I'm not denying famine happened but the actual causes were not issues with communism or even related to communism but a mix of natural issues and hold over problems from the preceding years that left the country lacking agronomic knowledge and with a tradition of poor reporting to please feudal lords and landlords due to risk of retribution rather than convey accurate information.

If that's what you take to be reliable then honestly wow I have no words... it was also a direct reaction to Soviet development polices and of the single party state. Word salad. The industrialisation was but again industrialisation doesn't cause famine generally. The 3 core factors were natural events, lack of knowledge due to backwardness, and poor reporting traditions. And again none of these 3 things are communist. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [+] Egriaga@lemmy.ml -8 points 5 months ago (5 children) [removed by mod] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 5 child comments replies: [–] QinShiHuangsShlong@lemmy.ml 11 points 5 months ago (4 children) The fact you link Wikipedia to talk about how Wikipedia is reliable is genuinely amazing.

[–] QinShiHuangsShlong@lemmy.ml 10 points 5 months ago (3 children) That’s their citation standards they also have a page that says Wikipedia should not cite itself. Again what they say about themselves is irrelevant. The fact is they constantly cite RFA, scumbag frauds like Montefiore and other entirely unreliable or dare I say dogshit sources. The fact they say they really don't doesn't change that. We can’t forget about the anti-intellectual polices can we? What do you think lacking agronomic knowledge means? Are you a complete fucking idiot or have you not been reading what I've been saying? And still the one party state need to rapidly industrialize was a driving cause. And still this is meaningless words salad that says nothing about what actually caused the famine. Which was again lacking agronomic knowledge, natural disaster and poor reporting traditions. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [+] Egriaga@lemmy.ml -7 points 5 months ago (3 children) [removed by mod] permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] QinShiHuangsShlong@lemmy.ml 11 points 5 months ago (2 children) No it’s that the party promoted anti intellectual polices not just a lack of knowledge. What do you think leads people to promoting anti intellectual policy? Maybe the fact they lacked the knowledge to promote effective policy at the time due to the country being mostly made up of illiterate peasants? How are you this much of an idiot? Do you not think anything through before you post? inefficiency in a planned economy. So inefficient it brought the USSR from backwater to superpower in under 50 years and did the same for China.
