We know words matter, but this time The People For Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) may have left more people scratching their heads with a new twist on "speciesism".

This week PETA took to Twitter to let people know the harmful effects of language and how important it is to chose your words carefully, even if those possibly offended have no idea what you are talking about.

In an attempt to have people be more mindful of harming animals, PETA would like us to reword idioms to more animal friendly words.




PETA

They went on to explain further why they picked this particular battle.

Unfortunately, the explanation really only made things worse.













Some folks saw the humor in the situation.





Others appreciate the time it must have taken to come up with the new idioms.

MAGA Christians Rage After Being Asked Why They're Against Free School Lunches

With Christianity so closely tied to Republican President Donald Trump, the GOP, and Trump's MAGA movement, a person might assume a government controlled by MAGA Republicans would try to enact legislation based on the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Things like feeding the hungry, housing the unhoused, caring for the sick and the poor, welcoming the immigrant, and loving their neighbors. But MAGA is a manifestation of White supremacy and Christian nationalism, so MAGA Republicans at all levels of government have embraced the greed of the Evangelical Christian "prosperity gospel" that glorifies the rich and vilifies the poor.
