Don't forget Holodomor, truly a classic

[–] companero@hexbear.net 60 points 1 year ago (2 children)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor

man-made famine

[...] starvation was selectively weaponized and the famine was "instrumentalized" and amplified against Ukrainians to punish them for their rejection of the "new serfdom" and to break their nationalism.

Soviet and Western denial and downplay

Remembrance

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bengal_famine_of_1943

anthropogenic famine

Social disruption

Relief efforts

There was genuine racist, imperialist malice involved in the Bengal famine, but they were brown, so... shrug-outta-hecks

My lib cousin was telling me that every famine in history has been caused by Socialist governments and I was like what about the potato famine on Ireland, or the Bengal famine? And she didn't even knew those ones existed.

The selective knowledgeable of libs is out of this world.

Any famine in feudal Europe? Socialist. Famine in Bronze Age Europe? Socialist etc

China was socialist before Mao, and has never been socialist since.

[–] BountifulEggnog@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I thought China was an aes (actually existing socialism)?

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Well, no, you can tell by the lack of famines.

and to break their nationalism

Love 2 attempt to break an allied country's nationalism by attempting a genocide for one year (that kills more non-Ukranians than Ukranians) and then spend the next 20+ accepting them as brothers in arms and a unique culture in the Union

Wikipedia's founder, Jimmy Wales, is a self-described Ayn Rand libertarian and anarcho-capitalist[1]

That's crazy, I didn't know he was a pedophile

[–] SeducingCamel@hexbear.net 2 points 1 year ago

Wow good read

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

That's actually insane, I didn't know any of that

Can’t even tell which comment you’re referring to

[–] EllenKelly@hexbear.net 15 points 1 year ago

I know it's a waste of time, but often some of these sensationalist lines aren't mentioned in references listed on wikipedia, and with a little bit of effort you can remove misinformation

I once removed a line from an article stating Stalin killed 10,000 people
