This Brutal Anti-PETA Rant Is Going Viral, And People Are Shocked To Learn About Their Hypocrisy
People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) is the largest animal rights organization in the world, but not everyone thinks they’re very righteous. For example, Calum Mcswiggan claims people shouldn’t donate money to them at all. Considering that PETA is funded almost exclusively by member contributions (according to their official 2017 financial statement, contributions amassed to roughly 96% of their $48,5M revenue), it’s basically saying that the organization should cease to exist. Someone, however, fully agree with Calum’s savage roast and have continued his line of thought, offering more examples why no one should give the animal welfare organization money. As their intense PETA protest went viral, people were shocked by most of the claims. Scroll down to read the text and let us know what you think about it in the comment section.

Animal welfare, working with animals and zoology in general has been my life now for close to four decades. And as someone who genuinely cares for, campaigns on behalf of and studies animals, PETA is the most hateful and confused organisation in the industry. Anyone who thinks PETA are interested in the welfare of animals are mistaken; it's nothing but a promotional and publiclity tool. If you really want to help secure the welfare of animals, then lobby your local MP, volunteer once a week at a shelter, buy free-range where at all possible.

according to peta "animals are people too" but they kill thousands of cats and dogs each year. cats and dogs that many of them think are equal or equivalent to people. i think they have just scraped the surface of the evil they are willing to take part in.

As a vegan who is also involved in cat rescue and TNR of feral cats I can't stand them. Most large scale so called animal welfare organisations are more interested in fundraising and number crunching than saving animals. PETA's policy re feral cats is they should all be killed. If you want to give money to help animals donate to a locally run small scale rescue where the volunteers give their own time, money and hearts.

I have a great idea for PETA: RETURN PETA TO THEIR NATURAL STATE. Y'know. Naked, weaponless, no technology, no health care, none of that imposed unnatural stuff.... Humans do *great* that way! It's in their best interests! (Note: sarcasm. Note: I loathe PETA. They need to do as they preach --- live like our wild ancestors! --- and see how well that works out for them.)

Funny that you hit on "no health care"...the head of PETA is a diabetic who takes insulin. Insulin is tested on animals for safety. She doesn't seem to care about THAT. (I'm a diabetic who takes insulin. I'm also severely allergic to most insulin, and have to take 3 different antihistamines to not react. Health care is serious business.)

I'm honestly surprised that anyone still thinks they're a bunch of good people and not the horde of evil and heartless, money-grubbing monsters they are. I had to explain to my parents AGAIN why Peta is horrible and evil. I don't know how they manage to uphold their squeaky-clean public image-- oh, wait, I do. They use the money meant for actually protecting and caring for animals, and use it for b******t advertising campaigns, lawyers and paying people off. Sick.
Michael Wayne Alvin 6 years ago
The unvarnished truth is that PETA does not believe in people having domestic pets although they try to hide this. For instance, they believe that dogs should go back to being wild like the wolves from whom they descended. There have also been cases where they planted feces, etc. to make it look like the owner was abusive so they could take their pets. To anyone who believes in PETA, I've got some swampland that I would love to sell to you.

Support SPCA or ASPCA or any animal shelter! SPCA cares about the animals and only euthanises if the animal is to sick to live AND they have an outside opinion from a vet. If the animal stayed in their care for a long time before having to be euthanised, (which is a very small chance because they take good care of the animals) they have a little memorial out the back (well, at least the one I go to has) and some of them have “mascot animals” which are like a pet that the whole place owns.

I'd say support your LOCAL shelter. When you send donation to the ASPCA organization, not much trickles down to the local shelters. My Shadow is a shelter dog...she's a purebred poodle. Breed-specific shelters are out there and do a lot of good, too.

Greenpeace spreads plenty of unscientific propaganda for example against nuclear energy and GMO and too many poorly educated people believe in them. Nuclear energy, if it plants are built in the places where is not risk of huge natural disasters, is very envinronmentally friendly way to get electricity. GMO is also very safe and healthy way to produce food and it can also help many countries where farming has lots of problems and people don't have enough food because of that. GMO crops need less water and pesticides to survive and those can be also modified to be more healthy than the normal plants, like the famous 'golden rice'.

