Nowadays, meat is one of the most common portions of the human meal. According to census statistics from 2009 and 2010, the United States is among the leading meat-producing and consuming countries in the world, especially beef and chicken.1 In contrast, there is no census of human meat because no one consumes it. Yet, human flesh and horse flesh are the same thing because it is the flesh of a body that has the capacity to suffer as proposed by Singer. Therefore, in the story of Mad Max, the moral distinction that can be drawn is unjustified for numerous reasons. Peter Singer would agree with me on this topic, as he suggests in his text “The Case for Animal Liberation” that some of the modern tactics used to kill animals cause an enormous amount of pain to non-human animals. These animals are imprisoned and tortured while being prepared as meals for humans. Others argue that there is nothing wrong with eating meat, especially because they don't understand the pain the animal feels. However, as previously stated, these animals suffer cruelty and suffering. Would a human being be ready to suffer the same suffering and pain? Would a human being be ready to see a club come to stick his throat? Would a human being be ready to die knowing that he will be eaten for pleasure? I can almost certainly guarantee that the answers to these questions will always be NO. In the story of Mad Max we see that Pig Killer had died willingly because he was tired of his life and wanted to have meaning. We can draw from the story that eating human animals is not considered moral because Max did not eat human meat but chose to eat horse meat. If humans are not ready to give... middle of the paper... considerations on. To these arguments from Singer, Cohen had nothing to say other than simply stating that such statements are offensive. I firmly believe in the arguments made by Singer and support his thought that animals should receive equal consideration because some rights that matter to us also matter to them. In the story of Mad Max we can conclude that Mad Max's choice not to eat human meat and instead choose Dink Dog Food was unjustified because in my eyes eating horse meat is equivalent to eating human meat because animals are deprived of the rights they deserve .
