Ending hunger by 2030 would cost just $93 billion a year — less than one per cent of the $21.9 trillion spent on military budgets over the past decade, according to the UN World Food Programme (WFP).

      States do not care about their citizens. They only care about preserving their own power

      Objectively false. The state is a concept that can and has been changed repeatedly. It’s not some universal truth you can make such statements about.

      That is how it has happened every time.

      Not an accurate statement since there has never been an attempt without massive interference. Also not an accurate description since you are clearly thinking about a system i did not describe. I described a completely different system than those you’re likely thinking of

      totalitarian state

      What the actual fuck are you talking about. Nobody ever talked about a totalitarian state. I simply talked about state owned agriculture working in a not for profit fashion. And only to produce staple foods. Really not that different from socialized medicine.

      WE WILL FIGHT YOU TO THE DEATH

      Seems like a sane and reasonable response the the suggestion that maybe we should just try to feed people without trying to make money off of them.

      Honestly this reply is unhinged
