Ideally there’d be a socialist system that would be effective at distributing food and water.
Problem is socialism has the worst track record when it comes to feeding people. The worst famines in history happened under socialist systems.
And the whole “water is a human right” slogan is really silly hyberbole. If it were an actually a right then I could move to the middle of a desert and the government would be forced to build the infrastructure needed to provide me water. I don’t think that’s what people mean, but it’s what the slogan means.
Just say it’s bad when people struggle to get basic needs like food and water. Hyperbole is just setting yourself in a losing argument and doesn’t actually sway anyone.
