Celebrating Holocaust by Hunger: Stalin portraits displayed in Russian-occupied Ukraine



The Russian-proxy government in occupied Ukraine is now showing their true colors by proudly installing giant portraits of Russian dictator Joseph Stalin around the occupied city of Donbass. Stalin, one of the worst mass murderers in history, actually intentionally starved the Ukrainian people to death for seeking independence in what is known as the "Holocaust by Hunger". A quarter of the Ukrainian people died during the genocide. It cannot be overstated what it means to put up Stalin's portrait on the streets of Ukraine--Godwin is appropriate here, it's like Hitler portraits in Berlin. The Russian gov't is getting pretty clear about their intentions.
