Behavioral scientist Magnus Söderlund, appearing on Swedish state TV, says to combat climate and deal with the looming food scarcity we need to overcome the “conservative taboo” against eating human flesh. Even if you’re reluctant to taste your neighbor, he says you could become accustomed to cannibalism little by little. Söderlund claims that only selfishness makes us reluctant to eat one another, but as an expert in behaviors he believes people can be “tricked” into “making the right decisions.” Is this “Get woke, eat folk” sensibility just the latest example of climate change scare tactics aimed at forcing government action?
