I had no idea until today that it was heroic to prevent food from reaching impoverished humans.
Good call, though. Instead of educating people on modern history every single day for eight months, teaching them about obscure subjects like the Fascist violence against Africans, the long‐term effects of the Axis’s famines, a microstate that willingly voted to join the German Reich, the links between medieval pogroms and support for the NSDAP, the Slovakian contribution to the reinvasion of Poland, and the Ustaša’s extermination of Serbs, I could have stood in front of a food aid truck and made fun of some homeless people.
