MODERATORS
Yes, because they would much rather undergo another Holodomor.
Russian mercy is well understood.
Please engage with contemporary, mainstream historians who have studied the now open Soviet archives. I recommend R. W. Davies and Stephen G. Wheatcroft, The Years of Hunger: Soviet Agriculture, 1931-1933. You can just read the introduction (all but the first edition) where they discuss and go into detail on Holodomor as genocide. It’s in English and pretty accessible to lay people. The rest of the book will likely be of no interest to you, as it’s part of a series of very dry academic publications by the authors that goes into the minutiae of Soviet agriculture. If that interests you, go for it.
This book is in libgen.
Saying the holodomor was a genocide is the same as saying the dust bowl was a genocide.
More like saying the Indian or Irish famines were a genocide.
