Neither of those are "the original source." Those are reports on what an animal rights group claims they have evidence of. The original source would be if you linked me to the "700 pages of evidence" which is supposedly going to be submitted to the Dept. of Agriculture.

I don't know the procedural rules around this sort of proceeding, but it strikes me as odd that they go to the press before submitting the paperwork. If they went after submitting the paper work, then you'd presumably be able to look up the 700 pages as a matter of public record and then I'd have egg on my face for not actually having looked into things. But as it stands, my face is firmly without egg.

You know that Musk Elon has a mental condition?

He didn't killed the monkeys by his own hands, so... how is this relevant to this discussion?

Well, In fact the only source of this news, is less than impartial and has an agenda to fill for profit, so... maybe we should hear the other part also first (instead to assume things by default).

Narcissistic egomania?

So what if he does?

But he's also a middle-aged white guy, so surely that's a wash?

Hope that illustrated the silliness of this line of argument.
