Notorious vegan activist Tash Peterson goes on bizarre rant demanding people stop objectifying animals by referring to them as 'it'




Tash has the charm of youth but she doesn't have much of a figure.  May I be so uncharitable as to suggest that her activism is for her a way of getting the attention she would otherwise lack?


A notorious vegan activist and OnlyFans star has pleaded with Australians to stop devaluing and objectifying animals by referring to them as 'it' .

Animals rights activist Tash Peterson sparked a divided reaction online when she addressed the topic in a 10 minute Facebook video filmed with partner Jack Higgs earlier this week.

She believes it's wrong to refer to an animal as 'it'.

'There's a huge difference of how we address human animals and non human animals and at the end of the day, we're forgetting we're all animals and sentient beings,' she explained.

Ms Peterson described the use of degrading language and euphemisms to describe animals as anthropocentric.

'I've even heard it with people and their dogs and they know their dog's gender but they're still saying it,' she said.

'It's just not a word to be using for an individual, it's objectifying them and it's devaluing them. They're no different to us morally.'

'You can say he/she, they/them, or just even saying the dog or the bird, at least appreciate they're a living being.'

Ms Peterson says she even hears a lot of fellow vegans and animal activists referring to animals as 'it', which she described as concerning and inspired her to make the video.

'It's ingrained in us. It's no one's fault, we're taught from the moment we start school that if it's a non human animal, you say 'it',' she explained

When an actual animal complains to me that it feels objectified by the pronouns I choose to use for it, I will then check myself in to the nearest asylum for treatment of my psychological disorder that makes me think animals understand human speech AND have the ability to utter it coherently.

Until then - nope.
