The article is actually decently well written good-faith satire meant to address how poverty and hunger are inherent to capitalism as a system. The title was just too bold lol

        Who would build any sort of factory if they did not know that many people would be available to take the jobs at low-pay rates

        Much of the hunger lirerarure talks about how it is important to assure that people are well fed so that they can be more productive. That is nonsense

        No one works harder than hungry people.

        […]well-nourished people are far less willing to do that work

        For those of us at rhe high end of the social ladder, ending hunger globally would be a disaster.

        I guess the irony is lost on me. Nothing here indicates that it’s wrong or should change. Also, you’re a huge asshole.

        Edit: in fact I know people (conservatives) who are totally fine with this arrangement. They are huge assholes too, huh isn’t that weird.

          yes. the irony is lost on you. it is… called satire. the author is making fun of the ridiculous state of the world by describing it as though it were normal, thus provoking outrage in the reader upon realizing that it is not.

          also i’m not the person you replied to. and even if that person was an asshole, being an asshole would not make them a conservative.

          you are just on a roll today, aren’t you?