I think they took it way too far a long time ago. Those magazines they handed out to kids were just horrible. The term "euthenize" is just horrible, because it sounds like "youth", which is associated with good things. I agree that people and animals are equal though. We do need different dietary things, like Jumanji the Fox, or else they will suffer malnutrition. Protect animals! Stand against PETA! (By the way, that stands for People Eating Tasty Animals).

The rescue sites are usually best. One of my favorites is The Last Post (and another like it whose name I can't remember.) The Last Post takes cats whose owners die; I believe you have to make arrangements beforehand, and they do prefer if the cat comes with a legacy. But they keep the pet until its natural death. They have a beautiful house that belongs to the cats. The other place is a homeless shelter for cats. They've been featured on (I think) Animal Planet (Or Nat'l Geo Wild, I can't remember) and have 800 cats at the moment. Both are no-kill (obviously.) There's several dog sanctuaries--one takes 'vicious' dogs to keep them from being killed. I haven't seen anything on that for quite a while, but I'm sure an internet search would find it.

They are being super-hypocritical. No wearing of animal products. Ha! For every pleather-wearing PETA freakoid, think: most plastics start out as petroleum-based chemicals. Where does petroleum come from? Being a FOSSIL-fuel, it comes from degraded animals and plants from eons ago. So unless you have a way to separate out fossil fuel that comes from animals (carbon-based) and that which comes from plants (also carbon-based), you have a dilemma. Most likely you are wearing a dead-animal product. Get over yourselves!

well actually by law in certain areas of the USA it is illegal to leave pets in cars on hot days and if someone doesn't show up in something like 30 minutes a random citizen is legally allowed to break a window and remove the animal if possible. it has to do with animal rights as well.

These @$#@$#@#@$#@ are so @#@#$ Couldn’t we just build more animal shelters rather than euthanize dogs and cats? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A shelter should be a temporary compromise for dogs and cats. It is not a solution to companion animal homelessness. Dogs and cats need more than food, water, and shelter from the elements. They need and deserve loving care, regular human companionship, respect for their individuality, and the opportunity to play and run. As difficult as it may be for us to accept, euthanasia (carried out by veterinarians or shelter staff trained in intravenous injection of sodium pentobarbital) is often the most compassionate and dignified way for unwanted animals to leave this uncaring world.

What a load of s**t. I can see someone has been drinking the Nathan Winograd kool aid. And people will buy into it because there are minor hints of truth taken out of context and twisted into a monster. I would suggest people fact check with snopes and some other sites before trusting this propaganda hit piece. Btw, Nathan Winograd has helped some cities to go no-kill for all shelters... sure, they are beyond capacity, animals are dying of disease, dangerous animals are being adopted out, and bites are up substantially, And if people knew that their "shelter" is not actually a shelter and that they provide free euthanasia services for the Hampton Rhodes area for people who have sick, dying and severely injured animals, then they might realize why their kill numbers are so high. They also take in animals that none of the other shelters will take in because they are not adoptable. So, while he will toute all these other shelters, what people don't know is that they refuse animals.

The animal rights organisation posted a huge billboard (advertising board) in the city, persuading people to see each crab as an individual with a personality and go vegan. The scientific name for the species, Callinectes sapidus, means the blue crab, Atlantic blue crab, is a species of crab native to the waters of the western Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, and introduced internationally.Another meanings of Callinectes sapidus is,‘savory beautiful swimmers’ in English, which pretty much sums up just how long we have been craving (strong desire) the sweet meat of these abundant creatures. Did PETA really think advertising would make any difference to the manners of people’s eating habits?Who knows. But it certainly has people talked about it!

