Your source is discussing famine specifically, not starvation overall. It even touches on this while talking about economic entitlements in one of the middle sections. It does seem to be true that many fewer people died of famine than starvation in general because of capitalist failures of distribution.

Try again.

Jesus fucking Christ, you didn't even read the section you claimed to. Did you just see 'economic entitlement' and decide to make up what you wanted it to say in your head?

I read the entire paper. Sorry I used the wording in the paper to make a point about what the paper doesn't talk about.

That section was discussing how the four economic factors are compounded by famine and can contribute to famine.

In five minutes, you read some 8,000 words.

lmao.

You're not even trying to be believable.

Yes, I'm also sorry that you're trying to use the wording in the paper to make implications that are not only not addressed by the paper, but directly contradicted in places.

Jesus Christ. You didn't even skim it.
