If animals could talk, they'd probably ask PETA to kindly mind its own business.
Hundreds of thousand of cows, pigs and chickens are slaughtered in American factory farms every day (a 'moral outrage' that one might expect would occupy more of PETA's messaging budget), the organization - which has hundreds of celebrity members (not unlike the Church of Scientology) - has instead devoted its latest PR campaign to combating 'speciesism'. That's right: PETA is trying to stop people from being 'racist' against chickens.
In a hilarious chart published by PETA this week (the graphic has since gone viral, which, now that we think about it, may have been the point), PETA suggested a few handy 'PC' phrases that people can use to combat 'speciesism' by replacing a few common idioms with phrases that are more 'animal friendly.'
For example: Instead of saying 'kill two birds with one stone', people should instead say 'feed two birds with one scone'. Or in place of the phrase 'beat a dead horse', PETA recommends saying 'feed a fed horse.'
