    And there go those goalposts again.

    Would you give these same excuses for a communist nation?

    Would you say famine wouldn’t count because they were in a war?

      Yeah, I’d say famine in for example Vietnam during the civil war would’ve been due to the war. Cambodia under pol pot, no, holodomor no, north Korea is in a technical state of war but is not currently engaged in any fighting so no, can’t blame that ongoing famine on war when there hasn’t been fighting in 60 years. Yes, I’m consistent.
