If Vegans Cared about Plants

This is a PETAesque article reflecting how PETA framing works- in other words, how PETA uses words to manipulate how people see things.

The following is how a plants rights activist might describe plant treatment in today’s world using PETA’s belief framing:

Machines are routinely used to literally CUT OFF the arms and fingers of plants ..

5. Plant Hormones, You’re eating plant Ovaries

Newsflash, Apples are plant OVARies and not meant to be eaten by humans. You see because fruits are female sex organs they are LOADED with HORMONES. It’s meant ONLY as food for baby plants.. DON’T eat baby plant growth food.

6. Plants are full of Infections and Bacteria

Many plants today suffer from Bacterial, Viral, and Fungal INFECTIONS because of improper care.. many of the plants we eat today are loaded with BILLIONS of bacteria cells. A teaspoon of soil generally contains between 100 million and 1 billion bacteria. And plants are forced to grow in these conditions. I wouldn’t eat plant infections, yuck.

These may seem over the top, but from a dairy farmer’s perspective, these PETA frames are very hurtful- they’re hurtful because they try to imply that dairy farmers don’t care about animals, which is the opposite of what I spend every day doing, trying to make the farm a better place for the animals.

Most dairy farmers do have the best interest of the cows in mind because happy cows give the most milk. It is some sort of karmic, universal law that protects animals. If you treat others well, they treat you well. Dairy farmers aren’t evil murderers or torturers, just people like everyone else.
