Wikipedia claims 6million jews vs 15-55 million chinese starved in famine. So maybe it’s pushing it, but not by much.
Comment on .ml has got to be the only place on earth where I'd get downvoted for a comment like this
NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 1 month agoI think it just depends on which estimates you go off of. No one knows exactly how many people died in each, and while 10x is definitely pushing it, 5x would be more reasonable.

While they were one of the most prominently targeted, Jewish people were not the only victims the Holocaust. Somewhere between 11-20 million people in total were murdered by the Nazis.

More than that as well, 24 million people in Russia alone

And chinese weren’t the only victims of communism.

A famine caused by mismanagement is a damn sight different from the deliberate and industrialized mass-extermination of entire ethnic groups.

Don’t forget millions of girls that went “missing” between 1980 and 2015. This number is also likely higher than the holocaust. Unimaginable.

For sure, it’s not really apples to apples. I just don’t really know what you mean by “Holocaust revisionism” in this context.

Comparing the Holocaust to something that isn’t a genocide, in seriousness and not in jest.
