Going to note that you very much do not seem to be nearly as critical of NATO's famines, including one NATO has caused outside of its core territory, and including the famines the empire actually engineered (which I don't see how one can argue to not be genocides).

The collectivisation which removed experienced farmers to work on lands

In what way were the experienced farmers removed from farm work via the collectivisation? Going to also note that, outside of WW2, people didn't experience any famines until 1990s.
Also, in what way would this make the famine a genocide as you claim?

along with Lysenko’s deliberate ignoring of established agricultural science in exchange to his whatever supposedly science he conjured up with, led to the worst famine since the Irish Famine

What does Lysenko have to do with the famine of 1932?

    Nobody is denying "NATO famine" (sure you are not a Russian bot for using the word NATO), but shills such as yourself do love to deny that famines didn't happen or downplay the severity in communist states. Such at the fact that you mentioned "didn't experience any famines until 1990s". When did the Great Chinese Famine happen under Mao?

    How's the view from St Petersburg Research, comrade? You must be working hard on the weekend to even reply to a petty comment like mine, so that you will not be sent to the front lines to Ukraine.

    Famines, plural.
    And yeah, considering how much you like to complain about the last famine not caused by WW2 in the territory of the USSR, but fail to bring up the famines that were happening previously in the same places, as well as the famines that happened in the 1990s, as well as famines that have been happening under NATO and pre-NATO empires, it's pretty clear that you are just engaging in atrocity propaganda on behalf of invaders of Iraq and Afghanistan.

    sure you are not a Russian bot for using the word NATO

    Oh, cute. "You use the word 'NATO' to more correctly group the aggressors together, so I will claim you are an untermensch".

    But hey, sure. What word would be better in this context than "NATO"? Do you prefer "European powers", or, maybe, "invaders of Iraq and Afghanistan"?

    but shills such as yourself

    I'm not the one spreading Nayirah's testimony and other similar atrocity propaganda made by nazis.

    do love to deny that famines didn’t happen or downplay the severity in communist states

    Which famines do you think I denied? Which famines did I downplay the severity of?

    Such at the fact that you mentioned “didn’t experience any famines until 1990s”. When did the Great Chinese Famine happen under Mao?

    When did the Chinese famine happen in the USSR? When was Mao in the government of the USSR?

    Also, were famines a repeated thing in the PRC after that, or was that a single disaster (which happened in a country that was recovering from colonialism by the European powers and Japan) that the PRC learned from and managed to deal with in the future?

    How’s the view from St Petersburg Research, comrade?

    How's the view from Abu Ghraib's chief torturer office?
