ok so how many do you think died in the holodomor

I have a source on that actually

using it as a metaphor.. do you know what a metaphor is?

probs more than recorded..

1931-33 Famine Mortality
http://www.melgrosh.unimelb.edu.au/documents/SGW-UkranianFamine_mortality.pdf

we got like 4.5 to 6 million

6?

it seems to claim 1.6 mil? I just skimmed.

its estimates vary

but its in the millions

link doesnt work for me

Does this link work?

same

Oh.

Yes the holodomor happened

it killed millions due to the forced collectivisation

This isn’t even in the USSR

A unfree economy always provides a much worse life

we havent even got onto Mao yet

oh yeah

They bring up the “life expcentcy went up “ argument

the great chinese famine is much better recorded

@sɪᴅɪsɴᴏᴛʜᴇʀᴇ get the fuck out

Yet the stats are from Mao itself

so it’s unreliable

we have UN population figures

Wait what does it show

the Great Leap forward even stopped world population growth

And where did the U.N. get it from

lemme find it

Cause if they got it from the state it’s unreliable

But if it shows a decline it’s probably true

My source clearly shows that the famine was in lower numbers of areas where collective farming was practiced

in mao's famine?

also they had grain fines and confiscation

Where is this source

The one by Harvard that I posted earlier in Holodomor

https://data.worldbank.org/indicator/SP.POP.TOTL?locations=CN

anyway we got one here from the world bank

now he is gonna say this is unreliable so there are others
