It's difficult for Anglo-Europeans not to imagine people in other countries starving because it's so widespread and normalised in the imperial core. With such abundance yet so much hunger in the west, it's no wonder that westerners struggle to comprehend how other states could feed their population with just enough to go around (i.e. no great abundance). (Not that libs tend to care what the actual food stats are in AES, just like they don't care what the yanks said about calorific intake in the USSR.)
