Popular Post webfact 78,766 Posted July 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2020 PETA accused of cultural racism and double-standards US-based animal rights protection group PETA has been accused of double standards and cultural racism after it claimed that the use of monkeys in harvesting coconuts in Thailand is cruel, and its call to ban Thai coconut products. In his Facebook post today, Mr. Atthawich Suwanpakdee, secretary-general of the Kla Party, asked about the difference between the use of monkeys to pick coconuts in Thailand and the use of pigs in the search for truffles in Europe. He said that the use of monkeys and pigs are two different cultures and both are respectable, adding that, in Thailand, monkeys and men work together to pick coconuts, with the animals being properly trained at special schools.

Popular Post RandolphGB 1,563 Posted July 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2020 It’s not necessarily the act of monkeys picking coconuts, it’s the conditions they’re kept in and the training methods they endure to be animal slaves in that industry. 12 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post sprq 1,244 Posted July 7, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2020 Pigs enjoy looking for truffles, and they're not abused into doing it. The opposite is true for monkeys collecting coconuts. Wake up, Attawich. 8 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

You are spot on. I have seen in the South how the monkeys are trained from a small age onward's and it doesn't looks very good and sure is cruel but they are now mainly used for tourist attractions. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Peta is full of sh#t and anyone that believes anything they say are idiots, they are just as bad as blm and antifa, they will stoop to any lengths to push their garbage as can be seen from what they have done in the past. At one time they were stealing peoples pets and killing them till they were caught out, they are scum 8 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Popular Post Logosone 6,862 Posted July 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted July 8, 2020 (edited) PETA is holding Waitrose croissants hostage in the UK. Due to this monkey business Waitrose croissants have disappeared from Tops. Are people aware that PETA has backed litigation trying to give a monkey the right to a selfie? That they tried to litigate that whales were being kept as "slaves". These dangerous lunatics like PETA, ANTIFA and all the other organized disturbed have-nots have to be fought at all cost. I will be buying Thai coconut milk in protest. Edited July 8, 2020 by Logosone 4 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites
