Won’t they die eventually if you don’t remove the wool? Better just throw it on the trash according to peta

Harvesting wool can be pretty brutal tbh. I think they refer to that techniques
Google “mulesing” If you want to know more

It’s funny, I live in the bush and locals take care of the wombats, run native animal shelters, volunteer to rescue injured animals on roads and manage the environment so they have safe animal specific spaces.
But apparently we are animal haters because these same people ride horses. Organisations like PETA are for city ppl that will never meet the animals they profess to care so much about

I think you are missing the point of the post. They fully understand where wool comes from. They are advocating to stop wearing and buying wool

If we shaved the woolly mammoth they would’ve still be here.

There’s a conspiracy that peta is owned by Big Meat to push anti vegan messages and make them look like bumbling fools. When this kind of tripe appears, it can only be true.

So humans do not have a responsibility for the animals WE domesticated? Abandoning animals we shaped from the wild for our paltry, human “ethical” treatment of animals? PETA is such a joke. Literal brainworms.

The best way to understand PETA isn’t that they are pro animal, it’s that they are anti people.

Look if PETA wanted to impress me they wouldn’t throw ketchup on women wearing furs but red paint on Hells Angels outside a dive bar.

It’s about exploitation. Using animals for our benefit. You are right they would die without human intervention because we made them that way. Cows too.

While getting wool in a gentle way is not a bad thing, the way wool ends up getting sheared in bulk settings is not gentle in any way and is honestly fucked up. Similar to how milking a cow doesn’t have to be a fucked process in any way but factory farming makes it brutal as shit

This is not a facepalm. The facepalm is people not recognising the cruelty needed to get wool.

Due to how they have been bred over the years, they need to be clipped otherwise they will die.

Im fully convinced these guys are meat industry shills to discredit environmental movements and make animal welfare peeps look like crazy people.

Oil companies have running peta for decades. They are not a serious organization.

As a person who was vegan for 18 years, I’d like to say fuck PETA. They’re a net negative for the vegan movement.

And thats why we should use synthetic materials that dont decompose and are hazardous to nature/animals

Peta straight up murders animals but want to bish about wool? Are they for serious?
komanderkyle on
PETA doesn’t want people to just stop eating meat, They want people to not control animals in any way.
For them you having a pet dog is equal to killing and eating cows.
It’s an idealistic concept that in no way can actually work, humans are animals too we can’t really remove ourselves from nature but PETA thinks we should all wear flax/cotton clothes and eat grains.
Then you see them take peoples dogs and euthanize them. So obviously they don’t mind killing animals, it’s the fact that a domestic dog exists at all is an insult.

If not clothing then why made of clothes material?

Half the population of New Zealand will find this picture strangely arousing.
Is nobody gonna point out this woman is wearing clothing that most likely came from an animal even if only the seam threads lol if it wasn’t animals its plastic aka oil, these people are so convinced of their own superiority but they don’t have enough brain cells between them to rub together. It’s no different than the idiots who hate big oil but complain on the internet using machines or devices that are heavily created with plastic and heavy rare metals lol.
