I believe the UN thought it was funny. Because every one in the UN is a frickin’ clown.
UN Deletes Article Titled ‘The Benefits of World Hunger.’ Was It Real or Satire?
FEE The author of the article in question told FEE it was not a parody.
UN Chronicle, the official magazine of the United Nations, recently deleted a 2008 article titled “The Benefits of World Hunger.”
The article, which now leads to an “error page,” was written by George Kent, a now retired University of Hawaii political science professor. In the article, Kent argued that hunger is “fundamental to the working of the world’s economy.”
“Much of the hunger literature talks about how it is important to assure that people are well fed so that they can be more productive,” Kent wrote. “That is nonsense. No one works harder than hungry people. Yes, people who are well nourished have greater capacity for productive physical activity, but well-nourished people are far less willing to do that work.”
UN Chronicle deleted the article after it began to cause a stir on social media. The magazine said Kent’s article should not be taken literally, contending that it was a work of parody.
“This article appeared in the UN Chronicle 14 years ago as an attempt at satire and was never meant to be taken literally. We have been made aware of its failures, even as satire, and have removed it from our site.” more here
If a friend, yeah, a friend, wrote an article titled The Benefits of Introducing VX Nerve Agent into the United Nations Buildings and Offices Worldwide do you think anybody at the U.N. would laugh?

Poking holes in powder blue helmets 1200 yards out for fun and profit. Satire naturally
I had saved the UN’s online threat in a snapshot, because threat is what it is against the world’s populations with proof of it by recent worldwide food shortages. The author and UN meant every word of what was written and mean to carry out their threat.
Ah yes, the Blue-Helmeted Warrior!
Kamala’s seen that a few times…
