PETA skewered for claiming that people eat animals because of ‘supremacy’ beliefs

By Aubrie Spady, Fox News
June 19, 2023

People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), the world’s largest animal advocacy organization, was grilled on Twitter for claiming that people eat animals because of their “supremacy.”

“Supremacy is at the root of why people think it’s okay to eat other animals,” the controversial group tweeted Saturday.

Meat lovers immediately began flooding the comment section with responses such as “let me ponder this as I eat my burger.”

“I will fully admit I am supreme to animals. Feels good to be able to eat 100% beef fed beef tonight,” one user wrote.

“So why do animals think it’s ok to eat other animals?” another user questioned.

Leftists destroy everything they touch. Look at education. - Dennis Prager

Tell me, what is so great about "inferiority"?  That would describe Leftists nicely.

There once was a snake in our yard that thought itself superior to the robin's egg in the nest under the deck. So he ate it.  :shrug:
Yesterday, I considered myself superior to the Angus ground chuck hamburgers on the grill - so I ate one.
Right now, I'm about to consider myself superior to a cheese and pickle sandwich.

Are we ready to stop taking PETA seriously yet?

"The most terrifying force of death, comes from the hands of Men who wanted to be left Alone. They try, so very hard, to mind their own business and provide for themselves and those they love. They resist every impulse to fight back, knowing the forced and permanent change of life that will come from it. They know, that the moment they fight back, their lives as they have lived them, are over. -Alexander Solzhenitsyn

I dunno, I kinda like protein that also tastes good.
I am not and never have been a leftist.

If, as anti-Covid-vaxxers claim, https://www.poynter.org/fact-checking/2021/robert-f-kennedy-jr-said-the-covid-19-vaccine-is-the-deadliest-vaccine-ever-made-thats-not-true/ , https://gospelnewsnetwork.org/2021/11/23/covid-shots-are-the-deadliest-vaccines-in-medical-history/ , The Vaccine is deadly, where in the US have Pfizer and Moderna hidden the millions of bodies of those who died of "vaccine injury"?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

We do eat more meat than we need. But we do need meat  as part of our diet.
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

Medically, not true.  My brother and sister-in-law are vegans and never eat meat.  They are extremely healthy
and fit.  Tofu is a favorite of theirs, full of nutrition.  I think they may even drink milk.

I have never seen a healthy looked vegan.  In fact, they look pasty white or jaundice yellow in color.

My message to all about PETA?

Every dollar donated to these pukes is a dollar that could have been donated to local shelters that are terribly underfunded, unheralded, and underappreciated.  Please let anyone stupid enough to be duped by them this fact.

Side note.  Always donate to your local shelter/humane society and not to the ASPCA.

Whenever Peta gets a pet turned in by people thinking Peta loves animals, Peta has those unfortunate pets killed.  Not one thin dime of Peta is used to actually help animals.  Peta is beneath any animals they deal with.

Peta has said having animals as pets is cruelty to animals.

Vegans think themselves superior to meat eaters.
Atheists think themselves superior to believers.
Leftists think themselves superior to "right wing religious extremists."

Conservatives just try to wade through all the insanity surrounding us and enjoy our families, lives, faith, and America.

People have no idea. Shut off modern refrigeration. See what happens. After all the dying's done, people will be eating MORE meat. Because meat is easier to preserve without refrigeration.

PETA is a symptom of modernity. And modernity is a curse.

I eat animals because they are delicious and they satisfy my hunger, unlike kale.
