Cowbee@lemmy.ml 3 weeks agoNo, China and the Soviet Union are not genocidal nor settler-colonies, which leads me to believe you have no idea what that even means.

Yeah, ask Ukraine. Or Estonia. Or Latvia. Or Belarus. Or Lithuania. Or Poland. Or Czechia. Or Hungary. But what’s a few genocides and a dozen colonies, right?
Cowbee@lemmy.ml 3 weeks ago
None of these were genocides or colonies under the USSR. You do not know what these words mean.

They just went on vacation and took their tanks.
And holodomor, katyń, and others where just disagreements.

You have a cartoonish understanding of how the USSR worked. The 1930s famine, as I already stated, was a result of poor weather conditions combined with underdeveloped, still-feudal agricultural practices. Katyn was neither settler-colonialism nor genocide, but was most likely committed by the Nazis given that the ammo was German, the execution method Nazi, and manufacturing dates of the ammo happened at a time when the Soviets could not have accessed them.