Don't let your upset over anything Peta does or does not do tarnish your view of animal rights in general. Animals still need protection from exploitation and slaughter. Too often people think Peta is the end-all be-all of animal rights and that simply isn't true. The animals still need us to stop using them and abusing them. Anger at Peta and the messes they've created, doesn't change that. Before throwing out the baby with the bathwater, please take a look at some of the honest and responsible animal advocacy organizations: Mercy for Animals http://www.mercyforanimals.org/ Compassion Over Killing http://cok.net/ In Defense of Animals https://www.idausa.org/about-ida/ Vegan Outreach https://veganoutreach.org/ The animals need our help.

PETA - I've hated them since the 70s, when I sent in $5 to help the poor rabbits who were getting tested (PETA was sending out postcards about it). I got on their mailing list & they started sending me their magazine. Previously, my thoughts on PETA were, basically, that if Paul & Linda McCartney endorsed them they are fine. Well - that magazine! Lots of borderline fanatical c**p in it, but what finally killed it for me was the article advocating feeding my CATS a vegetarian diet! That will KILL felines! I wrote a letter, they responded in condescending fashion, I wrote another and told them I wanted the subscription stopped, they sent another uglier letter & didn't stop sending the magazine - until finally I just 'returned to sender' every time I got something. I've hated them ever since then.

This story made me look up PETA's founder (wikipedia). She saw a dog cruelly killed when she was a child. When she was about 21, she took some lost kittens to a shelter, expecting them to be found a home. They were immediately put down. She went to work there and (so she says) eventually took to going to work early to kill the animals to save them from the abuse of the other employees. Madness. It was a different time, I don't exactly know what I would have done, but there must have been someone else who cared enough to help expose what was going on.

No, it started much earlier. As a teenage punk in the 2000s, I recall going to various activist/pseudo activist presentations and festivals. I remember seeing documentaries about the "dark side" of PETA, and it was a very well suspsicious organisation back then too. At least for the underground scene. Which means these things might have started in the late 1990s as well.

PETA is not a traditional animal shelter. They operate one small shelter—a shelter of last resort for animals who need euthanasia to end their suffering (many of whom have been rejected by other facilities), including dogs who are aggressive and unadoptable because they have been kept chained their entire lives; feral cats dying of contagious diseases; animals who are wracked with cancer; elderly animals who have no quality of life and whose desperate guardians brought them to PETA because they can’t afford to pay a vet to euthanize them; and the list goes on. A painless end is a kindness for these animals, and the services PETA provides are vitally needed in an area where many people can’t afford to take their animals to a veterinarian. This video explains more about PETA’s work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EG0sh6rpC14

Animal welfare, working with animals and zoology in general has been my life now for close to four decades. And as someone who genuinely cares for, campaigns on behalf of and studies animals, PETA is the most hateful and confused organisation in the industry. Anyone who thinks PETA are interested in the welfare of animals are mistaken; it's nothing but a promotional and publiclity tool. If you really want to help secure the welfare of animals, then lobby your local MP, volunteer once a week at a shelter, buy free-range where at all possible.

As a vegan who is also involved in cat rescue and TNR of feral cats I can't stand them.

The unvarnished truth is that PETA does not believe in people having domestic pets although they try to hide this. For instance, they believe that dogs should go back to being wild like the wolves from whom they descended. There have also been cases where they planted feces, etc. to make it look like the owner was abusive so they could take their pets.

Support SPCA or ASPCA or any animal shelter! SPCA cares about the animals and only euthanises if the animal is to sick to live AND they have an outside opinion from a vet. If the animal stayed in their care for a long time before having to be euthanised, (which is a very small chance because they take good care of the animals) they have a little memorial out the back (well, at least the one I go to has) and some of them have “mascot animals” which are like a pet that the whole place owns.

GMO is also very safe and healthy way to produce food and it can also help many countries where farming has lots of problems and people don't have enough food because of that.

