I'm split on protecting the horses. They aren't native to the land and have no business being there. I'd rather see bison herds take their place.
As the same time, it's just a bunch of horses, not really bothering anything, doing their horse thing. Let them be.
Turdpublicans are stripping the house bare and are setting it ablaze for the insurance money. 😡
Next it'll be the cats and the dogs.
Yum! Sign me up.
But, but… they’re the “good ones.” /s
Well if we’re going to exploit animals’ bodies by the billions for the pleasure of humans, we might as well throw horses in the mix too, right? While we’re at it, why not cats and dogs?
Puppy mills exist. Oddly haven't heard of cat mills but could be a thing I guess.
In order to provide fish for people to eat, there's a thing called bycatch, which is catching things you don't intend to catch. If there's a cute underwater animal you like, chances are we murder many of them as bycatch.
What else is there, let's see. Male egg laying chickens are born and then immediately blended alive, that's so we can have eggs on our shelves at the price they are. Dairy cows aren't immediately killed but have horrible short lives and are then killed for lack of milk production. That meat is poor quality so we feed it to our pets.
This doesn't sound like a new thing to me, just more of the same cruelty for profits sake.
The intersectionality between capitalism and the exploitation of all living creatures!
What the literal actual fuck is going on America.
Unchecked greed as our shining beacon of guiding light. Most Americans are awful people who think they are good people.
This is basically the “tearing copper out of the walls before you break the lease” stage
Fire sale. Come buy a slice of America®™©
Collapsing empire with too much centralized power.
Republicans are so fucking evil.
The BLM has been selling these for decades. You can get one and they paid you (1k) if you kept it for a year. Then you could drop it at a sale and make more money off it. This isn't just a trump thing. It's been going on for a long while now.
This is heartbreaking. What the hell.
I'd have expected a vote on this plan to result in more neighs than yeas.
Make Americans Glue Again? 😬
Oh oh I’ve seen this one before. Coming to supermarket shelves soon but still paying beef prices.
Ikea meatballs were a long-game ploy to get us hooked and Americans now ache with an insatiable hunger for horse-flesh.
They’re looking forward to fisting horses to forcibly bring more into a world of human-orchestrated suffering.
As documented in "J'Equus...!", a soon-to-be-written open letter examining these alleged abuses.
Oh, I can see the seething internet outrage coming!
As a horse girl I'm going to mourn these animals. He's actively attacking us from within
