• PETA barbeque a dog in Sydney

PETA are attention whoring cunts who are either too zealous or just outright moronic enough to believe the shite they spew out. Sheep shearing according to them: https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/1200/1*AWhqIQuBAYAWeh-Fon5Nig.jpeg This is an actual sheep just after being sheared for the first time in years: https://assets3.thrillist.com/v1/image/2618208/size/tmg-article_tall;jpeg_quality=20.jpg
Doesn't meat (and many other animal products actually) taste better if you treat your animals at least somewhat humanely, like let them graze and such rather than just stuff them in extremely claustrophobic pens and either starve or make them morbidly obese? Like the picture the guy posted above is rough but honestly the sheep looks healthy, they clearly leave enough wool on it so as to not cut into it's skin (which would in turn waste the sheep). I'm asking because I'm legit curious, but I do think this is the case.
Their recipe is terrible
it's fucked how they just fully ignore the fact that it's actually neglect to not shear a sheep at all. they just don't give a fuck at all.
Yeah this pretty much. As a vegan I don't like PETA as much as the next person because everything I see them do seems incredibly disingenuous / misleading on purpose. They actively sabotage themselves and the vegan movement by making everyone hate them. That being said if this was a pig on a spitroast people wouldn't bat an eyelid but are outraged because it's a different animal on a grill. I know eating things like cat/dog and a lot of other animals are taboo in western countries but again I don't really see the issue other than people have decided that one is OK and the other isn't for reasons, considering pigs act very much like dogs and are very intelligent and loving creatures.
TBH I think it's in poor taste either way having a spitroast in the middle of the road, being a dog that looks like it's been cooked alive just rubs salt into the wound.
This is like being anti-vegetarian and pretending to eat moss and sticks while shouting how stupid it is to eat plants.
You're not gonna get a good cook grilling it like that. If you're gonna cook the whole animal you're better off butterflying it or barbecuing it with a bigger pit with a lid and better heat control. It can be hard for amateurs but with practice you'll get the hang of it. Keep trying, peta.
If I could get a pet sheep for the price of a Woolley jacket i'd probably go for it, if they are anything like goats they actually make decent pets.
Hell, I'd eat people meat if it wasn't illegal.
There's a dude that lost his leg and had a chef prepare it for his friends https://www.vice.com/en_us/article/gykmn7/legal-ethical-cannibalism-human-meat-tacos-reddit-wtf So I mean, there are ways, but it'll literally cost a leg
It's extremely manipulative, especially in light of how many dogs they personally kill. Also, this is the kind of thing that would easily traumatize a child (sorry for pulling the 'think of the children' card)
If you shear a sheep and it looks like the first image...then you should not hold a job as a sheep shearer, I mean FFS.
BBQing any full bodied animal (with head) like that looks disturbing, nobody BBQs an entire pig/lamb/cow on the grill, you get cuts of meat and grill them separately. This is extremely manipulative.
It's basically advertising though - it's supposed to make a statement, not be a realistic portrayal; the point here isn't to show what it'd look like to barbecue a dog but to give people something to think about and sow discussion.
Peta has absolutely no interest in any form of discussion, though.
Ethical issues aside, eating your own species can cause significant health issues, which is evolution's way of trying to get you to not do that.
if they pulled that stunt here the outrage would be that the dog is fake and there was no food being served
What makes you say that? Discussion leads to people consider your argument, which can get people on your side. PETA isn't doing this to just make you feel like shit or because they feel like it, they want you to discuss the topic of eating animals.
No, that is actually literally why they're doing it. Their whole motto is to shame people into being vegan.
I mean they’re making an extreme statement to point about people’s moral hypocrisy. Part of discussion, especially one that intends to change a previously held belief, is it being uncomfortable and feeling bad.
Honestly, I think it's disgusting to eat dog. I would never do it myself. However I don't think I can poopoo on cultures that eat dogs nor societies that use dog as a meat source. I guess it's all a matter of what you're used to and what you believe is the moral good. Additionally I think horses are the stupidest domesticated animals and eating them is great.
Given the shit they pull regularly, some of which already got posted in this very thread, they're the last ones to have the slightest right to talk about people's hypocrisy.
Can you prove this? I don't get this, they should stop trying to convince people to be vegan because they put animals down?
This is literally their entire modus operandi. Look at their materials, specifically their billboards and stunts like this. I saw a billboard with a bunch of cattle juxtaposed with Jews in concentration camps. The nsrrstige that they're pushing is one that equates "speciesm" with racism. There is no discussion, no middle ground, nothing. Talk to literally any of them that you see at any event ever and attempt to open a discussion with them, you'll see what I'm talking about.
"nothing more than species" lmao are they for real I must be an absolute god damn bigot but I personally think dogs and humans have inherent genetic differences. I would even go as far as to say all dogs are dumb compared to most humans.
What's your recipe?
So you don't see the issue except for the issue you see then? If people in western cultures see cats and dogs as pet animals, that should be respected. Personally I wouldn't eat cat/dog because I feel an emotional connection to them, but I don't judge other cultures for doing so. In the same vein I'd eat a horse even though some people who keep horses as pets wouldn't, and I respect that as well.
Do they think people just drop an animal in the grill? Has peta forgotten what a butcher is?
I think PETA forgets what their own acronym is at times.
