Nothing on their website. Nothing from an engine search. It's just this particular anti woke, hard right, trash merchant media group, has been caught out lying before.

You don't search well, do you? You must be an AI creature, they only know what they are programmed to know. Wink

Quote:

PETA is asking the Brisbane Broncos to retire Buck and move away from imagery such as bucking broncos, which glorifies rodeos.

The team could even adopt the name the “Brisbane Boomerangs” after the impressive Aboriginal weapon — a nod to the team’s fostering of Indigenous talent and commitment to equality.

So PETA is so worried about the Broncos logo glorifying the taming of horses that they want the Broncos to switch their logo to a boomerang.

LOL

Someone should tell them what a boomerang is for. This is like suggesting we switch the logo to clubbing baby seals or something.

People who can't distinguish between etymology and entomology bug me in ways I cannot put into words.
