I mean, Churchill was a massive racist. The famine in India killed approx. 2.1 million people.
But Zedong's policies led to a famine that killed approx. 36 million peoole, literally 10-15 times worse. It's nice that he grew his own veggies I guess but fuck me that's an insane failure of policy. If you managed to fuck up so bad you end up killing 36 million, I think it's fair to say you deserved the title of monster.
It killed far more - estimates go between 6 to 10 million. 2 million was the low end British estimate to make it seem not as bad.
Can you source that claim? The estimates I can find are between 0.8 and 3.8 million. There's outliers going up to 5-6, but I don't know where your 10 million comes from.
Where do your claims come from?
They're clearly sourced on Wikipedia. Your turn.
Oh ok. Mine are also clearly sourced in the Liberal Holy Scripture (Wikipedia) then.
So you have no sources, just vacuous claims.
Don't waste people's time then.
Lol. You fucking hypocrite.
a condescending dipshit. really shows that many accusations are just confessions.
