To discriminate based on sex
is sexism;
To discriminate based on race
is racism.
Therefore, to discriminate based on species
is speciesism.
But to discriminate based on religion
should then be religionism,
and to discriminate based on hair-color,
hair-colorism.
None-sense of course,
and awfully-sounding discourse.
Let speciesism hence
be racism
to stand for an illegitimate preference
to benefit the human race
to the detriment of the animal-kingdom.
It’s a disgrace.
