    People who advocate against animal cruelty are a special kind of stupid. Totally destructive of any (fundamentally not so bad) businesses that give time the time of day, and utterly ineffective at actually meaningfully changing the mass cruelty of the meat industry. Absolutely catastrophic virtue signaling. PETA “shelters” have a higher kill (euthanasia) rate than any other organization.

      This is an interesting collection of words. It’s not clear what you’re trying to say, but I’m left with the sense that I probably disagree.

      Maybe collect your thoughts, work out what you want to say and try again?

      What the fuck are you try to say? Because one bad organization does bad things, no one can say we should move away from torturing animals for extra profit?

      If you actually care about animals dying in kill shelters the solutions are to open more shelters, do more to stop abusive conditions for animals before they get out of hand, and most importantly stop breeding animals. Animals are killed either because shelters don’t want to take them in do to their condition or they are too full. You can blame the no kill shelters as well, because they don’t take in every animal. But they aren’t really to blame either, people who support the industries that breed pets are.
