Hi there! There're a lot of you! What are you munchin' on over there? Ah. I thought it was potted meat for sure. All right then... Take a little break from your meal, and let's play Make Believe. Imagine that you're a rich manufacturer... transporting spices and brocade fabric by ship. Long voyage, comfy cabin, vast sea: beautiful. But one fine day, rats under the deck started crapping in your spices and gnawing on your precious fabric. What are you gonna do to get rid of these wretched pests, hm? Simple: You put five rats in one barrel, lock 'em in there together for a couple o'weeks... Until the only thing left in the barrel is one single rat. Who gobbled up his brothers when he got hungry. Now we have what? Right, we have a cannibal. Somebody that, out of all possible meals prefers, what? Right. The meat of his own species! Now you release him in the hold and... True genius is so simple.

Hamsters, wolves and some cats eat their newborns - and for them, this behavior is completely normal. Adorable little lemmings falling to their deaths when there isn't enough food to go around is also normal, right? To say nothing of the fact that meat from one of your own species digests far better than any other food thanks to the similarities in protein and salt composition of the victim and the eater. By the way, cannibalism as a cultural phenomenon has never disappeared from our little planet. We're all aware of its religious and sexual forms. But it's a rather exotic topic for curious people and field experts. Yet we, the genuine humanists, dismiss their absurd narrow-mindedness and fickle moral qualms, because, we are much more focused on the economic dimension. Ya better listen up!

The biggest problem faced by humankind is not global warming but overpopulation and famine. In the last fifty years, the total number of people who were born and died equals the births and deaths in all the rest of human history. In other words, we're getting a bit too many. You get what I mean? The terrible day's coming when all the wimps are going to learn... We — are our own food. In underdeveloped societies, the cannibalism will happen - randomly, on the principle of "who can I catch?" Pretty much the same as how they mate. But for civilized societies, it — should and certainly will be a more industrial process. Just imagine: Farms, spacious and well-lit, where in comfortable stalls, utilizing the latest technology, they breed select two-legged live stock.

Ya know, the animals who permit themselves to become food end up as the winners in the mortal interspecies battle for control over the planet. Did you know that? How many tigers are on Earth? Not very many. Lions? How 'bout bears? Very few. But now riddle me this: how many cows live on Earth? There are billions of them. Understand? Now, listen up. Has it ever occurred to you to wonder who might have already started the process of turning us into livestock? Physiological and sociological conditioning is already happening. Just look at this: Cultivation of stem cells — is one. Use of serum from abortive material in medicine — is the second. Popular movies about the living dead devouring human flesh — three. Laws about euthanasia — four. Shawarma or gyros made from who knows what sold on every corner — five. Do you know for sure what that stuff is?

There's no need to be scared of this bright future. No crisis will menace us ever again. The vegans and the tree huggers'll be downright giddy — nobody'll harm their beloved animals anymore! Although maybe those vegans and greenies will go into the very first batch of universal protein ration. Huh? Give it a think.

i dont think theyre saying we are livestock in the same way that cows of chickens are, im pretty sure theyre more or less using it as an analogy for our jobs, we are more or less food for the system we live in, we're the energy keeping it alive. might have interpreted it wrong but thats what makes theories fun

[kiyahalheybhai]

theses videos are not joke, well tough out and perfectly executed for those who understand. great job freeman

[KirillUs-xk]

If you are foreign viewer then don't missunderstand the idea of what Mr. Freeman is willing to say. He uses canibalism to dilute the main idea in his video. What might come to be his message is brainless consumation and indifference.

[GearlessJoe]

The rat analogy reminds me of the prison system

[Bruh_moments._.]

The available knowledge in these videos are crazy. Just the thought of it is amazing.

[farisbalouchi]

Let me unfold the meaning that I took from this video: The fact that species who permit themselves to be food tend to do better on an evolutionary scale because we have reasons to industrialize their lives for our pleasure really means that the more docile a creature is, the more they will suffer, be subjugated, and used as fuel for the system. And we've allowed this monstrosity to use us as fuel, that's why we're thriving in numbers just as livestock. And species who don't allow themselves to be subjugated, don't thrive in the numbers like chickens, cows, and other livestock that are docile.

Edit: (just to add an example) Lions, Elephants, etc don't thrive in terms of population

[TheGaygaChad]

I think the message is how we are being turned against each other, and how we're no longer relying on cooperation but instead competiton to survive and succeed, where people consume each other to reach the top of the food chain. They live in luxury and safety, and crush and devour the unexperienced and the unlucky. They hold dominance over those underneath them in the food chain, and abuse their power to torment their meal. You could say, "that they enjoy playing with their food". And the worst part? They've convinced their prey that this is how it's been and how it should be, that way, it wouldn't even need to struggle when they sink their filthy teeth into their prey and suck them dry.

[justathoughtbruh]

Imagine normalizing taking advantage of another person for your own personal gain and convincing them that the shitty life they live is the best life they'll live

[sapphicbee]

oh shit this is actually really interesting

[datboigroovin]

The delivery of I thought it was potted meat for sure is incredible

[carna-]

We consume each other in some way. In order to climb the corporate ladder we have to stalk and hunt the one above us, consuming them to survive and keep moving. The reference to two legged live stock is in fact a reference to the fact that we are born, raised, and taught to work until we die, literally being consumed by those that made the system we're born into.

[JMan]

Given the very real possibility of a global food shortage in the coming years it wouldn't surprise me if this video turned out to be more literal than metaphorical

[ICCL-.]

This man is “think outside the box” like who would have ever thought of the “5 rats in a barrel”?

[theaquawave]

Wow, after watching Mr. Freeman in Russian, the English version hits really different. Some easter eggs in his videos are changed to be understood by a foreign audiences

[Bob-knnc]

Damn it, I never thought I’d agree with cannibalism









I volunteer as the first batch!

[enterbalak]

I would love to have these conversations live..

[lilyblu]

This channel is the only one that makes me have to look stuff up. I def don't mind.

[riyaa_paints]

with covid this makes so much more sense

[walflower]

I have never heard of these videos before and I love them.
