An addendum to that first point-from some statistics I've seen IIRC in Montefiore and other post-1991 sources the death toll in Kazakhstan was as much as 25% of the total population. Unless the AA killed a quarter of the population of an entire US state in peacetime then you indeed made mass murder the moral equal of FDR's Administration. And this is without factoring in the Holodomor. Unless the AA deliberately starved American farmers, you are indeed proclaiming mass murder is the equal of something it is not remotely akin to.
And now I predict you will in fact claim FDR *did* murder 10 million Americans through the New Deal in lieu of admitting you were wrong. Or alternately this will be another conversation to come up in the future because you'll claim your direct words meant nothing of what I'm responding to without ever saying what they do mean.