They have a beautiful house that belongs to the cats. The other place is a homeless shelter for cats. They've been featured on (I think) Animal Planet (Or Nat'l Geo Wild, I can't remember) and have 800 cats at the moment. Both are no-kill (obviously.) There's several dog sanctuaries--one takes 'vicious' dogs to keep them from being killed. I haven't seen anything on that for quite a while, but I'm sure an internet search would find it.

These @$#@$#@#@$#@ are so @#@#$ Couldn’t we just build more animal shelters rather than euthanize dogs and cats? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A shelter should be a temporary compromise for dogs and cats. It is not a solution to companion animal homelessness. Dogs and cats need more than food, water, and shelter from the elements. They need and deserve loving care, regular human companionship, respect for their individuality, and the opportunity to play and run. As difficult as it may be for us to accept, euthanasia (carried out by veterinarians or shelter staff trained in intravenous injection of sodium pentobarbital) is often the most compassionate and dignified way for unwanted animals to leave this uncaring world.

Btw, Nathan Winograd has helped some cities to go no-kill for all shelters... sure, they are beyond capacity, animals are dying of disease, dangerous animals are being adopted out, and bites are up substantially, And if people knew that their "shelter" is not actually a shelter and that they provide free euthanasia services for the Hampton Rhodes area for people who have sick, dying and severely injured animals, then they might realize why their kill numbers are so high. They also take in animals that none of the other shelters will take in because they are not adoptable. So, while he will toute all these other shelters, what people don't know is that they refuse animals.

Support animal shelters who actually help animals not PETA, they are already winning victories and getting laws in place to get rid of people's animals, that are their livelihood.

The animal rights organisation posted a huge billboard (advertising board) in the city, persuading people to see each crab as an individual with a personality and go vegan. The scientific name for the species, Callinectes sapidus, means the blue crab, Atlantic blue crab, is a species of crab native to the waters of the western Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf of Mexico, and introduced internationally.Another meanings of Callinectes sapidus is,‘savory beautiful swimmers’ in English, which pretty much sums up just how long we have been craving (strong desire) the sweet meat of these abundant creatures. Did PETA really think advertising would make any difference to the manners of people’s eating habits?Who knows. But it certainly has people talked about it!

Not to mention the time that PETA published those sickening propaganda riffs of famous Nintendo games like Mario and Pokémon in order to brain wash kids, you can even find 'em on those terrible free flash game websites. Disgusting 😠

It's organisations like this that give people who really care about animals a bad name. I'm a veggie so is my little boy but I don't care if other people chose to eat meat (my hubby does) and I'd certainly never feed my rescue dog a vegetarian diet as she needs meat to live.

PETA would rather see 'freed' animals die of disease and starvation, because they cannot hunt for themselves, have no resistance to wild diseases, and are totally unsuited to being in the wild, than see humans love and take care of them. I was near a local PETA office to visit another business, and they got a full earful, including the deluded volunteer manning the front desk.

I've worked with shearers before and the sheep are fine. the wool needs to be taken off or some do get sick and die eventually. (not the mess PETA show.) I'm not sure we have PETA in Aust but we still have some extreme nutcases (not killing dogs and cats just coz of thier breeds) that do some crazy stuff for silly causes. I'm all for treating the enviroment and animals right but there is a point where it goes to silly

I used to defend PETA and their shock tactics by saying that sometimes, shock is the only way to make people wake up....which I still believe...but after reading the above, it's impossible to defend the means they go to in order to shock.

In the 70's they did a lot to publicize the torture of animals being used to test cosmetics and in medical experiments, and may have been instrumental in fostering the movement against animal testing - but lately they have indeed gone psycho. Thank heaven there are so many local and national orgs that are doing such good work to help the helpless.

Don't let your upset over anything Peta does or does not do tarnish your view of animal rights in general. Animals still need protection from exploitation and slaughter. Too often people think Peta is the end-all be-all of animal rights and that simply isn't true. The animals still need us to stop using them and abusing them. Anger at Peta and the messes they've created, doesn't change that. Before throwing out the baby with the bathwater, please take a look at some of the honest and responsible animal advocacy organizations: Mercy for Animals http://www.mercyforanimals.org/ Compassion Over Killing http://cok.net/ In Defense of Animals https://www.idausa.org/about-ida/ Vegan Outreach https://veganoutreach.org/ The animals need our help.

