So much for 2021 being a fresh start.

Sorry, Comrade. I didn't know that the Party has declared a new Reality.

You arrogant, stupid ass.

EVERY famine since 1900 has been caused by governments using starvation as a political weapon. Modern logistics allows mass production and transportation of food everywhere in the world. Russia, Holland, postwar Europe, China, Ethiopia, Venezuela were not starved by acts of nature, but deliberate policy. It's just a matter of administrative desire.

Africa ran out all the productive farmers, and the eco-terrorists banned insecticide spraying. They are going to starve, while the government runs off to the Cayman Islands.

China's Three Gorges boondoggle, the largest dam in the world, designed and built by Good Party Members, has failed to control the flooding. Meanwhile, stupids like you are going to blame the famine on the Crocodile Gods, or Capitalism.

Yeah, I had a hard time taking this article seriously, with the number of times it mentioned things having already happened in 2021. Either their proof-reader screwed up, or this article was released a year early.

Copyediting and proofreading on the Internet have already reached the death spiral.

So you’re saying it’s all because of Catastrophic Anthropogenic Global Warming (CAGW)?

< /s>, I suppose.

It’s been at about that level for most of the year.

Don’t eat the very old. They are tough, stinky and chewy plus there isn’t much meat on them. Plus side is if they is old, they probably don’t have HIV, Hep-C .... got to weight the pros and cons on aged beef um meat.

Firearms are generally recognized as being effective at “leveling the playing field”.

Especially when the user is not known to have them.

My family farms. OK, but not great ground. Would be great if irrigated. It averages 175 bushels/acre year over year. 30 years ago, it was a miracle to break 100/acre. The gains have been made by going from 36” rows to 30” for corn plus the seeds are planted much closer together. Way more chemicals and fertilizer used today.

My uncle will walk out in a field and pick an ear. He shells some, gives it a tooth test and does counts. He counts how many rows of kernels and how many kernels per row. Soon he will give results. “It will be ready next week and make 180/acre.” The individual ears, of which there are many more per acre than years past, are generally almost 2X the size and length they used to be.

Also interesting that some countries sold their whole harvest to China; and, now in turn, seek to replenish their empty storage silos from the U.S. harvests. Check soybean futures.

Stopped reading when his main source is the UN and he quotes CNN.
