A famine where millions died despite there being enough food, but the food was stolen by muscovites? No, there wasn’t.

No? There was mass weather disaster, combined with kulaks destroying grain and killing livestock to sabotage collectivization. Once it became known that there were conditions for famine, grain was redirected. Why would they intentionally starve people? Do you think every previous famine in similar conditions was also deliberate?

Why do Israelis intentionally starve Palestinian people?
Cowbee@lemmy.ml 1 week ago
Because Israel is a genocidal settler-colonial project and it needs them to die off to exist. This is nothing like the Soviet Union, which needed developed agriculture, which is why they collectivized and stopped the worst of the famine. What is your point? Why would they intentionally starve people? Do you think every previous famine in similar conditions was also deliberate?
Answer deliberately and clearly, you seem to be allergic to making a coherent point.
