First of all, to attribute deaths solely to one individual (even to Hitler) denies anyone else responsible of their free will in doing so.
Fair, but this is just kind of a thing we do with language.
If we can’t agree that millions of people in the USSR were killed, sent to gulags, and died of famine during Stalin’s leadership, then I’m not sure there’s anything worth discussing.
Similarly, the article you linked about 7 million US deaths in the great depression doesn’t even take itself seriously. It’s just trying to discredit counts for deaths in the Holodomor. I suspect you don’t think that many people died as a result of the great depression, and, if you’re not going to argue in good faith, then again I believe we are at an impasse.
Finally, there is no need for name-calling. While I do not consider “lib” nearly as much an insult as you likely intend it, I would still not categorize myself as such.

Unfortunately, I’m suspecting that whatever your sources are similarly aren’t arguing in good faith, but since you won’t provide them, I can’t know for sure.

I don’t intend it as an insult, but if you’re actually a socialist, I apologize. I hope though if you were, that you might consider that the US has a clear bias against socialism, so it’s pretty hard to consider it a trustworthy source on this matter at face value. There’s not a neutral party, but we should at least consider what the other side is saying instead of just blindly accepting the US government narrative.

Can we agree that millions of people in the USA were killed, sent to gulags, and died of famine during FDR’s leadership?
And do you think that people died during the Holodomor?
Thanks for finishing where I couldn’t, comrade.
I would suggest we shouldn’t, even arguing with libs, refer to the Soviet famine that way, since it gives credence to Holocaust denial.
Good point, will avoid it in future.
