Monarching
By Heidi Coon

Poison the rat!
Eek! A spider! [splat]
Speciesism…? What’s that?
Hang on, I’m giving some tuna to my cat.
So pissed, I spilt milk on my leather purse
OMFG! Yulin is PERVERSE!
They kill dogs for their skin? That’s living in reverse!
Oh, shut the fuck up with your nonsensical vegan verse.
[nom nom] I love mustard on my hotdog…
…ya know me, I always fight for an underdog
Hey! Not ALL farmers are mean….[supping eggnog]
OMG! You ate two Big Macs?! You’re such a hog!
Awwww, baby lambs are totes cute!
…whaddaya mean, …that’s an UGG boot…
You animal activists sure are a hoot!
Um, I asked how to get a burger. Why did you answer ‘pollute’?
Boo! Hiss! We must stop U.S. horse slaughter!
We’re gonna make such atrocity stop, come hell or high water!
Lol, that crazy vegan called a girl calf a cows ‘daughter’!
…yes, I’d like to order a steak, mac & cheese, & a tonic water.
Hey!
I’m against animal cruelty, too, dumb vegan! But, humans are carnivores!
Responses from carnivores…
No logic or
Principled core.
