You were probably hypnotized and indoctrinated as a secret cannibal lover who will one day eat half your family with no warning and undermine the American way of life.

Why else would your professor have ever mentioned the subject?

I had a class that "discussed" the cannibalism on Easter Island as a result of resource stress- it never occurred to me my professor was "suggesting" cannibalism.

Apparently, this is an offshoot of the attitude that we can't talk to our enemies for fear of giving them tacit approval.

Discussion is one thing - a thousand page book is entirely different - then of course look at who he wrote it with - that same crazy "scientist" that made some serious errors in forecasting. Good thing no one listened to their crazy ideas then - hope we get as lucky this time around.
