dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Is it not true that their shelters have an absurdly high kill rate and that their founder believed that "pets" are better off dead then domesticated? These are the things I was told and would like them corrected if they are wrong.

PETA intentionally bring in suffering animals that are so sick or wounded they cannot be treated. Humane euthanasia is the only option for these animals.

They also collect such animals from shelters that are no kill, which inflates the statistics further.
