Having large numbers of people starve to death seems like a pretty damning indictment of a system. But I dunno, maybe I’m overly attached to food?

    And 40 million sex-selective abortions happened under China’s one-child policy, 30 million starved during the 40-yr-famine and an additional 4 million outside Ukraine in the USSR. The problem isn’t communism/capitalism it’s authoritarian vs democratic.

      20 million people die from starvation, lack of access to clean water or preventable disease under capitalism EVERY YEAR.

      These are solvable problems but its not profitable. 1/3 of food produced globably is thrown away. We’ve plenty of solutions for access to water. Preventable disease, it’s in the name.
