I’ve been thinking in recent days about the efforts to try to begin breaking down that cannabalism taboo - which is REALLY hard to do!

I’ve been focusing on the Fannie Flagg who wrote “Fried Green Tomatoes.”

It is an amusing story where a wife beater is murdered and then eaten (unknowingly) by the investigator of the crime. Of course the story gives a very emotional and even amusing presentation of why this all so very justified. Very insidious.

From basic Wkipdeia article I learned:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fannie_Flagg

She is openly gay - had at one point a relationship with writer Rita Mae Brown who was introduced to her by Marlo Thomas.

She has had a lot of writing and acting and comedy accomplishments and credits including Candid Camera and game shows.

I had the thought that someone who would be working to main-stream that concept of taboo breaking must have some tell tale relationships.

I was looking for a tie-in with Weinstein, just as a place to start.

This sounded interesting from my search engine.:
“Harper Valley P.T.A.” The Return of Charlie’s Chow Palace ...
How ‘Pippin’ Movie Escaped Harvey Weinstein & TWC Bankruptcy ... The Return of Charlie’s Chow Palace ... Fannie Flagg, ...

But when I pressed the link, I couldn’t find that exact verbiage, so I am left with not knowing quite what to make of it - if anything.

Main thing is that “they” have been working on this for a long time to make it seem all cool chi-chi to be eating human flesh. WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE!?

Great points. Thanks for your hard work. Please keep us posted.

However, am NOT interested in seeing 'the menu.' Sigh. LOL.

I know what you mean. Who are these people. I never thought I had lived a sheltered life. I am now trying to re-evaluate that thought.

The slogan "Its for the children" now makes me wonder. It kind of gives me the creeps even more now.

Planned Parenthood, all these things are truly horrific. I need the humor on here to keep me from having nightmares. The world is far sicker than I ever thought.
