It’s really shameless how the US actively messes with people’s food and the ability of the land to produce said food in order to benefit short term capital gains, while also pointing the finger at last-of-their-kind famines experienced under fledgling workers states as some sort of trump card.
Even now 10% of US households don’t always have enough to eat. US foreign policy is in large part designed to starve people and keep others under threat of being starved. Farmland is being destroyed in the name of quick profits.
Meanwhile China has incredible stockpiles of grains just in case the worst happens, and they have prioritized national food security and self-sufficiency as a matter of national security.
The genocidal Dust Bowl was the personal fault of H. Hoover and FDR. They waved their wands of dryness and directly caused the droughts.
Oh, I always thought it was forbidden Colonizer magic that did it, I didn’t know it was just wands of dryness :o
You have to use forbidden Colonizer magic to create the wands of dryness
[Unbearable desire to make a lame dirty joke]
unironically the dust bowl was the result of the genocide of native peoples & homesteading policies, not natural processes.
but these were over the duration of several decades, not a single presidential administration.