Can't stand PETA. I'm a Canadian & encountered PETA protesting the Calgary Stampede rodeo. The dude that approached me was wearing leather moccasins, so I asked him if it was better to ride the bull or wear it? I went on to inform him that the animals performing in most rodeo events are athletes, just like the people & they are cared for as well as any show animal. Now, some events are dangerous to man & animal & should be banned. But those that involve riding something that will buck you off...gives those animals a longer life cuz without rodeo, every one of them would be on somebody's plate - whether from the grocery meat counter or a dog food can.

PETA - I've hated them since the 70s, when I sent in $5 to help the poor rabbits who were getting tested (PETA was sending out postcards about it). I got on their mailing list & they started sending me their magazine. Previously, my thoughts on PETA were, basically, that if Paul & Linda McCartney endorsed them they are fine. Well - that magazine! Lots of borderline fanatical c**p in it, but what finally killed it for me was the article advocating feeding my CATS a vegetarian diet! That will KILL felines! I wrote a letter, they responded in condescending fashion, I wrote another and told them I wanted the subscription stopped, they sent another uglier letter & didn't stop sending the magazine - until finally I just 'returned to sender' every time I got something. I've hated them ever since then.

I’ve never supported PETA because of a completely sexist advertising campaign they had and their radical tactics to promote their “agenda”, but I didn’t know half of this stuff. Promote veganism but kill 1100 dogs? This is complete b******t. Honestly people should know about this and put money into no kill shelters in need and rescuing dogs themselves. I just want to puch their ceo and simulatiously hug my rescue dogs.

This story made me look up PETA's founder (wikipedia). She saw a dog cruelly killed when she was a child. When she was about 21, she took some lost kittens to a shelter, expecting them to be found a home. They were immediately put down. She went to work there and (so she says) eventually took to going to work early to kill the animals to save them from the abuse of the other employees. Madness. It was a different time, I don't exactly know what I would have done, but there must have been someone else who cared enough to help expose what was going on.

As far as I know this “PETA hate” started in 2012, right after Wikileaks published info about Coca-cola hiring agency to spy on PETA. Hasn’t PETA stepped on someone toes? In Nov 2017 PETA still protested under CC building saying they have animal blood on their cans.

No, it started much earlier. As a teenage punk in the 2000s, I recall going to various activist/pseudo activist presentations and festivals. I remember seeing documentaries about the "dark side" of PETA, and it was a very well suspsicious organisation back then too. At least for the underground scene. Which means these things might have started in the late 1990s as well.

First, you believe PETA, then their opponents, then others ... Based on pictures, news, posts on Facebook. You need to study facts, evidence and have an OWN sentence. And nowadays, when the human race is doing everything to destroy the animal and vegetable world, any action showing it is indicated and needed. You need to think about who has an interest in undermining the credibility of PETA. And that you can do it for money too

PETA is not a traditional animal shelter. They operate one small shelter—a shelter of last resort for animals who need euthanasia to end their suffering (many of whom have been rejected by other facilities), including dogs who are aggressive and unadoptable because they have been kept chained their entire lives; feral cats dying of contagious diseases; animals who are wracked with cancer; elderly animals who have no quality of life and whose desperate guardians brought them to PETA because they can’t afford to pay a vet to euthanize them; and the list goes on. A painless end is a kindness for these animals, and the services PETA provides are vitally needed in an area where many people can’t afford to take their animals to a veterinarian. This video explains more about PETA’s work: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EG0sh6rpC14

You don't see it as a problem for someone to steal someone else's healthy well taken care of animal for no reason? Or to kill dogs just because of their breed, when they claim they want to save animals? If you don't see anything wrong with stealing or killing someone's companion that's your own problem.
