You can tell the Holodomor was bad because it sounds like the Holocaust. Think about it.

Plus the death toll is 6 million +1 (10 million according to that one bullshit "remembrance" plaque in Ukraine blaming "Jew Commisars" but not translating that bit into English haha)

My favorite thing is dudes who couldn't point to Xinjiang on a map talking about Uighurs.

Or have no idea that there are other muslim Chinese, or that the "knife attacks" we all heard about years ago as fodder for American gun control debates were "East Turkestan" terrorists, or that the fact that the sun has set today doesn't mean it won't come back tomorrow

By the way, to call their book “the most detailed research” is to reproduce the superiority of Western academics to (semi-)peripheral scholars. I think the left should undermine these academic hierarchies.

^^^lmao I love this, "the left" should support indigenous nazi collaborators speaking their lived experiences

ah you must be confused. this is the holodomor DEFINITELY happened thread and not the holocaust definitely happened thread

the holocaust doesn't have its own thread but was almost as bad, I think it's fair

ooh that led me to a nice quote by one Thomas Mann: "To place Russian communism on the same moral level with Nazi fascism, because both are totalitarian, is, at best, superficial, in the worse case it is fascism. He who insists on this equality may be a democrat; in truth and in his heart, he is already a fascist, and will surely fight fascism with insincerity and appearance, but with complete hatred only communism."

"The Holodomor? Beyond belief? You'd like to think so, but this gruesome episode is 100% ... true. A horrible famine, exacerbated by Soviet policy and then weaponized by Nazi apologists ... proof that those who don't learn from history are doomed ... to be it."

Does anyone else use post-it notes to remind themselves about the holodomor?
I know what you're probably thinking - that I'm a piece of poo poo for needing to be reminded. But I have a bad memory, and I think accessibility is important if we want to spread awareness of the holodomor

check the carbon monoxide detectors in your house if you keep forgetting about the holodomor
