Daily reminder that 12 million US children are food insecure on this day.
Daily reminder that China has fewer people in poverty than the US despite having 4x the population.
That’s right, they’re not just better on poverty per capita, but straight up number of people in poverty!
(But communism doesn’t work)
And where do they get the balanced nutrition from? And how is it then distributed around the country? And how does the government pay those supply chains? Sanctions cripple the economy completely making every step extremely difficult.
It’s like some people never feel obligated to learn about, or think through, anything they say.
Wow, this person is a fucking genius. If you don’t have the resources to feed your people then just stop being a country! That’ll solve it! Just go “yes hello we are not country anymore” and like by magic, food for everyone 🙂

prob like 95% of all nations rely on food imports lol. even those who are net exporters like the US utilize imports, and couldn’t even maintain their own food systems without importing migrant labor
What trade deals do they imagine are being negotiated while under sanctions
This is on Wolfballs. You know, the neonazi instance. What did you expect?
Excuse me it’s an apolitical freeze peach instance
Nah nah bro, if you choose to permit racism, homophobia, etc, on your platform, that in itself is a political stance, and that stance is almost always fascism. Allowing or disallowing hate is intrinsically political, there’s no way around it. If you say anything about free speech, supportive, critical, or otherwise, that’s political.
Japan should not be a country, then. Good to know.
“If I lock you in a crate and you starve to death, it’s your own fault. Should have managed your finances better.”
They should seize privatized food distributors in order to meet food sufficiency. If the private institutions fails to meet its function according to expectation they shouldn’t exist and should be absorbed by the collective body.
“A country has no excuse to not feed itself!”
Country seizes private assets from the 1% to feed the 99%
“Wait, not like that”
What instance is this?
Wolfballs
Also @AgreeableLandscape@lemmy.ml he has a Lemmy.ml account, ban him from Lemmy.ml? https://lemmy.ml/u/masterofballs we spoke about this vaguely, but if you look at his posts on wolfballs main they’re a lot worse that this screenshot. Example, the sidebar there.
it was clearly a good choice to explicitly defederate from that instance
Wow. I wasn’t even aware he had a lemmy.ml account. I’ve banned him because I think he should be, but IDK if some of the other admins might disagree.
Nice!
He’s actually also a contributor to Lemmy. He does have an account on lemmy.ml, but all he posts from that account is in accordance with the rules of the instance. I don’t see why he should be banned.
My xboss had a similar argument about not firing a guy who’d beat his wife at home

As a Canadian, I don’t buy that Canada has such a high SSR.

I’m not exactly sure because I don’t have the patience to read the whole thing but the study from which numbers are from seem to only take into account cereals and starchy roots because it was an Africa-centric study. I don’t know if they included rice or not because it is a very important staple.
