Hear me out. There’s nothing innate to an object that makes it “food”. It’s an attribute we give to certain things that meet certain qualities, i.e. being digestible, nutritious, perhaps tasty or satisfying in some way, etc. We could really ingest just about anything, but we call the stuff that’s edible “food”. Does that make it a social construct?

    I have never once at any point inserted a “should” into this conversation, besides maybe like “you shouldn’t be a dick”.

    is that what’s so scary to you? that thinking leads to shoulding? take your fear out elsewhere please
