Peta and speciesist language, Christian Fundamentalists and Kadabra

 Peta says,

This is literally the same argument ultra-conservative fundamentalist Christian moms made about the Kadabra Pokemon card

"Pokemon promote the occult instead of proper Biblical values and should thus be destroyed."
-Universal Life Church

The problem with both of them is that whether in the form of a word or a pentagram, symbols only mean what they're intended to mean. Nobody who calls another person a dog has anything against dogs.

This post is about my society's relentless confusion over symbols and reality. Other examples like this include:

1. "What are you, Gay?" (and tiny American flags falling on the ground)

2. When a liberal politician uses blackface

3. The upsidedown cross and the confederate flag

4. The capital T True meaning of Christmas

5. Swastikas aren't just for Nazis
6. Swearing Children
