the Holodomor
The great Ukranian famine happened but it wasn't a deliberate genocide against the Ukranian people, it was a fuckup of the state, it is Nazi apologia to use the term "Holodomor" and equivocate a lethal administrative failure to a deliberate, explicit state effort to destroy the Jewish people.
Ugyhur Genocide is still happening
Again, despite the fact that there is no denying there have been numerous human rights violations in Xinjiang, the scale and intentionality have been demonstrably overblown by murdoch media, the american state department, and Adrian Zenz (right wing christian anticommunist nutjob) because they want to manufacture consent to fuck up the region even more so they can get Xinjiang's oil.

It also is soft famine denialism because it prioritises the Ukrainian famine victims and it completely whitewashes the other famine victims across the region including the territories of Povolzhe, Central Black Earth Region, Northern Caucasus, Ural, Crimea, Western Siberia, Kazakhstan, and Belarus where millions are estimated to have died.
(It's a bit like how discourse on Nazi concentration camps tends to completely overlook the imprisonment and extermination of queer people, socialists, Sinti and Roma people, Jehovah's Witnesses, Polish people, Czechs and Belorussians.)
On them matter of the famine, here's celebrated economist Keynes speaking about the state of Soviet agriculture in his 1919 book, The Economic Consequences of the Peace, where he writes about his findings as the British delegate to the Treaty of Versailles:
Show
the soil of Europe will not yet have recovered its former productivity. If trade is not resumed with Russia, wheat in 1920-21 (unless the seasons are specially bountiful) must be scarce and very dear. The blockade of Russia, lately proclaimed by the Allies, is therefore a foolish and short-sighted proceeding; we are blockading not so much Russia as ourselves.
The process of reviving the Russian export trade is bound in any case to be a slow one. The present productivity of the Russian peasant is not believed to be sufficient to yield an exportable surplus on the pre-war scale. The reasons for this are obviously many, but amongst them are included the insufficiency of agricultural implements and accessories and the absence of incentive to production caused by the lack of commodities in the towns which the peasants can purchase in exchange for their produce. Finally, there is the decay of the transport system, which hinders or renders impossible the collection of local surpluses in the big centers of distribution.
I see no possible means of repairing this loss of productivity within any reasonable period of time except through the agency of German enterprise and organization. It is impossible geographically and for many other reasons for Englishmen, Frenchmen, or Americans to undertake it;—we have neither the incentive nor the means for doing the work on a sufficient scale. Germany, on the other hand, has the experience, the incentive, and to a large extent the materials for furnishing the Russian peasant with the goods of which he has been starved for the past five years, for reorganizing the business of transport and collection, and so for bringing into the world's pool, for the common advantage, the supplies from which we are now so disastrously cut off. It is in our interest to hasten the day when German agents and organizers will be in a position to set in train in every Russian village the impulses of ordinary economic motive. This is a process quite independent of the governing authority in Russia
While this is not predicting a famine per se, all of the conditions for a disastrous famine, when considering the effects of the drought which came, are described by Keynes aptly.
so transphobes, chasers, white supremacists, and ableists are the lesser evil compared to who exactly?
The people who support states where queer people were thrown in camps and even killed whenever it was politically convenient
The great Ukranian famine happened but it wasn't a deliberate genocide against the Ukranian people, it was a fuckup of the state, it is Nazi apologia to use the term "Holodomor" and equivocate a lethal administrative failure to a deliberate, explicit state effort to destroy the Jewish people.
It was deliberate. And it's not Nazi apologia to acknowledge that a country other than Germany commited genocide, you little shit.
Again, despite the fact that there is no denying there have been numerous human rights violations in Xinjiang, the scale and intentionality have been demonstrably overblown
"I worship a state that commits genocides against minority groups but it's NOT THAT BAD I promise bro"
The people who support states where queer people were thrown in camps and even killed whenever it was politically convenient
Are you talking about america and its allies or...?
It was deliberate.
Only according to the "victims of communism memorial fund" right wing reality-denying think tank...
And it's not Nazi apologia to acknowledge that a country other than Germany commited genocide
I agree with this. But thats not what we are talking about. Equivocating a famine resulting from an accident with a systematic murdering of the jewish people (along with ethnic minorities and communists) is to minimize the latter. Its like saying accidentally killing someone in a car accident is the same as capturing someone, storing them in your basement, and skinning them alive.
"I worship a state that commits genocides against minority groups but it's NOT THAT BAD I promise bro"
When did I say I worshipped China? I'm not saying its "not that bad", human rights violations are a disgrace anywhere, its more a matter of not buying into manufactured consent to sponsor yet another war for oil.
I honestly don't give a shit to bring up receipts because you are nobody that has any power and don't deserve to be taken any more seriously than this response, but yes I have and you can either investigate where this originates or not. I don't care. I am actually doing work and the only reason I am responding to you is out of amusement over your repeated defense of a transphobic chaser community. Your pick-me attitude is sad really.
These people are never going to accept us they use us as shields for their reactionary views.
I never said I supported anything distasteful the mod team did. I disapprove of their actions but they are the lesser evil here.
So we can agree the Holodomor happened and the Ugyhur Genocide is still happening?

Very mature of you
Civility went out the fucking window when yall called me a Nazi.
I don't think anyone called you a Nazi. A fascist, probably. A Nazi, no.
