    The horrors of modern medicine, ladies and gentleman.

    You can easily critique PETA because they’re mostly stupid, but they’re not wrong that the treatment of these animals in pursuit of medical knowledge is pretty damn inhumane. The statement from the PETA representative is hyperbolic, as usual, and kind of misses the bigger picture of the treatment of the animals in general.

      Frankly, the fact that they do have a point, buried somewhere under the publicity stunts, is the most infuriating thing about PETA.

      People who hate peta are mostly stupidly repeating KFC sponsored talking points. Peta alone is the reason 90% of animal protection laws exists on the US.
