Some people, when given a choice between cannibalism and dying of starvation will choose the former. The ones that do may choose to regret it, but they are alive to have the capacity to regret.
At the point that you are struggling to survive, any society that does not immediately render aid is no society at all (not to you), and is either an enemy, taking resources you need, or prey.
I find it unfathomable that people imagine that poor people and untermenschen should just resign themselves to dying off. It explains why the working class might resort to terror attacks to assert their right to exist.
Oh, wow, that's so comforting to know: the monster feel a tinge of guilt. So, are you ready to die for someone else's character development (best case)?
The least one can do is understand the class war. You don't punch down or to the side. You don't do reverse-Robin-hood.
Aside from that, if all that's left of this species is monsters, there's no point to it.
Sound like you've never gone hungry, or even suffered from precarity.
We are all monsters once we are desperate enough. Even you.
But then we, as a species, careen towards multiple great filters we are ill-prepared to navigate. We may be too savage to survive after all.
