PETA (which does not stand for “People Eating Tasty Animals”), a leftist political organization masquerading as a benevolent animal rights organization, asked their Twitter audience one of the stupidest questions ever asked on social media Wednesday. And it wasn’t just the question that was dumb, but the ignorance of thinking that they weren’t going to be blasted is just amazing.
PETA, which is now using a homosexual-looking flag as their logo (what that has to do with animal rights is curious), and has as their Twitter header photo two pigs, asked people to justify their eating of Bacon (Yes, it deserves to be capitalized) the most delicious food giving to humans as an obvious gift from God.
Present your best argument for eating bacon.

PETA soon immediately got hit with responses that they had to see coming — or perhaps didn’t. But they really should have seen this train wreck:
Oh Great, PETA is protesting bacon, I've got a feeling that they are going to lose this one.

Here’s a rational response:

Great point here. Why don’t they attack SPAM first, or something?

And like most phony movements from the Left, they’re typically filled with a bacon-load of hypocrisy:
because PETA could make faux real-meat bacon to replace our pork bacon using the corpses of the enormous number of dogs and cats they kill?

Hey PETA..Instead of going after bacon eaters, how's about getting to Thailand & stop them inhumanly force-feeding DOGS & eating THEM!

Because I want to and it tastes good…
Your turn. Present your best argument for this…https://t.co/1A7W5xs7sM

PETA’s stunt went so poorly for them that even the left-wing Huffington Post noted their epic fail:

And what would a bacon conversation be without a Ron Swanson GIF:

And then there is just plain old facts and logic:
Bacon is so delicious they wrap other foods in bacon to make them taste better

Have you ever had Pancakes and Crispy Bacon with maple syrup? Well shut up

Okay, let’s just stick it in their face:
Hey, @peta – BACON. 🥓 pic.twitter.com/BhZanBmdJW

Combined with a cow is even better!

Others felt PETA’s online campaign was triggering their hunger for…bacon:

And then there are these home runs. Pro-life for pigs but not humans? Wait, what?
The greatest hypocrisy of all:
I like how every vegan out there prolly is for abortion but not for bacon.

Please share with us ur thoughts on the ethics of abortion, then I'll get back to you on bacon.
— Atlas the Titan (@atlas_thetitan) June 29, 2017
I'll stop eating bacon when you admit abortion is murder.
