Just found out this Wikipedia article where it says its american: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A%26W_Restaurants
But then in there there is a link to this other article where it says that A&W Canada is actually a separate Canadian company: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A%26W_(Canada)
Kind of confusing to be honest but if I understood correctly, it seems like buying in there is not supporting the americans, am I right?
It’s not individuals, just animals.
Cattle, pigs, and chickens are individuals. Each is a particular someone: a living being with their own body, perspective, experiences, preferences, fears, habits, relationships, and continued interest in what happens to them.
It does not mean they are human, or that their minds work exactly like human minds. It means they are not morally interchangeable objects. It means they have moral worth as individuals.
Regardless of whether you agree that they are individuals, you appear to be saying that you think it is morally acceptable to commit needless cruelty, violence, torture and atrocity against animals. Is that your position?
Not needless. And no, I don’t care what happens to chickens.
