Composting is a specific set of chemical processes that take place in a hot, highly oxygenated environment with the proper mix of nutrients for microbial growth. It is not comparable to ordinary decomposition in soil.

Composting can destroy prions, but it might be different to ensure you’ve destroyed all of them. Read more here: https://www.beefresearch.ca/fact-sheets/can-composting-destroy-bse-prions/

PS: I think it’s not good to joke about killing people, even shitty people.

To be fair, nobody said you had to kill them.

Just cut off parts as needed for food, or bury them in a deep composting pit.

At that point, they might die, but that’s on them for not pulling themselves up by their bootstraps.

I’m not sure you want any of it for food if there’s a risk of prions

Eh, the risk isn’t exactly high. Totally worth it for some fresh long pig

Who’s joking about it?

This is a war, people die in war. If our enemy doesn’t want to die, let them forfeit their “power” and surrender.

Well, I was trying to be charitable. People who seriously want to murder people they’ve never met have serious emotional problems and should seek therapy.

It’s not about wanting to murder people you’ve never met, it’s about wanting to defend yourself and others.

These people are actively waging class war against us, they hold all the power while letting the planet be destroyed.

It is imperative they go ASAP, if they won’t go voluntarily the other option is by force.

We’re running out of a future to debate this.

I think you will find that war isn’t a very useful metaphor for this kind of conflict. … you get that it’s metaphorical, right?

Does it really have to be? A class war (as actual war) has to be better than any other sort of war
