RSPCA Respect Video

Tom respects all animals that respect him.
Yes, he has an aversion to sharks, crocodiles and poisonous snakes but if they stay in their own back yard then fine. Tom will respect them at a distance.
The new RSPCA video, link above, is causing a stir amongst some farmers. Is the RSPCA going woke? What's going on here guys? It's all over the news.... |

Ooooh Tom this is quite controversial! Many things is agreed with and many I really don't ! In particular how they rspca are portraying farming ! It's not all like this and I think they are doing farmers a massive fucking disservice! Any animal cruelty is abhorrent I agree. But the RSPCA are one step away from joining the animal murderers that is Peta! Terrible terrible advert for so many reasons ! |

Very catchy and the message of respect for all animals is not something I would see anyone disagreeing with.
I did notice an image used in it was misplaced, probably why they used an animation to depict it because they wouldn’t be able to find it any more, banned in this country 15 years ago. |

The Sow ?
Seriously I totally appreciate they message they are trying to convey but they can't even get their facts right. Just more fuel for the anti farming brigade ! |

I can see what they were trying portray. But they've gone about it wrongly, yes I disagree with puppy farms and caged hens etc. And yes there are different better ways of doing things. But not being factually correct just causes arguments and the actual message they wanted to give out, is lost. |

Getting their facts wrong for a start. A very unfair portrayal of farming in general. The domestic animal stuff is appallingly accurate unfortunately. This is also the charity that thinks it's a great idea to release urban foxes into the countryside. That's creatures have no idea how to hunt having always lived out of bins etc. The amount who starve to death or who venture onto farmland and get shot anyway. |

Sows aren't kept in cages and haven't been for the last 15 years but if your a misinformed townie with no idea you'd possibly be inclined to think it still happens. This is unfair. Dairy herds do exist but they are happy to miss out the fact that very few factory farms exist in the UK. There are incredibly high welfare standards already in place to protect said cows and that includes beef cattle.
I hate battery farms and totally agree they should be abolished, but the poor old free range hen at the big farms only gets 18 months before it gets the chop or is rescued by really hardworking groups and rehomed.

They should probably have also added that not everybody starves their dogs. Most people don't shoot foxes. Some people don't eat lobsters etc. etc. etc.
(Mostly for the benefit of the misinformed townies cos in the countryside we know so much more) |

I think a lot of people who live in rural and farming communities certainly have a better grasp of what's true in regard to farming practices at least. |

Hope you're ok? Seems odd to leave mid conversation |

At the end of the day they are using images that they believe will have the most impact on getting people to donate to them, that is what the whole video is, it’s a promotional video, with the image of someone popping some coins into the RSPCA collection tin, seemlessly shoehorned in.
In those terms it’s a very good job.
The inaccuracies of some of the imagery they portray obviously doesn’t bother them and the wider public will not realise they are there and believe the images to be accurate.
The annoying part for me, is that there are enough legitimate things they could have used as imagery without using things that are inaccurate, indeed wilfully misleading.
Getting money in their coffers seems to outweigh any desire for integrity, which is a shame because as a nation I think we are one of the most animal welfare friendly bunch there is, both domestically and commercially. |
