    If it’s all Reagan’s fault, why did this cherry-picked post say the Soviets were being well fed in 1983?

      I mean, no one’s gonna post a 30 page paper from a social science journal in the memes comm.

      If you’d like a more nuanced discussion, you’re welcome to read The Years of Hunger: Soviet Agriculture, 1931–1933 by Davies and Wheatcroft (arguably the most detailed scholarly study and account of the Soviet Famine) and discuss it with the site on the literature or askchapo comms.
