Regarding the issue of “cannibalism”...
Recall that a few days after Hurricane Katrina blew through New Orleans, reports started coming out that the survivors were resorting to cannibalism.
Recall also that the response to those stories generally wasn’t “That’s ridiculous”.
The concept that some groups of people can go “cannibal” is one that Mr. Berger’s cohort, and possibly Mr. Berger himself, considers, in the deep, dark, secret recesses of their minds, to be plausible.
Sure, and the groups who are least restrained by religious or cultural moral underpinnings will be the very ones who resort to it first, when they are starving.
Say, groups who consider it entertaining to sucker-punch whites on city streets, then kick them in the head until they are maimed or dead, while filming it on cell phones for later amusement.
I don’t think they are going to stay at home and quietly starve when the skittles are all gone.
