That's kind of you. I assume your coworkers appreciate that.
All of them? I have my doubts about the sentience of some of mine, although at first blush that appears uncorrelated with eating habits.
So you'll eat humans with intellectual disabilities?
If a logical statement is true, it does not imply the inverse is true, but the contrapositive.

I think he’s simply saying that a subset are not able to even understand that there is a choice to be made, and that the logic then would be that you can eat people from that subset.
