That logic about Stalin destroying the farms himself doesn't even work. The country needed the farms and crops as much as any other country building an army. Are you gonna say next that he ordered the eating of babies and kicking of dogs?

I'm not Stalinist btw, but history has facts, and landowners who were having their farms taken and wanted to make the communist party's life harder are a fact. Bourgeoisie will be bourgeoisie no matter which country.

so taking grain from starving families for dissent control was just a price you are willing to pay?

Starving families =/= massive landowners. The ones hit by the famine were the families working for the landowners, most of them owned no land at all. If you want to blame someone, blame rich folks being pissy about not being able to exploit families on their farms anymore

You are poorly educated, I hope you say this to someone from Kazakhstan or Ukraine off line lol

Likewise. I'd like to see how your "version of the facts" goes on the eastern countries. Have a good day.

If you were properly educated, you would know.

I know about how you, all the way from the west, consuming only western media and participating in western politics, knows more about the east than eastern folks themselves. All the eastern countries and the global south know about what western people believe.

You don't know shit about me or the history of eastern Europe, clearly.
