Facepalm For PETA

PETA does some great work but wow can they make themselves look like idiots as well. 
The latest campaign is to remove 'speciesism from the conversations in order to promote social justice' and give examples of this language including to replace 'kill two birds with one stone' with 'Feed two birds with one scone' and 'Beat a dead horse' with 'Feed a fed horse'.
If that isn't silly enough, they then compared 'speciesism' to racist or homophobic language saying: 'Just as it became unacceptable to use racist, homophobic, or ableist language, phrases that trivialise cruelty to animals will vanish as more people begin to appreciate animals for who they are'.
No facepalm would be hard enough but people won't start saying 'Bringing home the bagels' instead of bacon and 'take a flower by the thorns' instead of a bull by the horns but i guess people are talking about it so maybe whatever genius at PETA who came up with it has done their job. 
I support PETA in most things but campaigns like this just make them a laughing stock, far better they stick to throwing flour over fur wearers and sabotaging hunts which is their forte.
