The Benefits of World Hunger
(lemmy.ml)
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
I think about this all the time.
All the "just a prank" folks.
All the "I'm just asking questions" folks.
The "It's just a thought experiment" folks.
"a modest proposal" was another banger on a similar topic
I’ve seen it firsthand from people before and I’m just like… why? Why do you think this way? It’s just cowardice at the end of the day. They’ll say those things because it’s an easy escape from being called out for having fucked views that allow fascism and corporate interests to flourish.
“I’m just asking questions” is so fucking annoying. You and I both know you’re not and you’re trying to frame this like you’re not the sociopath in this situation. It’s so disingenuous.
