    It’s all connected. Countries want to donate less. Supply is smaller, not in small part thanks to Russia’s slaughter of Ukraine. The energy crisis that prompted costs rising, again, Russia. Greedy corporations increasing their slices of the pie at record rates at our time of need. Crops increasingly being lost due to the effects of the climate crisis.

    Not an exhaustive list, just what comes to mind at this moment.

    These problems are still workable but not with the current greed and zero-sum mindsets we get from our own population (e.g. the right in many countries letting out their fascism).

    While we argue and fight, millions starve. It’s not just a possible outcome, it’s already happening. People who refuse to acknowledge the climate crisis, people who support Russia, greedy corporations, etc. Their hands probably haven’t been as bloody since the colonial times.
