    that’s like blaming potatoes for deaths caused by green potatoes.

    corn doesn’t cause anemia or malnutrition, it’s partly because it’s not processed properly through nixtamalization and partly because of poverty caused by colonialism

      Potatoes aren’t green by default when ripe.

      this is like blaming guns for killing people, it’s just that they didn’t have the right bullets loaded

        But it’s the bullets fault the potatoes are green!! Is the fascist colonists immigrants hasn’t shot the potatoes, they’d be brown!
