People would literally rather die than be dehumanized. We established that loud and clear in the 80's, tried to do better in the 90's, but it took some doing for us to get it. Sounds like we are due for a booster shot.
Beggars can be choosers. They do it all the time. If you agree that there are things worse than death, how can you also think that people should do anything and everything to avoid death, just because you think they should?
Even the part of a cow that are acceptable to eat change from country to country. For example a few years ago we were eating asado here in a restaurant in Argentina. Some Mexican tourist asked what we were eating. We were eating chinchulín [1]. We were not sure if we should explain the details and how to explain them, but in the middle of the explanation, they just say "OK. It's tripas!" and they eat them gladly.

PS: If you are going to eat chinchulín, always ask for a well cooked one, almost burned. It is horrible, when undercooked.
