    Oh my god, 100% Read a post about it on r/196 a while ago, went something like “It’s important to have discussions about things like cannibalism because arguments like «it’s just gross/bad/unnatural» have been used to condemn homosexuality and the like”

        If a person said “I’ll kill myself and you can eat me afterwards” and they were eaten, what would be wrong about eating them? We eat animals every day. Humans are animals. What’s ethically wrong with eating them?

        Of course, if it turned into a capitalistic venture, that would be a completely different discussion: how would you know the human meat were sourced by voluntary deaths? Once there’s money involved, things get very tricky.
