The animal rights group today released a new video to cry over milk, equating the nutritious drink with Nazism. Following the rise in Trump Derangement Syndrome and the progressive left’s hysteria over white supremacism, PETA states:
“Did you know that milk has long been a symbol used by white supremacists?”
It’s an alternative fact accompanied by an equally ludicrous video, which they published on social media. They call milk the neo-Nazi drink of choice, stating that it has “long been” a symbol used by white supremacist groups as a “thinly veiled allegory for racial purity.”
I thought this might have been an April Fool’s joke. I was wrong…
Seriously, this just reinforces why I could never be a member of Peta. Philosophically I should be, as I believe in the ethical treatment of animals. I can’t hunt for sport or recreation, if I’m not gonna eat it I won’t shoot it and I think livestock should have the best quality of life possible. I don’t see pets as merely property and I think needless cruelty to animals should be a crime. I’m even good with living without fur, we can make synthetics and minks shouldn’t be killed for a coat.
But the extremists have so hijacked the organization that they consider it a form of genocide to spray ants in your house with bug spray. They have no sane middle ground and it prevents me from sending them any money or support. So I just save a rescue dog whenever I can, even though they consider that a form of slavery.
