A great battle!

Was a surprise to us here at Glorb's that this was going on. So, naturally, it made it's way into our "Funny Channel"!

Drew like a dark, fucked up version of Ghetsis haha. Just a glimpse into my dark reality

I said this in a repost but I feel like it deserves it's own post. DO NOT SUPPORT PETA. They might be called "People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals" but that's not what they're about.

The first red flag is the term "animal rights" and their shitty attitude towards the term "animal welfare." Animal rights has the end goal of ending the use of animals for any reason, including companionship and medical reasons. It is not grounded in reality. Animal welfare on the other hand focuses on the wellbeing of animals, it acknowledges that humans and domestic animals rely on each other. Animal welfare promotes the ethical consumption of animal products, which is great because some people (like me) can't go vegan.

The second red flag is their euthanasia rates. The AKC and the Virginia Veterinary Medical Association have both denounced PETA because the euthanasia rate in one of their Virginia shelters was 99%. In 2022 they euthanized 79% of their cat intakes and 95% of the surviving cats were sent to kill-shelters (which actually aren't as bad as one might think, but you'd assume an organization like PETA would be anti-kill shelter). They euthanized 68% of their dog intakes, but only adopted out 4%. I could not find what happened to the other 28%, but if the cats were any indication they sent them to other shelters. They euthanized 78% of their animal intakes that were not cats or dogs. Ex-employees have repeatedly reported that many of the animals PETA euthanizes did not need to be euthanized.

The third red flag is their misinformation campaign. An excellent example is their anti-wool campaign that features a poster of a bloody lamb. If sheep are not shorn, they will heat exhaust and potentially die. Even animal sanctuaries shear their sheep. Shearing is like a hair cut, the skin is not touched. In other campaigns they intentionally omit information, such as practices being approved by vets in order to safeguard health (such as pregnant sows being separated from the other pigs, it's done to prevent fights).

The fourth red flag is their stance on pitbulls, that stems directly from the founder. The founder wrote a newspaper article calling for shelters to destroy all dogs that look like pitbulls. PETA itself has joined up with groups advocating for the ban of pitbulls. While I do admit that pits can be dangerous, and that a shit ton of behavior is genetic, banning all pits is ridiculous. Pits can be great dogs if trained and raised correctly, and banning them will lead to dogs dying, including dogs that aren't even pitbulls. Shelter and animal control workers are notoriously bad at identifying what is and isn't an American pitbull terrier.

god i love trolling peta

You know, the fact that PETA will complain about video games for attention makes me believe that they would have a heckkin heart attack over TF2 lore.

Medic uses animal organs from the black market in most of his experiments. Saxton Hale punches wild animals on a daily basis, and very likely caused the extinction of yetis. Also Poopy Joe, the monkey astronaut, exploded in a failed launch.

But they would probably rant about something stupid like Scout liking fried chicken or using fish and milk as weapons.

Everyone should send junk mail to Autism Speaks (they sure as shit don’t speak for people like me, or any other autistic folks in general, that’s for DAMN sure!), PETA, and the Salvation Army.

PETA​ is probably fuming at the last 2 phase of Sheriff Winchester fight.

you’re telling me PETA tried to “adopt don’t shop” pete davidson for getting a dog from a store but they had no problem kidnapping well loved and cared for dogs from people’s backyards just to euthanize them? and that makes sense to them?

Fuk u peta

something something got laid

I don't like it when "pets" (animal friends) have collars on them, makes it look like we don't respect them and that we "own" them.

You don't own your friend, you care for them.

And to any of you who will say "but Mel I have the paperwork to show I own the pet" well guess what so did the slave owners now did they own those people.

Fuck no.

Happy 4th of July

I don't talk about it much bc ppl find this upsetting but I have actually looked at live animals, thought "I bet that's a tasty meat beast" and then moved on with my day because I live in a society and can buy chicken frozen at the store if I want to eat meat

The idea PETA has that it's not "natural" to eat meat is entirely revisionist: even without the fact that humans have been human long enough that it is natural for our diets to include cooked food, chimpanzees are known omnivores and hunters and they're our closest living relatives.

But like what do you expect from ecofascists whose entire group was founded by a eugenecist.
