      If maximizing evil is the goal, killing the baker is the best thing you can do. Those people will eat some temporary bread and then go on starving. What’s worse, is more people will starve as well.

        But then you need to set up a cult to keep on killing bakers, because there are incentives for someone else to take up the mantle.

          or you take over operations, adulterate the bread with sawdust while selling the good stuff only to the 1% who can afford it. Also, maybe make it an overpriced subscription, where in order to have the privilege of buying bread, you also have to pay per loaf, too.

          If that sounds like corpo-shit… that’s because it is.

            Then you might as well lightly poison the regular bread to keep the poor feeling like shit and preventing them from improving their life. You can still sell the premium, non-poisoned bread to the rich.

              also placing some of the antidote into “herbal” remedies. to make even more money off them.

        Killing the baker isnt the best thing you can do

        Start a cult where no one is allowed to eat bread, having to make all bread poisonous and placing it in a line

        You would waste more resources compared to just killing the baker and reduce the risk of another person becoming the baker
