Iron, I get a kick out of your chronology..I own a house full of animals,looks like a birth to death relationship for me..few horses but mostly dogs and cats. I support animal testing. I lost balance when you used Dr. Bronners products to reinforce your point,as a longtime( lifelong) user I cried tears in between gasps of laughter. Dr. Bronners in dispensed in a variety of sizes, given management changes over the decades, the label on each size bottle contains different messages and product use suggestions. I use peppermint. I have used it to brush my teeth,wash clothes,insect repellent, disinfect dishes and utensils. My primary use is bathing during camping trips..get body and hair wet, lather up..and a cool tingling sensation and no matter how cold the water you are forced to get the soap off.. Feather, Snake,Colorado and Mississippi are a few that I have jumped into to work in combo with Dr.Bronners brand of clean. The old label included ratios of soap to water for enemas,douche and birth control..The products have not always included an animal testing free designation..and for those of us participating in races in the South western US..Paul Mitchell sponsored bike races of all varieties..beach volleyball..OTL tournament here in San Diego..those products additionally were not originally marketed as free from animal testing.
Peta, has had a number of confusing actions were it's supporters threw paint on people,in their eyes,mouth and nose,ears for the offense of wearing animal fur, only to find out later the person assaulted w paint was wearing faux fur..the ooops, or apologies not really there. I hardly s see the objectives of Peta..or Peta like organizations having much to say as a pandemic swept the country and the world.
I ate chicken,fish,oysters and beef this week..I would be able to make eye contact with everything I have eaten..I could share a gaze w their families as I consumed them.
I think to have a Covid animal testing argument could have value,now,here..no. Any discussion about a few,or one specific doctor's views or practice on animal testing as a byproduct of Covid views is simply ridiculous. To do some kind of logical causal link between Vivid-Fauci-animal testing is silly..first making the dots..then trying to connect them..
millions worldwide have died..more than three quarters of a million in the United States alone. 1100+ per day.
I certainly hope that animal testing can be discontinued completely,that's a worthy goal..but to try and associate soap or shampoo,body wash w lifesaving emergency medication, emergency life saving technique is plain crazy..
