Bosmer cannibalism isn't evil. It's good.
They don't harm plant life in Valenwood, so to eat they have to kill things. If a person has died or they've killed an enemy, their corpse would otherwise just rot or be eaten by animals. Then to feed themselves the Bosmer who didn't eat that corpse would have to kill something else.
Cannibalism = less killing. Less killing = good.

It let's people be racist and pass it off as RP
I'm sure there's more but I can't be bothered to think much at 1:15AM.
Its exactly this, especially that last point. People love letting their inner evil out when they believe they have a justified reason like Elder Scrolls not being real so technically my Racism toward cats and lizards isnt real.
Is the racism toward cats and lizards a real thing? What does this even mean?

You would really love to know why people choose to play as an elf that enjoys enslaving other races?
What could you achieve with this knowledge?
ALL human progress has been achieved by a few humans exploiting masses of other humans to achieve their goals.
Slavery exists today.
If you're unhappy with the dunmer racial outline, don't play them.
You play an interesting game with your quest. Goodbye and poor luck to you.

They didn't. Altmer got taller (perhaps).
Altmer indulge in a sort of eugenics that promotes certain 'breeding' positions and arranged coupling between partners in order to keep a pure and 'perfect' race. There's a few lore books on it throughout the game world, and of course the pocket guide to the imperial empire which suggests that Altmer killed babies born less than perfect -- however, most of the content of said book is rather prejudiced and more than a touch tainted by racism, and definitely less than favourable to non human races.
I have only known my Race [Dunmer] as the only intelligent beings ever to exist, all the rest truly are inferior animals and slaves. there is no other Race.
There is nothing Racist about that at all. to claim we are racist, would be similar to claiming that Daedra are kind and loving beings.
I have been in the OP's shoes for years, but I've just summed it up that these days, being 'dark/evil/mysterious' is cool and fun for the edgy crowd.
As it is said "The monster never sees a monster in the mirror".Bosmer cannibalism isn't evil. It's good.
