Feed a fed horse; end up with a dead horse.

"Got it. I will never use the word “speciesism” again."

That's two of us. No problem.

Then you DO understand their point: there is no point, it’s just more BS from the PETA wackos/nutzburgers.

You’re typing pretty darned good for being so snookered.

What a pig in a poke from these horse's asses, this nest of vipers! Clearly, this proves that a leopard can't change its spots, and that a fish rots from the head down.

We need PETA like a fish needs a bicycle; these people are an albatross around out necks.

Finally, I understand that these people are the reason for this:

It was only after I hit "post" that it occurred to me that PETA might be offended by "drunk as a monkey" but if they are I guess I'll just have to live with that.

I coined that term, for this same definition, in a published magazine in 1991.

I wouldn’t lose any sleep over it. They’ve been studying “Drunken Monkeys” and birds, elephants etc, eating over-ripe and fermenting fruit (marulas, grapes etc), for decades.

brussel sprouts?

Eyew.

I’d rather have a juicy, thick, rare, prime rib.

Luckily, I don’t see “PETA sucks” on the list.

Words matter, and as our understanding of social justice evolves, our language evolves along with it,” reads a tweet on the official PETA Twitter account.

This is a variant of the belief that objective reality does not exist independent of consciousness, and that deep reality is a flux, and its appearance is a subjective creation by us based on the words that we use. So by manipulating language, leftards can create a reality that furthers their agenda.

The word “Speciesism” never in my entire life entered into my vocabulary, so it isn’t a problem to remove it!

How good is that...:)

These people need some serious medical intervention.

I have just the treatment for them:

Tar.

Feathers.
