Another example that demonstrates how Fr*nce is secretly a fraud

Lowkey actually surprised me when I found this out (it’s real btw). Link to the source:

https://www.worldlifeexpectancy.com/cause-of-death/malnutrition/by-country/

It says that it’s taking this statistic from the WHO, and it does seem to line up with official numbers.

https://data.who.int/countries/408

Is this accurate? I’m not really looking to get into this debate. I mainly just posted this for shits and giggles, but also to show my surprise at the fact that Fr*nce apparently has a higher malnutrition rate than North Korea.

But yeah, another L for the baguette people

but its in the middle tho compared to other countries i thought 1 per 100k isnt THAT bad compared to a pakistan 3

nvm i see

Figure that out yourself

what am i looking at rn i dont get any of this

The statistic here is the death rate from malnutrition out of 100,000 people (in a year).

Let’s say that a country has 1 million people, and 10 people there die from malnutrition in a year. That means 1 person died of malnutrition out of 100,000 people that year.

Fr*nce has a higher malnutrition death rate per 100,000 people than North Korea, therefore, more people in Fr*nce died of malnutrition that year than North Korea, according to this statistic.

that doesnt logically make sense I thought everybody in north korea was on the brink of dying from malnutrition

Kind of a slight exaggeration imo. If the majority of the population in a country were legitimately on the brink of starvation, it would legitimately not function. They did have a famine in the 1990s, but they’ve mostly recovered from that by now.

If you are genuinely curious, there’s another source I found about a closer look on North Korea’s current food situation.

“The North Korean famine of the mid-1990s is well-known and well-researched in terms of causation, processes, outcomes and consequences. Much less is known, however, about the changing health and nutritional status of the population since the famine and, indeed, the dominant perspective is that nothing much has changed in the DPRK. Yet, despite a precarious economy, the end of systematic government provision of food to the population, and a decline in assistance from international organizations after 2001, the data shows that by the mid-2010s, national levels of severe wasting, an indication of famine-like conditions in the population, were lower than in other low income countries globally and on a par with those prevailing in other developing countries in East Asia and the Pacific.”

Im sure you can understand why im not going to that link, but i do find this to be pretty interesting

I mean it was pretty safe for me, but if you don’t want to click the link, I respect your decision.

There are defectors that will talk about North Korea as if everyone there was on the brink of starvation, but most of them are in their late twenties/early thirties, meaning that they were living during the time period where the Arduous March (aka the aforementioned famine) was going on. It was during the time where the USSR collapsed and couldn’t provide fertilizer for North Korea in the form of aid (which it heavily relied on).

Maybe their personal accounts were accurate for the time they were living in, but North Korea nowadays? Probably not as much.

I’m gonna have to hop off this site right about now, but if you really do find this stuff to be interesting, then here is a lot more stuff on North Korea that I personally found very intriguing myself (from a link that you can click this time).

The introduction is a little… eh, so I highly suggest that you skip it using the various timestamps to whichever part interests you the most. Don’t let the length of this video scare you, cause it is entertaining, and each section barely even lasts 10 minutes. And it’s well-sourced, has a lot of good information on not just North Korea, but Korean history as a whole, with tumors of the video being relatively unbiased.

*the rest of the video

Autocorrect

but hes lwk spitting some good information

Idk man
