Go China!

Is Ash Sarkar still a part of Novara? She seemed pretty cool.

Not a book, but reading this article from the Monthly Review about Mao's Great Leap Forward. Some of the arguments against Mao are similar to those put forward in Fraud, Famine, and Fascism.

I read that as Hispanic Weapon and I got really worried.

This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks!

Finally finished Fraud, Famine, and Fascism. Really informative in understanding where the Holodomr myth came from. It did lead me to wonder: are the Nazis in the current Ukrainian government the continuation of the OUN the book mentions?

I didn't even know this was possible.

I liked this from Fraud, Famine and Fascism: (Referring to someone visiting Ukraine in 1941) " 'One can come across an ordinary village girl ... during our talk we discover that the girl is well-versed in mathematics, physics, chemistry ... People are well informed. One could discus any political or social theme with the peasants.' One can only wonder what kind of 'genocide results in such cultural and educational advances."

I don't think removing downvotes is a good idea either. You remember how everyone reacted when Youtube removed dislikes?

As an environmentalist, eating meat is probably the most immoral thing I do. I eagerly look forward to the day where we don't have to kill animals to eat meat.

I just recently started Fraud, Famines, and Fascism. Pretty interesting so far!

Apparently China and North Korea are "hostile states".
