    Proletarians work for a wage, peasants do not. The undocumented immigrants on USA farms are proletarians.

    Your main claim was that, the Soviet Union “collective” farming system caused famine; but in reality it was just the conversion from traditional feudal peasant farming to modern capitalist farming, entirely orchestrated by the state.

    Modern farms are already “collectivized” and so your claim does not hold water or is at best accurate but completely irrelevant to the modern day.
