Mink's Manifesto 1

All over pure and white, all over plain and bright, we're inborn peace embracers, true tranquility tracers. All the time abstaining from vileness, violence and violation, we've lived our self-disciplined lives generation after generation. Sometimes nightmare befalls more rapidly than downhill snowballs: As different and disparate regions across the world, successively and repeatedly, had been seeing an unusual soaring in the number of masks unfurled as well as faces covered therewith among the human being, we began to be aware of what they were experiencing and, to other animals, what they were likely to bring. However, hardly had we adequately reacted when our fellows in Spain, Netherlands, Denmark, contracted this damnable pestilence from them unfortunately in turn Instantly they got it, they proclaimed their concern: We've noticed your mass contagion. As dutiful zoonosis deniers, we must cull you, the spread speeders, the fatality amplifiers! Blimey! the primary pandemic propagators take their victims as secondary back transmitters. What unreasonable rogues' remarks! What supercilious satanic spits! Where's their normal cognitive code? What serves as or supports their cogitative mode? Why does the crisis catalyze not their introspection, but criminal conative fits? ! We don't know in what mindset human comes up with the word zoonosis. In our dictionary, to be frank, there's no "anthroponosis", no such entry at all, because human being is a kind of animal, too, a common creature nothing more advanced than any other in the eyes of the almighty maker. Inventing zoonosis is simply making groundless discrimination with arrogance and sealing substantiated self-incrimination with ignorance. Over the past centuries, especially the latest several decades, the earth has suffered a lot from human's wanton wallowing in wicked works for worldly wooing, wilful disregard of the nature's law and order and stupid speculation on the planet's future gospel, as manifested by their excessive excavation, immoderate exploitation, feckless ecocide practice and blind pursuit for productivity, at the expense of the regulability of pollutants discharge, the controllability of resources consumption and even the security and the sustainability of their own development pattern. Even after the covid's outbreak, we've seen no remorse on their part. On the contrary, we see their preposterous baloneys, blatant buzzwords and nefarious high-held knives.
