I don't know why you don't like evolutionary biology, Mom says

Applying perfectly sane and logical reasoning to the problem of poverty in Africa: Clearly, the reason there is widespread starvation and illness in Africa is because the people do bad on tests. It cannot possibly be that starving tends to make people do badly on tests. Especially not since there's actual data showing that starving people do, in fact, do badly on tests, what with the starvation and the shutting down of the brain. And certainly chronic illness doesn't harm test scores. And the infant mortality? Also the cause and not effect of starving. Stupid dead babies, don't they know it's all their fault for making Africa impoverished? If they had stopped being lazy quitters and dying they wouldn't have been malnourished.

In conclusion, nuke the London School of Economics. They'll be okay because only stupid people with low IQs die from megatons of explosive force followed by lethal amounts of radiation. And if they die, well, it's all their fault for being stupid.

See, he's arguing it's genetic. The malnourishment of babies is because their parents are genetically inferior and the babies are genetically inferior.

Isn't this actionable under anti-inciting hate crimes law?

I think only actionable thing that should be done is a hate crime. Unfortunately it seems England doesn't know how to lynch people.

It's a lost artform.
