I DO get this post and I think many interesting things HAVE BEEN done with this concept, and it can be explored,
but there is something so fundamentally western about this post because cannibalism was and is one of the top 3 excuses for colonialism!! The very real and varied forms of exocannibalism and endocannibalism practices by the natives of the Americas was, and still is, the easiest route to dehumanize them and justify the atrocities committed against them!
Cannibalism is a powerful western taboo and I get the appeal of using it as a metaphor to talk about other taboos, and I do think such an approach could be done successfully and with nuance, and maybe I'm being unfair to a one-sentence post -- but oh the way this comes across in the context of the actual, real life history! The inescapability of discussing colonialism always on the moral playing field of the colonizers! What does signalizing the monstrosity of colonialism through cannibalism say about the colonized who ate, indeed, the flesh of other men?
#besides - bartolomeu de las casas in the 1600 did this with much more elegance by equating american cannibalism with catholic communion. tbh#honestly i'm also annoyed bc IMCO not everything in this literary world needs to be conceived as a metaphor#& I personally have a strong dislike for how 'X as a metaphor for Y' is currently such a strong aesthetic value in SFF#i cannot WAIT for that to fall out of fashion because I believe that only by writing sincerely about one thing can we really#be sincerely also talking about something else#antropofagia#cannibalism#inane post#metaphor#eu jaguar

PIER KIDS (2019) dir. Elegance Bratton The lives of Black, homeless queer and trans youth who call the Christopher Street Pier in NYC their home. Filmed over five years, taking place mainly in 2011, 2012, and three years later in 2016. The youth are interviewed over these years to show how time and experience changes, shinning a light on how queer people of color utilize spaces to create a chosen family, as well as highlighting the police presence in a community that relies on sex work for their main form of income. (link in title)
