On a planet that produces more food than can be eaten by all the humans living on it, a holocaust worth of people starve to death every year. But this isn't counted or considered because it's 'natural.'
Meanwhile if a country manages to escape that system, it is subjected to brutal siege warfare and sabotage. And when that isolation is compounded by floods or famine, the deaths suffered are considered as failures of the system and deliberate brutality.
You grew up in the most propagandized society in the history of the world and have not done any critical examination to dispel its effect.
