    Yeah, I don’t think that’s actually the main reason the people of Gaza are starving right now.

      Indeed, current famine is mostly due to war.

      But food poverty, people skirting the edge of hunger, are affected by this.

      We saw this when Putin invaded Ukraine and ruined the massive export of grains to developing countries and aid agencies.

      And, indirectly, these animal farmers are making food crops less attractive, thus leading to less production of food crops, which means less food to give to aid agencies (assuming that the aid can reach those who need it).

        Sorry, I apparently wasn’t being direct enough, let me try again; it’s gross to use the starvation of Palestinian civilians, caused by an illegal blockade on humanitarian supplies, as a springboard for vegan talking points, and you should be embarrassed that you just did that.
