If it came down to it...cannibalism. Would you?

[Forum]

too many people said yes here.

why?

honestly what rational reason do you have against it, as long as the person was already dead? youre going to let yourself die just because you think that that dead body is too sacred?

Yeah, guess I'm a weird tnuc for not wanting to eat people. Fucking shameful.

If i was the one that died i would rather people used me for nourishment than starve themselves

What's the magnitude of this "If it came down to it"?

Like everyone on earth dying? What?

Interpret however you wish.


General scenario is where you are in a position where you are close to death due to starvation and no there are no other food sources available.

[herbs]

if i'm honest, i'd be the one everyone would be queuing up to chow down on.

I'd happily die knowing I'm helping the others out (plus there's no way I could out-run anyone)

[wub]

It's like doing a runner from a restaurant without paying the bill. It's not about being the fastest, it's about ensuring you're not the slowest.

[zerbaman]

It's also strikingly similar to running from predators, Wub

anyone who would eat another creature but not a human has some deep seated special self loathing that they need to work through with a therapist.

it's happened before, see the plane crash in chile in the 70s where they had to start eating the dead in order to survive

and yeah, like southstar said, my body is useless to me, if it can help people survive after my death then i'd hope that people would use it for all its worth

odd set of circumstances when you are asking your friend to pass your dead friend's leg down the way

So do you actively engage in cannibalism? You actually sound like you do

yeah I embrace our liberal culture. I try not to alienate or marginalise any of the food groups.

who'd have thought there'd be a humanist edge to your misanthropy

NOT ME.

How did you guys react to the Bath Salt cannibals?

Was it fair game or what?

can’t stop laughing

OP: I’m too scared of getting diseases from people to eat a human. That would be my reason No.

turned out the guy wasnt even on any drugs (i think besides marijuana)

[zerbaman]

That's a little besides the point. How DID you guys react to it?

And nonetheless, whether or not you would agree it evidently "came down to it" when people's faces started being munched off.

[Phigure]

i hardly think it's relevant to the situation at hand. we're talking about eating an already dead person in a situation where you wouldn't otherwise survive. this guy attacked a perfectly healthy guy and started eating him because he's mentally ill

how did i react? i thought the guy was a fucking nutter and i felt awful for the victim
