I was just saying how it came across to me. It really sounds like something made-up in the times for political gain like the secret baby-eating clubs of Qanon :)

But I do see some corpses have actually been found and it was corroborated by multiple sources. I wouldn't consider Kruchchev a reliable source either though for the reasons mentioned. But some other one syes.

Like I said it was just my personal feelings on the subject and this is not an encyclopedia but a discussion forum. We don't always have the ability to do a full study on each subject. And I never said I was an authority on it.

The reason baby-eating qanon cultist type BS works is because sometimes there is actually someone eating babies out there.

The difference between cultist and reality, is if the finger is being pointed in the right direction and to the right degree.

Nah I don't think anyone really eats babies. Never heard of it.

The texture doesn't have enough bite to it and the flavour is really bland.

I know you were joking - but here is one of many real examples [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abboud_and_Khajawa].

There are pointers to a lot of additional documentation in here too [https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child_cannibalism#CITEREFKin...], including from the Holodomir.

You’re ‘welcome’.
