I would say a two tailed talking rat, with a human shaped embryo in it's glowing belly is a monster.

The same people who lament killing a rat, celebrate killing a human baby.

there's a cat food commercial where the actress introduces her cat by name, then says it is her equal.

for the record, I have no doubt in my mind that she is right.

Not new. They've been trying that angle for ages. They are flatly antihuman.

They should lead by example and remove themselves from the equation.

It's just algorthms giving you what you're likely to react to emotionally based on your browsing history. The hivemind knows you usually stop scrolling to look at such content. The more you rage, the more kilobytes you use, the more you react, the easier you are to profile, sell stuff to and be used to spread and normalize the necessary agenda. You hate the idea, yet you've copied and distributed this image, more people saw it thanks to you, more search spiders recorded and indexed it somewhere. The more you do it, the more people will get used to the concept even if it's negative initially. Overton window, you know... Mr Zuckerberg, Mr Bezos and Mr Soros approve smile

Meta has become very good at tracking, Instagram gives me very specific content based on what it reads from other apps, opened tabs and messenger conversations. Decent speech recognition, too. When you're using Meta's apps, they listen, store and analyze what you say and combine it with data from your contact lists, microphone, camera, phone calls and geolocation. I almost feel bad for them because they can't sell me anything anymore because of the Iron Curtain. I'm still getting brainwashed, it's the price I pay for lounging on the couch and scrolling through memes and reels.


Fancy rats are nice pets. Lab rats are good animals, too, we have a memorial to them in my hometown. Barn rats are pests, just like stray dogs, and must be controlled/exterminated.

There is plenty of Pied Pipers to go around. When they come around trying to collect, barriers such as Tatiana described are effective. Then there are those of us that are deaf, blind and/or crippled and just plain can't keep up. But never the less the Piper will get what's coming to him in the end !

There is no point in talking to people who are adherents to the animal rights religion. Logic, common sense, discussions of reality, fall on deaf ears when talking to any zealot.


Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)

The farther removed we become from an agrarian society the more the followers of this thought pattern will develop. Many see pets as family members equal to their kids or spouse.

I think instead of bringing the rats to them, we bring them to the rats cool

a good number of them have , just not fast enough , they are taking the slow road but trying to make all the converts they can along the way.


America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

In some cities rats and people are very much alike.
