I may have to resort to West Bengal whataboutism at some point if i want to discuss this subject publicly without being brought to court for it.
Not even kidding. This law is only one part of how absolutely bonkers the situation will get in Germany. The parliament also recently passed a law that makes denial of any genocide a criminal offense. They did not specify what is a genocide, though, so nobody knows if it also applies to the Bengal Famine, if it applies to the Korean War, if it applies to the US sanctions on Iraq etc. But if this also passes, it will definitely apply to the "Holodomor".
We all know whether that law applies to the genocides in Bangladesh, Korea or Iraq. It's not a question about what happened or how many people were murdered, it's all about who was murdered and who the murderers were.
