He's one of those dumb shit "historians" that draws false equivalence between the holocaust (a targeted industrial genocide) and the famine in the USSR known as the 'holodomor' because it's convenient for liberalism to apply idealism to history because materialism is a bridge too far. It inconveniences their narrative.
