@chartier@toot.cafe BWAHAHAHAHA...Oh, dear sweet naive child. In some economic systems just COMPLAINING that they were being fed spoiled food measurably could kill them faster than the tainted goods themselves. You think it's capitalism forcing one quarter of north korea to starve to death? Capitalism that created the Holodomor? Become a better student of history. Regulations in many nations were ENTIRELY because it's ruling class enjoyed them was standard faire across the world until the late 1800's.

@Beggarmidas@mastodon.social @chartier@toot.cafe Regulations became necessary due to so-called absentee landlords who were hard to lynch (for obvious reasons) if they overstepped social rules. And as is well-known, absentee landlords exist due to capitalism promoting them as the #1 way to add wealth. Unionbusting to keep labour down is also non-nonviolent. Also: both your examples are of state capitalistic systems working under threat of war. Food poverty isn't limited presently to North Korea, as you well know.
