Isn't it awfully colonialist to view cannibalism is a lesser way to live? /sarc

Didn’t Benjamin Franklin also do something like that?

I was thinking more of the undertaker sketch.

So their “Meat the Artist” thing was a LIE!

--- From AP: "The Human Meat Project purports to seek donations of human bodies that would then be turned into meat for human consumption. But the site's ;Terms and Conditions of Use' spells out that it's 'purely a conceptual art project and will not be acted out in real life'.”
So in other words, Ass-ociated Press fact-checked pure BS. And got it wrong, as Ass-ociated Press so often does.
But from the site itself: "Welcome to the Human Meat Project, we are the human meat donation program. By donating bodies for human consumption, we are taking action to solve overpopulation, which leads to climate change and the greenhouse effect caused by the mass farming of livestock animals in order to feed the world."
Source: https://humanmeatproject.com/about-us/
So AP's fact check is itself BS. A cursory further look into the registrar and name server info indicates that the operator of this is outside the US, likely operated in the Netherlands and hosted in Cyprus. So the whole thing seems quite a scam on a number of levels.

So they say they are not promoting cannibalism, huh?! Yeah, right and I’m sure they’ve got some real estate on Mars they’d like to sell us.

You got beat by almost an hour. As a consolation prize, let me recommend “Cannibalism in the Cars” by Mark Twain.
To: HartleyMBaldwin
Or “The Yarn of the Nancy Bell” by W. S. Gilbert. I memorized that for 8th grade English class, and it’s still in my head.
