No one denies the fact that the people of the Soviet Union experienced a famine from 1932 to 1933. Rather, we argue against the anti-communist conspiracy that claims that the famine was a deliberate policy aimed at suppressing the nationalist spirit of the Ukrainian people. (1/7)

The working class of this country will not settle for "both parties are the same" or "voting is useless." This is nonsense. We have too much on the line in this election: voting rights, abortion, trans rights, union rights. Vote like your life depends on it. Because it does.

The reality is that the collectivization of agriculture in the Soviet Union was one of the greatest achievements of socialism. The beneficiaries of this project, the Soviet people, who lived longer, ate more calories, and saw the elimination of periodic famines. (7/7)

The reality is that the Soviet Union suffered periodic famines for more than a millennium due to economic backwardness and complex environmental factors. In an effort to overcome this backwardness, the CPSU introduced a policy aimed at the socialization of agriculture. (3/7)

Through rationing systems (and other large-scale relief campaigns), the USSR managed to feed more than 50 million people, which enabled them to produce a large harvest in 1933 thus put an end to famines in the Soviet Union, with an exception in 1946. (6/7)

This combined with the region’s susceptibility to famine resulted in a situation wherein the government procured less food than it had in years prior. This created an environment wherein hunger and related disease existed, particularly in Ukraine and Kazakstan. (5/7)
