About two years ago, I had an argument with a random dude who was vehemently denying the fact that it was effectively Churchill and the decisions of the British government that caused the Bengal famine - there was a lot of back and forth, a lot of citing.

Ultimately he came to the conclusion that the famine happened not because of the British, no Churchill was a saint - it was because of lack of biological "food storage" within Bengalis or some bullshit.
