classic liberal moving, trying to trick us into eating water bugs
heh heh more water bugs for me
I got a bit concerned there.
If we lower the demand by not eating them, we can lower the supply taken from the ocean by self interested businesses trying to maximize profits. This ad increases consumer demand by framing consumption as good. It is far better to minimize our consumption of animals if we care about their lives.
I agree with the sentiment, but my experience of capitalism is that it would not cause reduction in resource exploitation. The reduced cost because of lower demand would just make it profitable to some other industry instead, who would use up the supply.
In some cases, you can even have the government intervene, like subsidizing production to avoid loss of jobs.
It's really a grab all you can world out there :(
Pretty sure that's what Jeffery Dahmer said too
And it was just as true then
Signs like this make me sad
Isn't this that racist, anti-vegan restaurant?
I believe you, facts unchecked
Yeah and whose sin is it, Jimmy? That's right, yours. Stop killing the ocean bugs!
You can bet the same people who made this sign would lose it if someone told them they didn't eat meat.
Bragging about killing animals to eat is really not the flex you think it is Jimmy.
Doesn't really seem like a brag so much as a tongue-in-cheek way of dismissing it. "Yeah, we kill animals. But.... the food is good?"
Though I certainly see what you mean.
These signs came about in response to PETA running a bunch of crazy billboards in their town.
Can I get an amen
