@Infrogmation @SaanichGuy @StillIRise1963 As did #Russia (#SovietUnion, technically) in #Ukraine during the #Holomodor #genocidal #famine under #Stalin in the 1930's.
Famine as #warfare and #genocide has a long, rich, ongoing #history.

This song/album can pretty much sums up my summer of 94 as it was constantly on the car stereo in some ones car when we were out and about.

Somebody can and did produce #lastofus and it becomes a hit. You'd think these media companies would stop acting like the fountain has run dry when it comes to material. marry the real life horror of #MrJones to #lastofus, expand entertaining with informing. Too many people think horrors in this world are just far fetched fiction. fiction can't compete with the terrible things people really do.
In fact, the only unpleasant thing at all about Lady Jane's new situation is the cantankerous, obstinate caretaker, Mr. Jones. Others on the estate tell her that he dislikes her changes and would rather things be left as they are.
And -- so strange -- she herself has never seen or spoken with Mr. Jones.

**It was very tough to source this one online, and the one I did find is not great -- I'd recommend listening to this one.

RT @VassosF: Agnieszka Holland's Mr. Jones (2019) is an important (and sadly, currently relevant) film about the Ukraine famine in the early 30s. And Vanessa Kirby is always excellent. #MrJones #VanessaKirby
