Cloning a meat steak and cloning functional human being are two wildly different things, and only one of those is really possible with anything near modern tech. Hell cloning brain meat and cloning an actually working brain are two very different things.
This is like if the atf treated slingshots as machine guns.
If you’re one step removed from something society actively discourages, and just by advent of technology, then people who have more power and less impulse control will indulge in the real thing. From my pov, indulging in eating human flesh via lab grown meat is the same as indulging in being a pedo via ai gen child porn. I could be wrong, but I think it would be interesting to brain scan people who want to eat human flesh to understand how and why they’re overcoming millions of years of evolutionary impulses
Yeah everyone who disagrees with you has something wrong with their head. That's totally not lazy, and definitely not ableist in the slightest.
Remember what I said about incels? Its like this weird obsession with arm-chair pseudo-biology. What next, your going to tell me who I fuck and why determines my place in some nebulous social hierarchy? "Overcoming millions of year of biology", no you've just got your head so far up your ass you forgot what bullshit smelt like.
Comparing growing your own meat to a pedophile cranking one out to ai generated photos is a false equivalence and hard. If nothing else, the adult being sampled can consent. The children who's pictures where used as training data can't.
If someone wants to commit to cannibalism they'll do it anyway. This is a shit take, and a slippery slope at that. Even if that where true, the answer is to do away with capitalism and social hierarchy, not tech that could potentially help to solve hunger.
I'm sorry being a vegan won't make you a better person than the rest of us once this rolls around. I know that must hurt your ego.
I don’t care about the disagreement, it’s about the fact that some people want to eat human flesh.
It doesn’t matter what the source of the human flesh is in this case because I think the point is more what is motivating these people to that action.
Regarding vegans, technically they are “better” people as a study showed they had higher levels of empathy. But of course, wouldn’t hurt to have more data either way. Regardless, that doesn’t necessarily imply that omnis or carnis are “bad” people.
Also, I am not sure you know what the term false equivalency means. How am I making a false equivalency?
Well if that where true, you wouldn't have replied would you? Literally the disagreement is about said human flesh. To some extent you care.
Personally? I want an ethical meat alternative. I have sensory issues with food. I would love to switch to a mostly or entirely vegan diet, but the textures of a lot of plant-based foods fucking throw me. I hate it. I wish I wasn't like that, but I am.
Using your own sample to grow your own meat is inherently the most ethical way to eat meat. I'm not doing psychological damage to myself by doing so, you've no reason to think I would be.
