TW: this is what BTS is actively promoting Reveal hidden contents Don't get me wrong, I'm all on board for putting an end to the inhumane practices that populate the food industry. It's deplorable. But I really gotta tell you that PETA is not an organization you need to in any way shape form or fashion support. They are not who they say they are. They are in fact responsible for more euthanizations of completely healthy animals in their shelters than most animal shelters by quite a large margin. In 2016 alone, 71.9% of all cats taken in by PETA were killed under their watch. They are noted sexists and have put pregnant women in cages and compared them to cows all for the sake of media coverage. They also frequently objectify women in their ads. The group claims that dairy products cause Autism (there is little to no science to back that up) and have gone so far as to reinforce negative stereotypes about Autism specifically to support their messaging on this. PETA has a history of comparing animal suffrage to victims of rape and even went so far as to actually publish testimonials from actual rape victims under the umbrella of saying "this is what animals in the industry feel like." And while yes they suffer tremendously, to trivialize rape and use it as a gimmick to sell their point, directly using rape survivors for promotional purposes, is disgusting. PETA has a long history of fat shaming, anti-ssemitic holocaust analogies, highly questionable remarks regarding slavery, have openly declared that seeing eye dogs are unimportant and should not be a practice (their founder even forcibly stole a guide dog from it's blind owner). Oh, and they have supported a white supremacist on multiple occasions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're the epitome of eye roll activism, they must realise that all they do is piss people off and actively push people away from their cause.

No I'm not saying the point is invalid, but I am saying that I'm not really willing to give them an inch either.
