If you’ve worked in the fur industry or been vocal about your love for fur, then you have probably suffered some verbal abuse from animal rights activists. Animal activists like to claim they hold the moral high-ground and that they are the compassionate ones. Well, let’s look at some of the things these models of compassion say …

What they say about … poor labour practices in garment manufacturing in poorly regulated countries:

“I dont care about humans being exploited. animals arent in control of their destiny. period. i realise humans are massively destructive to everything. thats why i hate em.” [sic]

– animal rights activist (source)

If you hate humans so much, why don’t you go and live in the forest by yourself?


What they say about … committing activism crimes that land you in jail:

“We will demystify incarceration. Jail is not a problem. It presents an opportunity to recruit.”

– animal rights activist (source)

We agree! Let them all go to jail please!


What they say about … designer suicides. Two well-known fashion designers committed suicide in recent years, and this activist has a suggestion on why they might have ended their lives.

“I wonder if it is a coincidence that a number of designers who use fur, end up killing themselves? Hmmmm. Even they know how vile they are.”

– animal rights activist (source)

You are a jerk to even suggest this.


What they say about … AIDS research and the use of animals in medical testing:

“Even if animal tests produced a cure for AIDS, we’d be against it.

– Ingrid Newkirk, PETA (source)

Perhaps animal rights activists would like to volunteer themselves for medical testing?


What they say to … people who are pro-fur:

“You are as dumb as you look alike. It’s better to wear oil or whatever, just not a living being on me. How would it be if we kill your mother an’ skin her, so you can wear her skin as a jacket. That’d be cool, right? I guess you don’t care about any livin’ being. This post just made everyone know that you’re dumb as f*ck and potentional psychopath. You are clearly sadist though. Don’t post such comments on fb, we don’t need to know how stupid can you be, don’t promote your way of thinkin’, it’s stupid an’ everyone who read it knows you’re not a normal human being” [sic]

Could they please learn how to spell, or at least how to use spell check?
