Is it possible to eat those humans? If it’s actually nutritious I don’t see a problem, and it’s less wasteful, as you said. Soylent Green operated on this principle.

I don’t actually. Will you explain it to me?
Do you have any other pedantic fact corrections about ancient Rome or the Middle Ages you can share?
You’re right, I’m the cunt and not you, clearly.
So a small group of workers should suffer because the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few?
Those rail workers weren’t striking for higher pay, they wanted the basic human dignity of having paid time off and paid sick days.
There’s no need to be pedantic for no reason. Whilst it’s true silphium was used for many things (including cooking), we don’t know what percentage of it was used for which aspects, but we do know for certainty that one use was an abortifacient, at huge scale, and that the plant is now extinct.
Ergo, we can surmise that it’s widespread use as an abortifacient most likely contributed to its eventually extinction, along with its other use cases. Although I never said in my message that abortion was the sole use, I merely said that they used it for so many abortions it eventually ended up extinct.
Honestly mate, this comment seemed like a superfluous exercise in pedantic narcissism and reminds me why I need to stay far away from Lemmy.
I actually did know that, but it doesn’t invalidate my point whatsoever.
If Democrats were truly supportive of working class people they wouldn’t be voting to remove their collective bargaining rights via an act of Congress. Think about that for a second – they would rather vote to send those workers to jail than allow them to exercise a core right of workers everywhere.
Doesn’t matter that Biden stepped in months later, Biden is the president and I’m talking about the general party in Congress, e.g. Democrats en masse.
Democrats and Republicans came together in a super rare and bipartisan endeavour to shut down the rights of hard working railroad workers trying to strike for sick days and time off in December 2022. The final senate vote was 85 vs 15.
That should be a pretty clear indication that at least when it comes to helping working class people where it counts (money and basic human rights), both parties are identical.
Murdering babies is pretty great though, did you know that humanity has been doing it since ancient Mesopotamia? The ancient Romans used so much silphium as an abortifacient that the plant went extinct.
No water, only crab juice.
I totally agree, we should treat animals the same as we treat humans. I really don’t understand why so many people value animal lives lesser to those of humans.
