Why not link to the horse's mouth instead of some random site with expiring TLS certs? https://www.oxfam.org/en/press-releases/41-billion-world-ban...

@dang: maybe change the submitted link? Thanks!
you have to email the mod team, hn@ycombinator.com. i think?
Nah, @dang is omniscient.
Yeah, this domain is weird spam.

I can confirm the OP text is indeed identical to the text on that CGTN article (Chinese state-owned media). This is simple plagiarism—among other things.

edit: On that tangent, CGTN Africa itself plagiarized Oxfam's press release—it's obviously the same text, run through an LLM for rephrasing. It's SEO spam all the way down!
