Says a lot that this comment got downvoted...

If the Armenian genocide would have the same amount of "advertising" as holocaust does it would be on the same level of "notoriety".

The media complex creates a very disproportionate cult around certain events: the holomodor claimed 2x lives as the holocaust and yet it's hardly ever mentioned.

Everyone knows of holocaust but most will go "huh?" when you ask them about holomodor.

Funny how history can spinned to make certain events world famous and others to dissapear.

“Holodomor” is mentioned all the time by the conservatives and neo-Nazis that made it a meme in the first place
As far as I can tell it is a historical event that actually happened (just like the Holocaust), so I'm not sure why you're trying to marginalize it by associating it with neo-Nazis (and conservatives, who I notice you're trying to smear by association).
