    People who advocate against animal cruelty are a special kind of stupid. Totally destructive of any (fundamentally not so bad) businesses that give time the time of day, and utterly ineffective at actually meaningfully changing the mass cruelty of the meat industry. Absolutely catastrophic virtue signaling. PETA “shelters” have a higher kill (euthanasia) rate than any other organization.

      What the fuck are you try to say? Because one bad organization does bad things, no one can say we should move away from torturing animals for extra profit?

      This is an interesting collection of words. It’s not clear what you’re trying to say, but I’m left with the sense that I probably disagree.

      Maybe collect your thoughts, work out what you want to say and try again?

      There should be no “meat industry” at all you despicable fucking ghoul

      “fundamentally not so bad” ? you morally bankrupt imbecile, go watch Dominion

      Stop murdering and eating sentient beings

      PETA “shelters” have a higher kill (euthanasia) rate than any other organization.

      Close to a million cows are murdered daily (not to mention pigs, ducks, etc.) - almost universally after a life of torture or soon after birth - but yeah, sure, shelters kill more, makes total sense

      Since you obviously feel guilty (consciously or not) but do not seem to have the basic morality to stop profiting from the mass torture and killing of sentient beings for your personal pleasure, at least have the decency to keep quiet about it instead of trying to jump through logical hoops justifying yourself

        It’s more the fact that this movement spends all its energy shutting down Fois Gras and Angora and has had ZERO impact on the wholesale slaughter of sentient beings across the meat industry except to shift a growing portion from farms in the US and Europe where there are some meager standards to farms in asia that have zero scruples and will torture without reserve to make an extra juan.

        Fucking useless caricature of activism. All your outrage would be more effectively spent on literally anything else.
