For some reason, Greece is full of Jewish "holocaust monuments", while Israel refuses to acknowledge the genocide of the Christian (Armenian, Greek, Assyrian) population of Asia Minor and the role Jews of Salonica played in the Young Turks.

Bingo! Also, I wonder why we won't hear about the many millions killed in the Bolshevik revolution but the holocaust is a religious symbol for the masses.

It's really surprising how the same people who are so fervent about holocaust pretend that Holodomor or Katyn never happened.

Some scholars believe that the famine was planned by Joseph Stalin to eliminate a Ukrainian independence movement

Stalin was one of the few to ever punish antisemitism with the death penalty. That is the utopia Israel wants. That is what "freedom" and "democracy" in the Middle East looks like.

Thousands of the Greeks of Crimea were sent by Stalin and Beria to exile in Kazakhstan, many perished in the trains transfering them and even more when they arrived as they suffered the extremely harsh conditions of the gulags. This happened along the deportation of Tatars, which is more often mentioned. The Tatars were deported upon accusation of collaboration with the Germans, but the Greeks had remained loyal to the Allies and their deportation was totally unjustified and unexpected.

Yet, the politicians who cry over "the Jews who were driven to the train to Auschwitz" and use it to justify their decrying of "antisemitism" are the same who refuse to condemn the Stalinist crimes.

There is a well-documented and well-supported conspiracy theory about the tartars. It starts with this map as an introduction:

Which is kind of mind blowing. Why wouldn't you know about such a huge empire!? And it existed just 200 years ago?
Then it introduced you to declassified CIA documents that talk about the "russian" communists rewriting the history of Tartaria.
And then it goes on and on with historical sources.

The thing is once you go down this rabbit-hole then you realize that Tartaria is on every single old map and that it's mentioned in every single history book thats older than communism. From marco polo, to britannica, to anything.

But go to wikipedia and "Tartaria was just a vast area, not an empire". In fact all history books and old maps are wrong and it's because they were stupid back then. Yes, this is literally the mainstream argument. They didn't know better back then but now we do.
