YouTuber Destroyes PETA On Twitter And We Can't Get Enough Of This Roast

by Elana

When one sits down to think about who, in the world, is fighting for animal rights, one will usually think first and foremost: PETA. People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, most commonly recognized and known as PETA, is a nonprofit corporation that originated in Virginia in 1980.

Its slogan is "Animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on, use for entertainment, or abuse in any other way," and most people believe at face value that the people behind PETA value animals above all else. However, there is a darker underside to PETA that not many know about. Did you know that a press release by the Center for Consumer Freedom in March 2017 proved that in 2016 alone and Norfolk, Virginia alone, they killed over 1400 cats and dogs? It's completely true.

Will Coggin, research director at the Center for Consumer Freedom, says that PETA defends their actions:

PETA has defended its atrocious kill rates for years by saying it takes ‘unadoptable’ dogs that no other shelter will take.

However, Heather Harper-Troje, who worked for PETA’s Community Animal Project, is apart of an ongoing lawsuit and filed an affidavit that would suggest PETA is flat out lying including that “[Ingrid Newkirk (PETA President and Co-Founder)] said that an effort to adopt out an animal was a waste of PETA’s money and effort.” and “We would routinely euthanize healthy puppies and kittens and other highly adoptable pets."

Tired of the nonsense coming from PETA and the misconceptions the general public had about them, Callum McSwiggan, a popular YouTube vlogger from the UK, took to Twitter to tear them down brutal and hilarious piece by brutal and hilarious piece.

Callum regularly vlogs about LGBT rights, mental health, and other social issues so he seems like the type of person who might be totally on board with PETA but the best advocates this world has to offer are the ones that see through the B.S. and tell it to you straight.
