I don't know if any of you have seen the recent ad campaign by the American fried chicken chain: Chick-fil-A. Here is an example video:
Now at first glance, this is a clever commercial with anthropomorthized animals. However, if you think about what you're seeing here, I think it's quite disturbing. Cows are asking us to eat chicken in order to save their own lives. Are we supposed to feel better exclusively killing and eating chickens for our meat? How are the cows better than the chickens and why do they deserve to be saved? It probably doesn't matter anyway. Most people in the US will probably still eat beef and chicken, sometimes on the same plate (and don't forget pork.... mmmmm, bacon).
Blog for a Cure
All the ad revenue generated from this blog and several others will go to the Chordoma Foundation which is a non-profit organization that goes towards research and treatment of this rare bone cancer. Funding is needed because governments tend to pass over such rare diseases when distributing funding. If you would like to learn more, please visit www.chordomafoundation.org
Due to the support for this blog, we have now raised $62ish, all of which will go towards the Chordoma Foundation. Thank you.
