this is a misunderstanding of the responses, the question of "when is cannibalism justified" is used here to draw parallels to when eating flesh of other species is justified, if you wouldnt do it to a human in the same situation why would you do it to a cow pig chicken fish duck goose etc
A cannibal could use that same argument, yes people die from all sorts of reasons but deliberately killing someone who doesn't need to die is murder. If you can survive eating cheap readily available plant foods bread rice pasta lentils veg fruit potatoes etc then the CHOICE to eat an animal is a CHOICE to fund their continued slaughter and confinement, its like paying an assassin, you share responsibility with the assassin
Humans are an animal, under what conditions would you find it acceptable to harvest humans for food? Feel free to give a difference answer but I'm going to preempt three common responses I get: 1. its never ok to kill and eat a human even when you're starving: then what is so different about cows pigs chickens that makes it ok to do to them, when we have thousands of edible plant species, 2: its ok to eat humans if they are already dead and you're starving: ok then is that the situation you find yourself in w/ regards to eating other species? 3: its ok to kill and eat humans in a survival situation in the name of self defense: ok again are you in a life or death situation, are there not bread rice beans pasta fruit and veg for you to get nutrients from?
I dont expect the impossible from people or to live in caves, but eating someones flesh is a choice, vegan food is cheaper and healthier and all the reasons people give to eat flesh is self serving bullshit "its my tradition/culture" "I like the taste" "Its MY habits" ok what about the victims life what about their choices, what excuse would you accept if it were you in the killbox
Its a gore image its not unrelated. Posting this and saying its tasty is celebrating the death of the non-human animal whos flesh was stolen.
Your honor I killed them in cold blood but you're being very rude right now calling me a murderer. Cows pigs chickens or whoevers flesh is in this image deserve to live. We can be just as healthy eating plants no one needs to die
Thats the thing though if you are eating someones flesh you are fundamentally not being respectful, respect is earned and you stubbornly defending the decision to eat an innocent creatures flesh makes me see you as a violent person who doesn't deserve my respect
