  1. a genocide implies an intentional killing based on targeted group's ethnicity. The hunger of 1932-33 was not intentional, it was caused by the planned economy and not only ukrainians died during it. Millions of russians and millions of kazakhs died as well, throwing them away from the picture just bleaches the hunger and makes it look a lot less horrible. "Holodomor" implies only what happened in ukraine during the hunger, but "the hunger of 1932-33" implies the whole hunger.

  4. it's not even "cultural appropriation" because the word "cultural appropriation" supposes that some cultures are owned by some ethnicities, but this is a lie. All cultures belong to all people. Every ethnicity would create any existent piece of culture if it was just given time for it. And all of the people are literally biologically related anyway, everyone is a family anyway, and a piece of culture of my relative is a piece of my culture as well

  5. ​​ @acidicsoda3355  not to some other, to all. 1 - Any ethnicity has a potential of creating katanas, kimonos and sushi thus I do not see the reason why it should considered exclusively japanese. It's just like in science, tesla invented the radio but if he did not, somebody else would invent it. The radio wouldn't be nonexistent without tesla. Just like sushi wouldn't be nonexistent without japan. 2 - literally everyone, every human, is a blood relative to the other humans. The culture of my relative is my culture.

  6. ​​​ @acidicsoda3355  1 - every ethnicity is able to create any piece if existing culture and it will if it's just given the time for it. It's like in science, tesla invented the radio, but if he didn't someone else would. Radio wouldn't be nonexistent without tesla just like sushi wouldn't be nonexistent without the japanese people. 2 - literally every human is a blood relative to literally all the other humans (mitochondrial eve). And a culture of my relative is my culture, obviously

  7. ​​​​ @acidicsoda3355  and what is about people like anton zaytsev? He is a popular tv guy and he is a black russian, his mother was white and his father was black and he was born and raised in russia. Doesn't russian culture belong to him, the one who was rised in it and the one who is related to the white people not through some far thousands of years, by directly, by birth, in the first generation, just because of his looks? Obama has a similar story. Doesn't "the culture of the white people" belong to him just because he has "a wrong face" despite that he is literally half white in the first generation? How can a person like anton zaytsev be denied the russian culture "because it is associated with a different racial group" when it's literally his by birth? this "association" point looks too ridiculous.

  8. saying "you can't dress/cook a certain way because you have a wrong race" is racism. Those people are just racists

  9. it is not "woke ideology" it is "racism ideology". They just create a new name for their ideology because they don't like the word "racists" but this is the historical name of their current ideology. It's called being racist, not "woke". Do not create a new word for an already existing term.

  10. I'm not an expert in japan but well, as I know japan is a pseudo democracy where only one party decides how to rule the country while the others' voices don't matter and there is also no freedom of media at all. You are either the government's media or you don't exist

  11. 18:00 the problem isn't even that such people constantly ask for a source of the information, but that they are unable to recognize any source they are shown. For example one person says "the moon is not made of cheese" and another person asks "where is a source for this?" and the first person says "well there were such and such observations" and the second persons CONTINUES! "but where is a source for this?", and what are you supposed to say? To explain the process of how the observations are made and proven? But then you will only hear "and where is a source for this" again! This is the nasty feature these people have. Not that they ask for a source but that they can't recognize a source when they see it and they ask for a source that would prove a source to be a source, and then for a source that would prove the source that proves the source they do not accept a source if there is no source for the source to be a source. It is a loop

  12. 11:40 they should know about the national nkvd operations and of the anti semite policy of the ussr and of the red khmers' genocide. Comunism is not about tolerance to people of other nations

  13. in your speech you mix a racial group and a cultural group. Nobody complains about the discrimination based on your culture, the problem is the discrimination that is based on your race. You literally just say "the racial discrimination isn't bad because look I have the arguments why cultural discrimination isn't bad. And a race and a culture are just the same thing", no, a race and a culture are not the same thing and you sound like a commie here. The problem is the racial discrimination, so what do you have to say about the RACIAL discrimination, not the cultural?

  14. there are not many non japanese people in japan. When the japanese stores and cafes have this rule "non japanese are not allowed" they lose nothing and those who don't gain nothing as well. That neglegible amount of tourists and born non asian people that are like 0,1% of the population don't affect the economy. These rules just make those who just "have a wrong face" feel bad and that's all. No economics involved. What you say doesn't wirk when there are simply not that many people that are targeted by the racist rules. They impact only this not native group of people making them feel miserable and forcing them to feel unwelcomed in their own country, the economy isn't affected imagine there are 12% of black people and some store doesn't want to serve the black people, it loses money. But if there are 0,5% of black people the store loses nithing, it just makes the black people feel miserable and disgusted and that's all.

  15. 5:19 the problem is, there is the hunger of 1932-1933 which was caused by the planned economy and millions of people died because of it. There was the same hunger caused in 20s because of the war comunism, there was the huge terrorism("great purge" in english), there was the genocide in cambodia, there was the cultural revolution etc. Tens of millions people died because of comunism, workers and peasants, but this picture tries to hide it it wants to say "what millions of peasants killed by comunism? No, look, only 4 people died and all of them weren't even normal people, but some government members from national socialist germany". The point of this picture isn't even to show that they are against the national socialists, but to hide those millions of normal people who suffered from comunism

  16. for me the biggest issue is that "holodomor" is just an ukrainian name for the part of the hunger of 1932-1933 and how it was going on in ukraine and that ukrainians say that the hunger was artificial, when in fact it was just started by the ineffectness of the planed economy, not of some stalin's evil intent. Calling the hunger of 1932-33 holodomor excludes millions of other people who died of it because they died outside of ukraine. And calling it a genoside bleaches comunism because it blatantly implies that not the economic system caused peoples' deaths but just an evil wish of one man, and comunism is kinda not there, like it isn't its fault, but simply stalin's. That is not true. The ussr committed many other actual genocides and there is no sense in making them up

  17. well reference to the authority is good and it's too bad that many people don't follow it. Imagine there is a social question and there are really smart people who found the solution to it. It may be not ideal, but it is a solution. And there are also stupid people, they are biologically unable to understand the question, they are uneducated on it. And instead of listening to the authority they choose to listen to their own easily refutable nonsense. And when you tell them "you are too stupid, you do not understand the question, you have not even spent any time researching it, except watching some one random video, just simply follow what the smart people say, any of their solutions is a cut above any you can produce yourself". And such people always just say "a reference to the authority doesn't count, lalala" when it is the only sane option they have in the reality. people way more often refuse to listen to the experts than to listen to them

  18. "famines were just common back then" meawhile never in the history russia had any hunger that would be even literally even half as terrible as the famines caused by the planned economy. Not in the 10th century, not in the 15th, not in 18th. The famines of such horribleness weren't common, they were unexistent even. Commies made something new, no famine killed as many people as the famines they caused in the entirety if the russia's history

  19. 4:47 well when I received a racial slur from the one who didn't even know me and then I was treated bad accordingly I'm pretty sure my appearance was the reason for this behavior. There is no problem at all to see the reason of a bad attitude you receive especially when those people who show it practically scream it out loud with zero disguises
