No you don’t. You are all generally chronically online and very vocal. I haven’t seen any impact in my town or county, let alone state/country. You don’t go around bragging about anything because you haven’t accomplished anything.

It’s a lot more complex than that but why would I expect nuance here

It’s pretty straightforward what happened, Stalin stole from Ukrainian farmers and caused millions of Ukrainian citizens to starve to death

See there you go, exactly what I mean. IMO it was a result of compounding factors, including rapid industrialization and collectivization (both of which were reckless in pace), Ukraine already being a famine prone region, unscientific agricultural practices (i.e. lysenkoism, which more shows the dangers of nepotism than the dangers of communism), and bad communications. There are probably a few more I’m missing here too. It was also the last major famine in the Soviet Union.

So while yes, it was probably man-made and certainly exacerbated by human action, the evidence leads me to believe that it was not intentionally created, and that is an important difference.

My brother there is plenty of evidence showing the Russians did it intentionally

For one he was warned countless times of the starving people and ignored it, he had unrealistic grain quotas enforced as people were starving while being aware they were starving (something like 20,000 people were dying a day), Ukrainian citizens who left to find food were arrested and either jailed or sent back to where they came by secret police, and the soviets tried to conceal the whole thing to hide responsibility after around 3.9 million people died

You mean a literal famine? One that was exacerbated by the greed of the landowners who decided to slaughter their animals and burn their crops rather than feed their fellow man?

You're over complicating it and #4 has it entirely backwards

Believe the capitalists, they definitely don't have any vested interest in making communism look bad or anything

Better to overcomplicate it than to render it one dimensional as #4 did imo

I believe the Ukrainians, they hold a Holodomor Remembrance Day the fourth Saturday of November and also strongly teach it in education. Maybe you should look into it rather than just talk out your ass
