This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.

This community is for posts about Marxism and geopolitics (including shitposts to some extent). Serious posts can be posted here or in /c/GenZhou. Reactionary or ultra-leftist cringe posts belong in /c/shitreactionariessay or /c/shitultrassay respectively.

We have a Matrix homeserver and a Matrix space. See this thread for more information. If you believe the server may be down, check the status on status.elara.ws.

There were many factors

  1. Natural factors because the year of the famine was not good for crops.

  2. Kulak factor resulted in destruction of crops and farm animals.

  3. Government incompetence in calculations and policy favouring cities over rural areas.

Keep in mind that once Collectivisation was in full effect, the famine situation in the USSR improved drastically.
