I just discovered that Radical Reviewer believes the western account of the 1932 Ukranian famine, and I could not be more disappointed.

    Yeah, i read it but i'm more susceptible to believe books that were written by people who were there than 4 line screenshots from Twitter.

      https://books.google.com/books/about/The_Makhnovshchina_1917_1921.html?id=cMCEnQAACAAJ

      this is the source used... what is your expert criticism of the source? or will you dismiss it out of hand because the warlord Makhno isn't getting his typical hagiography?

          all you have is Arshinov's hagiography. We can look at Makhno in a more critical way today lol
