Cannibals All is a phrase that originated in the United States in the early 19th century and was used to describe the idea that everyone is ultimately out for themselves and will do whatever is necessary to achieve their own goals, even if it means sacrificing the well-being or interests of others. This phrase is often used to refer to a cynical or selfish worldview, and it suggests that people are essentially predatory and will stop at nothing to get what they want.
The concept of cannibals all is rooted in the idea of individualism, which emphasizes the importance of the individual over the group and holds that each person is responsible for their own success or failure. This perspective is often associated with capitalism and is seen as a driving force behind economic competition and the pursuit of personal gain.
However, the concept of cannibals all also has its critics, who argue that it promotes a harmful and self-centered worldview that ignores the importance of community and cooperation. These critics argue that focusing solely on one's own interests can lead to a society that is divided and selfish, and that it is only through a sense of shared responsibility and concern for the well-being of others that we can build a healthy and thriving society.
Ultimately, the concept of cannibals all serves as a reminder of the complex and often conflicting values that shape our worldview and our relationships with others. While it is important to pursue our own interests and goals, it is also crucial to consider the impact our actions have on others and to strive for a sense of balance between self-interest and the common good.

The experiment which they will make, we fear, is absurd in theory, and the symptoms of approaching anarchy and agrarianism among them, leave no doubt that its practical operation will be no better than its theory.

For Justine and Maren, this goal is more physical, to quench their growing hunger. Fitzhugh's passion sounds like every sentence should be written in all caps.
