A Delaware animal shelter is working to find new homes for thousands of chicks that were left abandoned in a U.S. Postal Service truck for three days.
Delaware’s Department of Agriculture said it received a call earlier this month from USPS saying the Postal Service had an “undeliverable box of baby birds.” About 12,000 chicks had been shipped from the Pennsylvania-based Freedom Ranger Hatchery to farms across the country.
State agricultural officials say that when they found the chicks at a USPS distribution center in Delaware, around 4,000 were dead.
You’re definitely using the word genocide incorrectly here. A genocide would imply that the other commenter wants us to kill all farm animals right now, when in reality what they’re saying is that they want us to stop artificially breeding them, meaning not creating new life. As for the animals that already exist, yeah ideally we’d find some way to help them live their lives out, but realistically this change isn’t gonna happen in one day, it’s gonna take years, and as we reduce artificial insemination these animals will stop existing and so this issue of having all of these animals around won’t be real.
This is the equivalent of using a condom, not the equivalent of shooting someone in the face.
If humans had masters and they forced us to use condoms to prevent more of us, I’m pretty sure this checks out some definition of genocide
EDIT: Russia fully takes over Ukraine and implements a law where you can no longer make children. Is this a genocide?
this is a plan that would lead eventually to the total destruction of the species. it’s genocide
