Animal rights nut

A term used out of ignorance to refer to people that feel strongly about animal cruelty and want non-human animal to be treated with respect. Some people fail to understand that non-human animals can suffer both physically and emotionally just like humans can and so think it's ridiculous that anyone would care about the suffering of an animal. Animal rights nuts do not have their priorities wrong just because they choose animal rights as their main concern and this does not mean that they care about non-humans more than humans it just means that they can extend there compassion beyond their own species. Whether you want to believe it or not animals suffer a lot for people's trivial gains such as food that you don't need and fur and leather that you do not need. And people who use the term animal rights nut think that it's wrong people care about this and want to stop it.
