When a tree grows, it is soft and pliable. But when it's dry and hard, it dies.

Hardness and strength are death's companions. Flexibility and softness are the embodiment of life.

Mario did the holodomor so I don't appreciate him joking around.

Nipponodomor, the ending of Japanese rule, which had many benefits for Taiwan.

I remember once reading an old manga (crying freeman, maybe?) where the protag travelled to Malaysia and they did this whole historical revisionist thing about how Japan was in south east Asia to help liberate the people from colonialism and the malaysians were all secretly grateful to Japan for the war and I was like lol oh hell no

Wasn't that Japan's contemporary claim, even if it was farcical?

yes. Japan made a lot of rhetorical bank from being able to claim that it was freeing peoples from the fetters of [American/British/Dutch] imperialism, and was instituting pan-Asianism, "Asia for the Asians", and so on

Yes, and in the Dutch colonies specifically they were initially met with collaboration and enthusiasm.

But then the Japanese wanted slave labour to rebuild the refineries and oil wells that were blown up, and comfort women, etc etc

They really couldn’t help themselves. Same thing happened in Indochina.

The wiki page about the museum mentions the other two, but kind of weirdly says that the plural was removed???or something.

Here let's see:


quote:

On 31 July 2015, the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine renamed the museum in order to reflect the singular instance of the famine-genocide known as Holodomor. Prior to this, the museum, which represents three famines – the 1921–1923 famine, the 1932–1933 famine, and the 1946-1947 famine – used the term 'Holodomor' as a plural term. The plural has been removed in order to offset the understanding of the Holodomor being the 1932–1933 famine as being exclusively deemed to be genocidal in nature.

I can't believe the holodomor museum would deny a holodomor genocide. To learn that they are actively denying two holodomor genocides is chilling.

The people come with nets to fish for wheat off the river barges, and the guards hold them back; they come in rattling carts to get the dumped wheat stalks, but the train is loaded. And they stand still and watch the wheat float by, listen to the screaming pigs being killed in a ditch and loaded on the train, watch the mountains of wheat to be slopped down by Stalin personally; and in the eyes of the people there is the failure; and in the eyes of the hungry there is a growing wrath. In the souls of the people the grains of wrath are filling and growing heavy, growing heavy for the harvest.
