Here in Kumgang land, the famine was caused by farmers burning their crops down! Also, Bernie Sanders won the popular vote in 2016, the most-worshipped god in America is Queztacoatl, and polar bears are black.
Yes, Stalin tried to improve crop yields, by insisting every farmer across the entire Soviet Union do things he once heard some farmer was doing. Not sure if he even heard if the farmer was successful, but now basically every farmer in the entire USSR had to do the same things, no matter where they were, what climate they had, or even what crops they were growing. If the Ukrainians actually did burn the crops in protest, it’s because they knew they were going to fail to meet quotas anyway, because they were required to do crap that wouldn’t work for their crops in their climate, and Stalin’s Politburo would fucking listen.
More likely the famine was caused by requiring the same techniques for all crops, all climates, all soils, even all specific events throughout the growing season, and several farmers ending up falling short because they followed the Kremlin’s orders rather than doing what they knew was best for their farm, because for the farmers entire nations going hungry better than they themselves getting shot.

And also, brown means stop and pink means go, there’s a Revenge Of The Nerds remake where the nerds and the jocks are forced to join up against terrorists, the most popular fast food is elephant meat burgers and George Floyd survived.
Stalin tried increasing farm output, by applying the ideas of Lysenko.

Yes, farmers burned their own crops because they were so stupid and wanted to be mean and protest poor nice innocent Mr. Stalin. Yeah, that’s definitely what happened. He never sent in people to steal grain so people starved, never.
Confused?
