Not sure what to answer to, this or the original comment you posted.

My mom was born in 1943 a little bit before the hunger winter hit, so I'm well aware of the effects of the hunger winter on the Dutch population.

As for making myself look dumb, you seem to want to make this a personal issue, I merely think it is strange to put soylent green in the context of the hunger winter of '44 when we have far more recent examples that are much higher impact.

And those have been studied extensively as well, and their aftermath is happening right now.



The remark "You must be unaware of..." was personally directed at me so, yes, I took it personally.


Ah I see, dumb assumption on my side. Apologies.
