    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.

      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.
