Some Zionist TikTokers made Miss Rachel cry and people are freaking out
She did a fundraiser for Palestine and they told her that she didn’t give a shit about Palestinian children.
Now people who have no idea what BlockOut is are just seeing Miss Rachel crying and saying shit like, “who made my coparent cry?” and “we ride at dawn” and those videos are getting more views than her fundraiser did.
You're viewing a single thread.
I'm guessing BlockOut is one of those Front groups to make pro-palestinian supporters look incredibly annoying to laymen, like PETA.
PETA is not a front group to make animal rights activists look annoying to laypeople. For evidence of this I point to the reaction of comrades on this website when they are confronted by the numerous animal rights activists also on this website. The problem lies not with the people advocating for the rights of animals. Carnists know their position is untenable so the only thing they can muster is a vague manufactured "annoyance" group hug to reassure each other they don't actually have to rethink anything.
No, PETA sucks ass, but okay go off
I think they make mistakes, but are overall effective at bringing animal rights issues to the masses. Interested in hearing why you have that opinion.
I have heard literally dozens of instances of PETA doing actually fucked up things to animals (i.e. "freeing" shelter pets... to be euthanized
), so, seems like they fucking suck to me. I've never heard anyone IRL who likes animals say anything good about them, but rather that they support the SPCA instead because they don't do fucked up shit to the animals they claim to want to protect"freeing" shelter pets... to be euthanized
I'm assuming you're referring to how PETA shelters euthanize some of the pets they get. I encourage you flex your big marxist brain and reflect on why that might be for more than ten seconds before reading the next paragraph.
So-called "no-kill" shelters only are able to operate as such by being very choosy and only taking pets that are very likely to be adopted. Think young cute pets without behavioral problems or expensive diseases. PETA shelters accept all animals. So what can you do once the number of unwanted animals exceeds capacity? I would like you to tell me.
Keep applying that Marxist brain and one also eventually comes to understand that the existence of domesticated beings as we know them today (mutants bred for the explicit purpose of labor, companionship, etc., exclusively for human exploitation) is at odds with veganism.
While it would be bad if they were doing the cartoonishly evil thing implied by such complaints (ooh, they're kidnapping and killing ol' Scraps!), it is perfectly ideologically consistent to avoid reproducing the exploitation of these beings, shorten their suffering when no other option is available, and otherwise work toward the abolition of domestication as currently practiced.
I live with two dogs, both aging and with rapidly diminishing quality of life. Soon, I will have to decide how dignified their deaths will be, because humans have colonized even death. If you (not you, specifically, but generic readers) believe that PETA relishes the reality forced on them by puppy mills, irresponsible reproduction practices, and the normalization of exploitation, I don't think you've thought about this enough.
Yes, this is why spay and neuter and trap, neuter, release programs are so important. We need to also be actively reducing the population of pets while caring for the ones that currently exist as best we can. And sometimes the "best" option is to euthanize, but it is definitely not a decision taken lightly.
I encourage you to read up more on the killing animals thing. They essentially do it out of compassion, because most of the animals that end up at PETA are cases shelters are not equipped to handle and thus require a higher rate of euthanization. Even our local humane society has a relatively high euthanization rate, but it's because most of the other local shelters are no-kill and so their worst cases get sent there. I am friends with serious animal activists and they critically support PETA, though are part of different orgs themselves. Like I said, they have made mistakes like any other large org, but I think they have been a net good for animal rights.
It’s not a formal group so much as a couple prominent people giving guidelines of action to an amorphous blob of people. Y’know, internet activism.
