn't long after the holdomor (possibly even during it) that Ukrainians were one of the three trusted ethnicities in the armed forces, able to hold posts barred to other races. Stalin was certainly not interested in wiping them out.

I can see that if the argument is that the colonial powers doing their absolute best to humiliate the Qing and ROC made the CCP the most legitimate option to the population

I skimmed it and there's shockingly no mention of the ROC, although the author to their credit does atleast passingly acknowledge Japanese imperialism. The argument seems to be equivalent to one suggesting that the state of Israel should be thankful for the Shoa.
