The protesters, who were with anti-war group Code Pink, were advocating for Ukrainian, Russian and U.S. leadership to negotiate an end to the war.

    Literally not even liberal historians believe that. See: Conquest, Wheatcroft, Davies, Applebaum.

            Hoe about you actually go look at academics instead of citing corporate media

              @OurToothbrush my history books Aldo mention the starvation devastation Stalin visited upon the Ukrainian population. It is a matter of historical record, witnessed and verified. What about it do you doubt?

                Not according to noted anti-communist historians like Conquest, Wheafcroft and Davies, even fucking Applebaum. Have you read something outside a highschool textbook?

                  @OurToothbrush Yes. History is not my primary subject, but I have three degrees and trust the foremost experts on the subject. https://holodomor.ca/resources/documents-and-sources/documents/

                    Having three degrees does not make you more knowledgeable on subjects you dont have knowledge in.

                    You obviously do not have the tools to identify the foremost experts. You have been terrible at identifying credible resources, youre last round has been: book review of a book by an author who has made comments that it isnt a genocide, an encyclopedia, a news article about a vote by a European parliament, and a list of English translated letters that don’t show evidence it was a genocide. None are anywhere close to as credible as the well respected mainstream historians who studied this, thought it was a genocide, and then said “no, actually it wasn’t” after the undemocratic dissolution of the USSR when more internal documents became available for them.

                    As for the vote you reference, that event was actually mentioned by this well respected western Jewish historian and activist in his article on holocaust trivialization:

                    https://jewishcurrents.org/the-double-genocide-theory

                    You should read it so you understand the political implications of the claim you are making and how it connects to denying the holocaust.
