Humans are an animal, under what conditions would you find it acceptable to harvest humans for food? Feel free to give a difference answer but I’m going to preempt three common responses I get: 1. its never ok to kill and eat a human even when you’re starving: then what is so different about cows pigs chickens that makes it ok to do to them, when we have thousands of edible plant species, 2: its ok to eat humans if they are already dead and you’re starving: ok then is that the situation you find yourself in w/ regards to eating other species? 3: its ok to kill and eat humans in a survival situation in the name of self defense: ok again are you in a life or death situation, are there not bread rice beans pasta fruit and veg for you to get nutrients from?
this is a misunderstanding of the responses, the question of “when is cannibalism justified” is used here to draw parallels to when eating flesh of other species is justified, if you wouldnt do it to a human in the same situation why would you do it to a cow pig chicken fish duck goose etc

Harvesting animals for food is appropriate and natural.
No misinformation, remember. You may ask community members questions but are not allowed to make up their answers for them.

“are there not bread rice beans pasta fruit and veg?”
In the life or death survival situations you are making up?
No, there are not.

That isn’t a misunderstanding, you just didn’t get the answer you wanted.
