No, really …
As feminists, we’re working to put more women in office and in corner offices. We fight for equal pay, tax-free feminine hygiene products, an end to sexual harassment, funding for women’s sports, and streets safe enough for us to walk alone. […]
Can food really be sexist? Yes, when it’s the product of imprisonment, rape, reproductive control, kidnapping, and abuse. […]
Cows who are imprisoned on dairy farms are forcibly impregnated through artificial insemination again and again on rape racks. Rape racks. All for your milk, cheese, and yogurt.
The sobbing feminist here obviously hasn’t observed animals mating … suffice it to say, it isn’t accompanied by candlelight, a couple glasses of wine, gentle whispers and, ahem, affirmative consent.
PETA, of course, has made moral cretinism into low performance art. From naked people wrapped in plastic to the infamous comparison of chickens to Jews murdered in the Holocaust.
PETA and the rest of the fundamentalist vegans haven’t just anthropomorphized animals, they fetishize them. Their moral certitude allows them to toss aside all normative rules about human interactions and engage in the most offensive, outrageous acts of whack-a-doodlism around.
Even the usually insufferable Neil deGrasse Tyson can cause a case of cognitive vapor lock in the Vegan Cult on Twitter by cheekily stating the obvious:
A cow is a biological machine invented by humans to turn grass into steak.
— Neil deGrasse Tyson (@neiltyson) August 7, 2017
Domestication of what were once wild animals drastically changed them. They, indeed, are biological machines bred to fulfill one or many specific functions. Does that mean we are to mistreat them? Not at all. A good steward of resources recognizes both the practical and ethical obligations of caring for animals. Yet if PETA had its way, cows, dogs, cats, horses would eventually go extinct as domesticated animals were banned.
Some compassion, eh?
Now, please excuse me. I have a couple of steaks to purchase for dinner tonight. — I like mine rare, smothered in sauteed mushrooms. (Tell me there’s no Save the Fungus group?)
Scott says: What’s sad is that anyone actually takes these idiots seriously! A good example of the failure of our education sytem
GWB says: tax-free feminine hygiene products
WTF does THAT have to do with equality?!? My hygiene products aren’t f-n tax-free!
It’s never been about equality, it’s always been about POWER.
they fetishize them
Which used to be a frickin’ crime……..
(Tell me there’s no Save the Fungus group?)
I don’t know if this qualifies, but I’ve seen an awful lot of ads for Democrat fundraisers. (Hope that doesn’t put you off your jager-style steak.)
Scott says: demonrat fundraisers= Save the Fungus… that’s Awesome GWB!!! I’ll steal that if you don’t mind…
Skillyboo says: Ultimate goal is to force us all to be vegans.
GWB says: And make sure to pronounce it vay-gens, not vee-guns. It ticks them off, and it reminds you that they really are from another planet.
ML says: Seems PETAs aim – not unintended consequence but aim – is to make them go extinct. They rather kill the pets they get their hands on, after all. From that and other evidence they seem to think pets and domestic animals are living a life worse than death, not just because they are “imprisoned” by us but also because they have been altered from their wild forebears to creatures which now need us so they should be all mercy killed to save them.
