PETA reach an all time low – even for them – as they celebrate human deaths caused by bird flu.
Day after day after day we are bombarded with stories from all around the world of another case of bird flu being confirmed. People are in an uproar, because *gasp* birds who are raised in filthy, cramped sheds and treated like shit their entire lives carry diseases. Who would have thought? Now, don’t get me wrong, I don’t think anyone who has contracted the horrible disease “deserves what they got”, but you have to admit that it’s justice for animals that was a long time coming. The universe has a way of balancing things out, ya know? The U.S. alone tortures and murders 27 billion animals every year for food. Try to wrap your head around that number for a second. In comparison, only about 524,000 people have died of AIDS in the U.S. since the disease broke out decades ago. If you can’t do the math, let me help you: that many animals are killed every 10 minutes. Experts have estimated that as many as 150 million people could die within years of bird flu once it reaches pandemic level (yes, it’s a when, not an if). That still won’t touch the number of deaths we as humans have caused and continue to cause, but it certainly is a step toward evening the scale. To all of you who still eat flesh, you can make all the excuses you want to not go vegetarian now, but there will come a time soon when you won’t have a choice.
