        My other comment:

        The holodomor was made into a genocide by hearst press, which was a nazi publication run by a nazi who literally met with Hitler to discuss pr strategy. When it first made its rounds in the US it became obvious that it was a fraudulent story. And now people are believing nazi propaganda that people in 1930s America (which was pretty supportive of nazism) saw through pretty quickly.

        The famine was terrible, and there was incompetence abound, but after the soviet archives were unsealed even people like anti-communist historian Robert Conquest reversed their position on whether it was a genocide.

        Comparing this to the murder of 11 million people that the nazis considered subhuman is disgusting.

            You’re doing soft holocaust denial. Plenty of Jewish “collaborators” were killed during nazi occupation under the justification that they collaborated with the Soviets on a genocide the nazis made up.
