Always reblog this. A lot of the animals they kill (and they kill over 95% of the animals they take in at their Virginia Headquarters) are killed within 24 hours. Not nearly enough time to deem whether an animal is adoptable or not. They even bought a giant fridge to store the corpses!
PETA is a corporation. Not a charity. Less than 1% of their 32 Million+ annual budget actually goes to directly helping animals. Most of it is spent making sexist/racist/ domestic abuse supporting commercials that won’t even air on television, giving bail outs to convicted arsonists and criminals, hiring/supporting any celebrity that claims to be vegetarian for five minutes, creating campaigns to target children (“Your mom kills animals”), fruitless lawsuits like suing Sea World for violating the constitution, and most recently, making porn. I’m not against porn, but I fail to see how it fucking helps animals.
PETA does not give a shit about animals.
I’m about to cry
Always reblog. A lot of people don’t know this side of PETA.
I remember seeing the mind bogglingly dreadful ad they made in which a badly bruised young woman reveals her injuries are from the SUPERPOWERED SPERM from her vegan boyfriend. The implications were both hilariously illogical, horrifically misogynistic and an insult to vegans - no, an insult to sentient creatures everywhere.
I did a bit of research into this “charity”, (because at first I seriously thought they were taking the piss, and it was a poorly thought out “gag” commercial - alas, it was not.) and yeah, they DO slaughter any creature they get their claws into. Their excuse is that they just can’t trust us horrible humans with the poor little dears and the only option, apparently, is to kill them and dump their corpses in a freezer.
Rehabilitating them and finding a good loving home where they can have a long, happy life is apparently furthering the Ebil Animal Murdering Human Agenda.
I wouldn’t give them the stream of my piss.
On the flipside though, DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT DONATE OR SUPPORT OR BUY INTO THE SITE PETAKILLSANIMALS
IT IS JUST AS BAD IF NOT WORSE
The website peta kills animals is put out by the CCF. The CCF is a front group for big tobacco, restaurants, meat industry, and alcohol. THEY ALSO KILL ANIMALS AND SUPPORT INHUMANE FACTORY FARMING
Question everything, and fact check EVERYTHING. Including and especially the “already fact-checked”
“We mistake sex for romance. Guys are taught that pushing a girl up against a wall is romance. Sex is easy; you can do it with anyone, yourself, with batteries. Romance is when someone you like walks into a room and they take your breath away. Romance is when two people are dancing and they fit together perfectly. Romance is when two people are walking next to each other and all of a sudden they find themselves holding hands, and they don’t know how that happened.”—John C. Moffi
I love this so much.
My mom is yelling at my brother and I overheard this.
Mom: GO TO YOUR ROOM
Brother: that's not fair
Mom: DO AS I SAY.
Brother: You never send Lizzie to her room when she's in trouble!!
Mom: Lizzie never leaves her room. If she were in trouble I'd make her sit in the living room or go outside or talk to human beings.
Me: I CAN HEAR YOU.
My grandpa has Alzheimer’s so he has no idea who my grandma is but everyday for the last three or four months he brings her in flowers from their garden and asks her to run away with him and be his wife and everyday she says she already is and everyday the smile my grandpa gets on his face is the most beautiful heartfelt thing I have ever seen.
