@Yusa you make a claim about kulaks and then go on to talk about what kulaks are

2020-01-29 18:12:47 UTC  

for convicts

2020-01-29 18:12:52 UTC  

But your stat is wrong

2020-01-29 18:13:04 UTC  

You have a stat about gulags and then go on to describe kulaks

2020-01-29 18:13:08 UTC  

They’re different things

2020-01-29 18:13:16 UTC  

Who me?

2020-01-29 18:13:19 UTC  

No

2020-01-29 18:13:24 UTC  

Oh

2020-01-29 18:13:33 UTC  

@Deleted User Hmm, let me check that really quick

2020-01-29 18:14:19 UTC  

@Deleted User Nope, my stat is correct

2020-01-29 18:14:40 UTC  

Yea the Kulaks were a groups of landowners and bourgeoisie that started burning the crops and killing the livestock when collectivisation started

2020-01-29 18:14:53 UTC  

Lol so you’re just talking about peasant villages?

2020-01-29 18:14:57 UTC  

You feel that’s a relevant stat?

2020-01-29 18:15:12 UTC  

Like are you just talking about the harvest of sorrow?

2020-01-29 18:15:53 UTC  

Which pretty much caused the death of a lot of Ukrainians following the famine

2020-01-29 18:16:17 UTC  

@Deleted User Did you look it up? Google will give you the same stat

2020-01-29 18:16:18 UTC  

So, the harvest of sorrow was really a centralized urbanization plan

2020-01-29 18:16:46 UTC  

@Yusa it’s very possible you’re using a source that made the same mistake

2020-01-29 18:16:52 UTC  

They are often confused

2020-01-29 18:17:12 UTC  

But the idea of “x people died in the kulaks” is like saying “x people died in the countryside”

2020-01-29 18:17:16 UTC  

Not really it was a plan to stop a famine that happened every 5-7 years

2020-01-29 18:17:24 UTC  

@Boo uuuuh no.

2020-01-29 18:17:25 UTC  

Which was successful

2020-01-29 18:17:34 UTC  

Just factually inaccurate

2020-01-29 18:17:38 UTC  

@Deleted User Can you link me to your source? I googled it and all the sources I found agree with my stat

2020-01-29 18:17:38 UTC  

uhhhhh yes

2020-01-29 18:17:44 UTC  

Factually accurate

2020-01-29 18:17:50 UTC  

Am I arguing with a tankie and a Nazi here

2020-01-29 18:18:00 UTC  

I can get the stats real quick if you doubt me

2020-01-29 18:18:10 UTC  

It's not that hard to get

2020-01-29 18:18:18 UTC  

@Yusa you’re missing my point. Your argument doesn’t follow from your stat

2020-01-29 18:18:35 UTC  

@Boo yeah, I’m sure there wasn’t famine after everyone died. I’m telling you the policy goal.

2020-01-29 18:19:02 UTC  

Everyone? So like everyone suddenly just gone poof in Ukraine?

2020-01-29 18:19:21 UTC  

@Deleted User Did you read my whole post?

2020-01-29 18:19:27 UTC  

No, Stalin hauled away all the grain and equipment as part of his urbanization plan

2020-01-29 18:19:30 UTC  

And millions died

2020-01-29 18:19:37 UTC  

Not “gone poof”

2020-01-29 18:19:42 UTC  

They starved to death

2020-01-29 18:19:48 UTC  

Again wrong but really if you doubt me I can get you the stats and documents

2020-01-29 18:19:58 UTC  

Read a Robert Conquests’ Harvest of Sorrow

2020-01-29 18:20:09 UTC  

Sure, I’d love to see population stats for Ukraine
