I find this take not credible. The key quotation the article centers on. It's weird that they make this claim but then say "but hey it's really not our place" > “As per the Genocide Convention, the crime of gen

I think it's more of a "it depends" It's everything to someone facing the crushing anxiety of scarcity but "meh" to someone who spent most of their adult life being able to buy anything they want.
