      Objects can’t consent at all and they never could, permission from an object to act on it sounds exactly like why the right think the left has gone crazy.

        Biology, legality and philosophy all disagree with your assertion that a dead body is equivalent to random inanimate objects.

        It’s human remains. A deceased individual. A corpse. You do not get to treat it on the same level as a shoe.

        What do you mean never? When they were alive they could consent. Why does that change when they die? Just because someone is incapacitated through death, doesn’t give us the right to rape them. When consent is not given it is presumed you don’t have it.

        And calling people objects is why the right is crazy.

        If a person drowns and has no heartbeat, is it okay for you to have a quickie with them before the paramedics arrive to save him? Clinically they’re dead, so… by your logic, they’re an object, and never had the ability to consent in the first place, so quickly fucking them up the arse should be a-okay, right?

        Or is there like a timer you have for when a person goes from a person to an object, which then retroactively never had personhood anyway? Is it just time, or is it temperature, or as soon as the smell sets in? Some people have been clinically dead for half an hour in cold water before being resuscitated, the cold helping protect from brain damage. And some people smell like dead bodies while alive.

        I’m just curious as to your personal criteria.
