If it's fine to eat animals who happen to be inferior to us, then it's less bizarre to enslave humans who are inferior to us

In both cases, the superior gets to use the whole of inferior for its self-flourishing

Note : Cannibalism is wrong for being unnatural but that's a different discussion

If we eat food to reconstitute our body, and red meat is the best food for us because it is closest to us in evolution, then wouldn't eating another human be the most ideal food, as it matches what our body needs perfectly?

I think this it's a hard one considering the context we live in.
Even vegetarians still exploit the body of animals, not for their meat, but what they produce to feed themselves, reducing them to a factory of eggs in the case of chickens, milk for cows and so on

Good luck fighting mental illness

Kuru is a rare, incurable, and fatal neurodegenerative disorder that was formerly common among the Fore people of Papua New Guinea. It is a prion disease which leads to tremors and loss of coordination from neurodegeneration. The term kúru means "trembling" and comes from the Fore word kuria or guria ("to shake"). It is also known as "laughing sickness" due to abnormal bursts of laughter which occur.


Risk factor : Cannibalism

"The outbreak likely started when a villager developed sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease and died. When villagers ate the brain, they contracted the disease and then spread it to other villagers who ate their infected brains"

That's from eating a diseased animal, same as if you eat any other diseased animal.

Vegetarians invariably disregard the life value of pests that must be killed on a mass scale to make sure the crops aren't damaged

Why ? Because pests are inferior to vegetables in certain key aspects

We can apply the same reasoning to animals with respect to humans. They are inferior to us & hence can be killed for our self-flourishing - which isn't limited to simple needs but cuisines, a matter of taste.

Nature does nothing with a pattern that is useless & bad. It is guided by & towards the perfect mover. The food chain is good.

Most animals we eat are diseased. You mean uncooked meat is what causes the trouble.

The brain was affected due to the viruses present in human meat (brain specifically) of the diseased.

It may theoretically be possible to remove all the infected parts of human meat through cooking, but this doesn't make it right. Or incest would also become fine as long as you don't ejaculate in your family members. Negative consequences are only indicators of badness, not neccesary conditions of badness.

I would make the following argument instead

1. The animals we tend to eat are those which can't be used for other purposes. This is why horses & dogs are by nature consumed less than pigs or chickens. This holds even after their death.

2. Humans are by nature more useful for other purposes besides satiation of appetite, compared to all the rest of animals, who aren't even rational

Conclusion : From 1 & 2, human beings should be consumed only in dire circumstances where all other animals are unavailable for consumption, in life & death

He who devours his enemies assembles a greater whole from the many parts.

your logic is not flawed, calling another human inferior is.

You cannot compare humans to animals. Anyone who thinks "We're just animals too." is fucking retarded.

I never said we are just animals. We are obviously rational animals with speech. Other animals lack this capacity. But it's irrelevant to the discussion beforehand.
