I am convinced that peta is a psyop by the meat industry to trick people into thinking animal rights activists, vegans, and vegetarians are crazy and thus make people dismissive of their arguments.

Or is it a psyop to make us want to fuck lobsters?

Two things can be true lol

I've definitely heard worse conspiracy theories.

Was that not already confirmed? I very vaguely remember hearing about something along those lines from like a whistleblower or something like that.

Idk I could also just be hallucinating. I'm on like 4 hours of sleep 🥴

I'm pretty sure it was confirmed for some environmentalist stuff and oil companies. Like when some "activists" threw soup at a Van Gogh painting, I'm pretty sure that was actually an oil company trying to make environmentalists look stupid. But I am also too lazy to try and search for sources rn so obviously take that with a grain of salt.
