Foie gras is a class issue.

06.08.2009 13:13

Why always the focus on Foie gras? plenty of wrong meat on the market. Why target someone's own business instead of where the real problem is, big business. Every time I read this I think of middles class vegans running around, get a grip. You seen how they make dog food, black pudding???

its not a class issue its an abuse of other living beings issue

The focus on Foie Gras is perhaps because it is something that is already illegal to be farmed in the UK (and a large percent of the public accept that it is vile and cruel), All meat is "Wrong meat" but surely to get any one of these meats off of a menu is a start. Stopping a Restaurant selling Foie Gras is far more achievable in the short term, than say getting a restaurant to be fully vegan and it also gets the ball rolling for other products of abuse to be taken from a menu.
"Why target someone's own business instead of where the real problem is, big business."
I disagree all business is the REAL problem and should be challenged especially any that directly profits from human and non-human animal abuse, regardless of the size of the business.
As for these middle class vegans you speak of, I have yet to meet a middle class vegan who does not happily work hand in hand with vegans of working class backgrounds (or any other background for that matter) in a non-hierarchical way fighting for an end to all abuse. These are also the people who are campaigning against all animal abuse not just posh noncey restaurants.

Isn't it because small companies are easy targets? How was your stint in prison? Quiet while you were inside ;)

Not necessarily an easy target

maybe a more achievable target, but not always easier because they still get the same personal police bodyguards. Haha prison was alright just boring really read alot and ate alot of shitty food. missed me while i was away? :p

All Animal Abuse is A Class & Anarcho Issue

What about the agrochemicals made by Bayer, Clariant, Avecia, Syngenta etc which were passed as safe at HLS, then when shipped out to be used on mass tomato farms in 3rd world countries cause cancer. It's not exactly the rich picking the tomatoes for our supermarkets is it?!

The basic anarcho theory, whether you follow Green, Anarcho-Communism, Queer or whatever sect you choose, is of equality and preventing suffering; including that or people, aniamls and the planet / environmental destruction.
