Would eating replicated human flesh be considered cannibalism?
>>
>Its a "Malcolm immediately decides to give up and die during a life-threatening situation" episode
>>
>>69260124
I don't think so because cannibalism is about eating members of you own species. Replicated human flesh doesn't qualify, sorry
>>
>>69260124

Presumably, yes. Oddly enough, cannibalism is not illegal in most countries.
>>
>>69260662
Why would it? You'd have to jail every motherfucker who bites his nails.
>>
>>69260596
>cannibalism is about eating members of you own species
So it's ok for them to eat other species in that Star Trek universe? That means, aliens can eat humans and vice versa?
>>
>>69260699
Hahahaha! How is nail biting real? Like close your mouth, move your hand away.
>>
>>69260829
I was just answering OP's question of would it be cannibalism. I don't understand Star Trek, I've never watched the show
>>
>>69260829
I'm not sure what your point is. He is correct that cannibalism is eating a member of your own species.
If a human ate a Talaxian, it wouldn't be cannibalism, but it doesn't mean you 'can' do it in an ethical/legal sense
>>
>>69260829
I think it would be poor etiquette to do so in the presence of other species but I don't see a problem if Barclay wanted to replicate a Klingon steak or sweet and sour Betazed in the privacy of his own quarters every once in a while
>>
>>69260124
pretty sure you cant replicate anything. Some things are forbidden
>>
>>69261124
>>69261096
If they find a new planet and there's a new species there, that's say, in a prehistoric stage, do they have protocols on how to decide if they are sentient and if it's ok to eat them?
>>
>>69261342
I would assume the Prime Directive outlaws that kind of thing no matter how sentient the species is, excluding emergency situations like being stranded on a pre-civilization planet.
>>
>>69261391
So all the galaxy is vegan in Star Trek?
>>
>>69260829
They're humanoid enough that it'd be awkward and probably gross. You wouldn't eat a monkey would you? I know some societies do but for me that's too human-ish so it creeps me out.
>>
>>69261330
>you cant replicate anything

but they replicated lots of things
>>
>>69261391
The prime directive only deals with interference in the development of civilizations. Would poaching a few delicious meals really qualify as interference?
>>
>>69261441
not at all. not even if you consider replicated meat not as meat
>>
>>69261504
sure. but not anything.
Pretty sure with some things the replicater would say "error, object restricted under rule 31-3a" or something

Miles tells Cakehole that his mom raised him eating "real" meat, meaning that on Blarney Potato Island, at least, meat-eating still exists in the 24th century.
>>
>>69261441

the prime directive relates to the federations fleet relations with recently encountered aliens and worlds. In few words, it says that you shouldnt interfere with them, not even letting them know you exist, unless the aliens are already spacefaring, so as not to botch the natives own progression.
>>
>>69261600
oh yeah. this for example. this is what I meant.
They even have real meat for special events, because it is considered a delicatesse

the original show like never adhered to that. It's like every episode they were beaming on a new planet they probably should've just left alone

That might make sense for explosives or other weapons, you can't have just anyone able to blow up the ship, but what's the reason Geordi couldn't enjoy a succulent Andorian-flank casserole every once in a while

Later, it's also referenced as part of a greater policy of non-interference of development, even with strategic allies.

Picard couldn't intervene in the Klingon Civil War until Data proved the Romulans were sending Duras supplies and weapons.
>>
>>69261596
That doesn't mean it CANNOT be replicated. Only that it's NOT ALLOWED.

>>69261096

Partly because it is also an issue of manslaughter, desecration of a corpse, and ignoring death customs of another species.

Yep, I heard a few years ago that NASA had developed the ability to grow beef basically like a tumor to make a regenerating source of steak. I know it sounds gross at first but honestly it's probably cleaner than real meat and it might not make the best steak due to it not having muscle texture and fat marbling etc but I'm sure it'd be find for hamburger meat.

>>69267141
It would also solve most of the world's hunger and reduce the over-exploitation of natural resources and the intensive industrial farming. The structure and composition of the piece of meat could easily be tweaked to closely resemble that of a steak, the problem resides in keeping it fresh while it grows without stuffing it with antibiotics.

I'd heard they experimented with it for possible future extended offworld missions but it's simple capitalism newfriend, the more we make the less each burger would cost and I accept that killing animals is a thing but I don't like it so if there was an alternative to still enjoy tasty tasty burgers without that then I'd entertain the idea.

For many years as I have put my thoughts to paper and written this

find nothing new to comment about. But I have. And it's deeply
troubling to me. Frankly, I believe the time has come for the Continuum

"I've had enough. Why not call it quits?" And you know what?
I've decided that's exactly what I want to do. Let's take a good hard

OP's question goes to the heart of Star Trek and the reason it represents a libertarian future, not a socialist one.

You obviously could instruct a replicator to recreate human flesh-- but in the 24th century humanity has progressed to the point where no one would want to.

In other words there is no monolithic system of control limiting their actions-- instead they can exercise self restraint.

They would get stolen, thieves would target Starfleet vessels, and it probably has to be maintained even when offline which is a drain on the ship's resources. In a way, they do have multiple warp cores because ships in the docking bay like the Delta Flyer have one.

Replicated human flesh is a imperfect replica of something. So by definiton it's not actual human flesh, therefore it's not cannibalism. It's established in many episodes that replicated food is distinguishable from the actual article. For a modern-day equivalent on the legality of this sort of thing, it's the same sort of reason that companies can legally sell synthetic cannabinoids in places that actual cannabis is illegal.

One of the major reasons cannibalism is outlawed/taboo in almost all societies is because of the fact that there's a much higher risk of infection by parasite, particularly ones that cause brain disease, when eating the flesh of your own species.

In the context of Star Fleet, I haven't watched nearly enough Star Trek to know what their policies would be regarding doing it - but assuming that merely putting in the command to replicate human flesh is't enough to cause the replicator to flag you, you'd at least be under pretty intense scrutiny if anyone found out.

Ethically, I can't see any reasons against it. You've not caused anyone to suffer, nor mutilated the corpse of anyone against their will but it's definitely a bit of a red flag.
