        It literally just means “severe famine”.

        fair, i used the translation from the "it was an intentional genocide" side of the "debate" because i figured that was the one the video maker had in mind
        either translation is ridiculous in the context, but i thought the "death by hunger" one was funnier

      Sure but holodomor is a now way to say "genocide" among the the slavoj ookrani people

      Coincidentally, that same audience don't usually like using the more famous word "holocaust" as synonim of genocide. Surely cuz it's disrespectful to jewsih people :blob-no-thoughts: absolutely

        "slavoj ookrani" it literally hurts to laugh so much and all it took was 2 fake words.

          Fake words? Excuse me but that’s an insulting way to refer to one of the most prominent philosophers in the west :zizek:

      According to the western press, the literal translation has suddenly changed to "extermination through famine".
