Should that title say “cash restaurant” (as in, they only accept cash), or is there really such a thing as a “cache restaurant”? I have no idea what a “cache restaurant” is.

That's the name of the restaurant. "Cache Restaurant."

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Ugh. I would have preferred a typo. That’s terrible.

Thanks, though!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 months ago

It's pronounced cash. It's a dumb name for the restaurant. It's a restaurant in Little Rock, Ark. Overpriced, animal abusing establishment.

There actually is a humane way to make foie gras the birds will naturally eat enough without any human intervention to create a sufficiently large liver (its more expensive but something people are willing to pay for). Then again animals are not people they have fuck all rights and who gave these dickheads the right to say what other people can do. And how is it thw fault of a restaurant thats simply following the laws of supply and demand.

Everyone has the right to complain about whatever bullshit they want.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 2 months ago

Yep, and the police gave them the right to complain about said bullshit. Just as i have the right to complain about their bullshit being actual bullshit.

Black people were once considered animals by slave owners and were given no rights. People who sold slaves were just following the laws of supply and demand too. The market isn't a great arbiter of morality, there's plenty of horrible things people will pay for, including the diseased livers of tortured ducks and geese. Doesn't make the product ethical just because someone will pay for it.

People regardless of race exhibit what's commonly known as self awareness u can test self awareness with a mirror. Ducks and geese do not recognise their own reflection they are therefore not self aware. Same as a tree or a rock or something of equally low intelligence such as urself. Never said it was moral and calling them diseased is just factually wrong, Tortured sure but stop lying it makes everything else u say less impact full.

Now stop appealing to emotion cos its easy to ignore give me some actually facts and maybe I'll give a shit.

Say there was a mentally disabled human who did not recognize themselves in a mirror. Would it be ethical to jam metal pipes down their throats and force feed them until their livers become diseased? Or cut their throats and tear their livers out? If not, why is it OK to do this to ducks and geese?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago

Because as a species there are absolutely zero ducks and geese who exhibit this behaviour.

this is dehumanizing to slaves

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Farmed animals are slaves to humans
