A high engineering pupil in China was reportedly denied admission to a prestigious post-grad program after he allegedly admitted to posting a video of himself forcing a cat right into a bucket of water, then holding the cat’s head underneath water to drown, in accordance with University World News.
This disturbing incident sheds gentle on the darkish and vile ring of cat torture teams which proceed to brutally maim and kill cats for “fun” on-line — and which Lady Freethinker continues to work to cease. The teams have posted movies to Telegram and different platforms exhibiting cats boiled alive, burned, electrocuted, and placed in blenders or meat grinders, in accordance with witnesses and data reviewed by Lady Freethinker.
This isn’t the primary time a college pupil has been linked to cat torture teams on-line. Now, some universities have began denying admissions and expelling college students who partake in cat torture movies.
The Chinese Ministry of Education’s National Master’s Degree Graduate Enrollment Work particularly states that “those who fail the ideological and moral character assessment shall not be admitted,” as reported by ECNS Wire.
Two high universities denied the aforementioned engineering pupil admission to their graduate applications regardless of being a top-scoring pupil, though neither faculty explicitly stated the scholar was denied admission on account of his alleged historical past of animal abuse.
Just a number of weeks previous to this information story, one other Chinese college pupil was expelled over movies which reportedly confirmed him punching, kicking, and beating a cat with a hanger, then throwing the crying cat towards his dormitory wall, in accordance with Global Times. Prior to that incident, one other college pupil was expelled for allegedly filming a cat being lit on fireplace, in accordance with Sixth Tone. Yet one other case concerned a college pupil who reportedly tortured 80 stray cats for money.
It shouldn’t be as much as China’s faculties to dissuade people from committing acts of violence towards animals.
China doesn’t at the moment have any nation-wide legal guidelines towards cat torture. It’s time for that to alter.
Lady Freethinker is looking for Chinese legislators to cross nationwide anti-animal cruelty legal guidelines that will create penalties for many who maim and kill cats and different animals.
On May 22, LFT will host a protest in Washington D.C. — dropping off 1000’s of signatures on the Chinese Embassy and imploring the ambassador to make use of his affect to cease cats from being tortured and killed on-line for revenue, “entertainment,” or every other motive.
Raise your voice for cats in China and signal our petition right this moment urging the Ambassador of China to push for laws to lastly cease cat torture in China.
