I don't understand how that counters "Winner writes the history".

If the winner wouldn't write history it wouldn't be a problem to talk about

- Holodomor in Russia

- the genocide on the Armenians in Turkey.

I look at history as what the world thinks rather than just one country, and still Armenian Genocide history was a close call. Took a long time for other countries (over 100y for the US) to recognize it due to fear of retaliation, and Ottoman Empire was debatably not even a "winner."
