Apparently this is a map showing cannibalism from ancient China through to today. Obviously that context is intentionally left out of the post unless you read Chinese which on a primarily Anglo/English speaking site is just malicious at best and down right racist at worst.

Interestingly there is no mention of the fact that at a time when China didn’t do this, the Belgians were cutting the limbs of workers for failing to hit their rubber quotas.

I hate reddit.

    I come from an industrial city that has a long history of (extreme) poverty. Due to this poverty it’s a bit of an urban legend that people used to kill cats in the streets and eat them. Yay for capitalism.

    But this is just fucked up.
