Yes. Most people don't want to eat other people. I would expect the explicit cannibalism to clue you in to a level of irony there.
Genocide has to be at least a bit deliberate, and generally they just fucked up their economy bad enough agriculture was negatively effected. In the USSR's case at least, the starvation affected the republics pretty equally, too. As Ukrainians were starving so were Khazaks. For political reasons, some parties have tried to make it sound like a targeted ethnic thing, but it just wasn't, and it certainly wasn't on purpose.
This is the part where the communists come out with capitalism's death toll. Dumb ideology, maybe, evil ideology no, at least not on it's own.
Edit: Also, I take issue with not counting all of WWII as part of the Nazi death count, since they very deliberately made it happen. Consider this was in the space of just a few years, vs. an entire human lifetime for the Soviets.
Well I'm glad we can at least agree that genocide isn't ideal and generally a suboptimal way to solve any problems.
No, you can't count all of WWII as Nazi death count, that would be quite unprofessional. Count the WWII deaths caused by Axis powers if you want.
For a war historian, maybe. From an ethical culpability perspective I think it's fair. Hitler started that thing and dragged everyone else along kicking and screaming.
Maybe WWII would have happened "spontaneously" the same way WWI did eventually, but Europe was still getting over the first one, and so it was a couple decades away at least.
