Speciesism

Sexism. Racism. Now speciesism. It seems humans are the most biased animals on the face of this earth.

Except not.

Animal rights activists use this term to try and pretend that they alone are pure, unbiased and all-caring, when in fact they are the ones shunning their own species for another who, quite frankly, doesn't give a flying fuck.

Speciesism is defined as "Human intolerance or discrimination on the basis of species, especially as manifested by cruelty to or exploitation of animals. " www.all-creatures.org/articles/act-gloss.html
Here's the big "oops"-ALL animals are speciesist. There isn't an animal on the face of the earth that won't put his own species above and before another. It doesn't happen that way, sorry. Hell, animals are even intolerant of members of their own species who are a different color (sound familiar?). Ever wonder why albinos don't often survive, even in a herd? It's because their loving, caring, unbiased herd kicked his white ass out because he stuck out.

So why aren't we "speciesist"? We are. It's hardwired into our brain that OUR species must survive, at the expense of others. Horses do it. Wolves do it. Deer do it. Hell, even fish do it. It's not speciesist to put your own species above others, it's natural. If anything, we are the most unspeciesist animals on the face of this earth. We have members of our own species who care about other species, often more than their own, and increasingly often at the expense of their own.
