As someone not following these things closely, that's pretty much all I know about PETA: animal torture, killing while saying it's for their own good

Kind of like a weird sect

I generally support veganism, vegetarianism, pescatarianism, flexatarianism, and just broadly encouraging people to decrease their meat consumption and make better choices about their dietary animal products. Factory farming conditions being only one of many important reasons I do so.

In my opinion, PETA has single handedly done more to impede constructive conversations about the above than any other organization I can think of. If I didn't know better, I would assume it was formed by strategists for the meat industry.

Peta is the Autism Speaks of its field. And vicee versa.

you skipped over the part where PETA was infiltrated by a spy ring paid for by Barnum & Bailey and run by the former third highest ranking member of the CIA (who had been convicted of lying to Congress), using their operatives to, among other things, do and encourage behaviors that make the organization look extreme. this allowed it to be taken over by unstable fanatics and successfully destroyed its reputation

If "Pissing off normies," was your only decision making tool

Just Stop Oil are another example of a group causing more problems for their cause than they solve.

I'd love to upvote this one. If there's one with the spelling fixed, let me know?

You are falling for animal industry propaganda against PETA
