The 1929 collectivization drive was kicked together with the first 5-year economic plan of the Soviet Union, which drove a growth of 10%+ in economic output YEARLY during the following decade.

I didn't know socialists were GDP-obsessed neoliberals here, socialism is good because it outpaces capitalism in GDP growth? How nice.

and they had 10 years to make up for it or they would be crushed. 10 years later, Nazis invaded the Soviet Union.

And five years before that, Stalin was collaborating with the Nazis. Strange.

If it hadn’t been for the industrial boom made possible by the rapid collectivization of agriculture, the Soviets would have lost to the Nazis, leading to the extermination of tens of millions of Eastern Europeans according to the Generalplan Ost, ideologically

And at the same Stalin was deporting millions as part of his policy of russification. Do you apologize for all the other Allied Powers war crimes during WW2 as well? Critical support to FDR and the USA war machine?

they were the consequence of lack of knowledge and of hurries to do the first successful complete collectivization of land of a nation in human history.

Socialism is when the government does stuff
