According to the Animal Agriculture Alliance, Microsoft will soon be making donations to the Humane Society of the United States. Microsoft has launched a program called the “i’m Initiative.”
Through the new program, whenever a Windows Live Messenger user has a conversation using i’m, Microsoft will give a portion of the program’s advertising revenue to one of 10 organizations selected by the user. HSUS is one of the choices, and there is no limit to the amount of money that can be donated.
HSUS, which is not to be confused with the American Humane Society which runs animal shelters, is a radical animal rights group led by vegan Wayne Pacelle. HSUS opposes animal use, and one of its biggest targets is animal agriculture.
The Animal Agriculture Alliance, a broad-based coalition of producers, producer organizations, suppliers, packers-processors and retailers, is urging everyone involved in agriculture to contact Microsoft and its founder Bill Gates to demand that it terminate its financial support for HSUS. One is left to wonder how the Gates Foundation can fight world hunger while simultaneously funding an organization that seeks to end animal agriculture.
