You might remember recently when Biden economic adviser Brian Deese said this administration wants to create and maintain a “liberal world order”:
CNN: "What do you say to those families that say, 'listen, we can't afford to pay $4.85 a gallon for months, if not years?’"

Clearly the United Nations would agree with that, and recently the UN was spotted taking it a step further with a story on their website:
Wow … it's a strategy.

When you search for the article it still comes up on Google from the UN’s website, but the link is now broken:
However, an archived version still exists:
The UN definitely wouldn't want an archived version of their weird "benefits of world hunger" article out there after they pulled it!https://t.co/QoWQtmQxPs

Well, there it is. Here’s how it starts:
We sometimes talk about hunger in the world as if it were a scourge that all of us want to see abolished, viewing it as comparable with the plague or aids. But that naïve view prevents us from coming to grips with what causes and sustains hunger. Hunger has great positive value to many people. Indeed, it is fundamental to the working of the world’s economy. Hungry people are the most productive people, especially where there is a need for manual labour.
We in developed countries sometimes see poor people by the roadside holding up signs saying “Will Work for Food”. Actually, most people work for food. It is mainly because people need food to survive that they work so hard either in producing food for themselves in subsistence-level production, or by selling their services to others in exchange for money. How many of us would sell our services if it were not for the threat of hunger?
More importantly, how many of us would sell our services so cheaply if it were not for the threat of hunger? When we sell our services cheaply, we enrich others, those who own the factories, the machines and the lands, and ultimately own the people who work for them. For those who depend on the availability of cheap labour, hunger is the foundation of their wealth.
That’s… something else.
This is the next step of "you wont own anything and you will be happy", now its "you wont eat anything and you will have jobs"

In the face of looming food/energy shortages caused by disastrous climate policies, the UN says “Hungry people are the most productive people, especially where there is a need for manual labour.”
Yeah. Starvation does that.
Don’t worry. It’s good for you.https://t.co/cI7gFchtD8

As a bonus for the lefties at the UN, they will then blame “climate change” for hunger. And ’round and ’round we go.
What’s the UN’s explanation? It’s an old article and was “an attempt at satire,” and has now been pulled:
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.

The archived version does not note anywhere that the piece was intended to be satire.
