I'm vegan for a decade now and for a while I felt like I have to support peta because they fight for the right cause. But seeing all the shit they publish, I'm not that sure anymore

    Do you have examples? I've been under the impression that they're the good guys in most cases

    You can just look at this post and see how they try to scare people into not drinking cows milk through fear of autism, which is some ablest bullshit. This is literally no better than anti-vax rhetoric.

    I mean, not trying to defend this as this is pretty bad, but I guess it gets people talking and thinking about their consumption of animal products?

    I remember a cat adaptation campaign with the slogan "Grab them by the pussy" right after Trump said it (or when it came out) which is tasteless at best

    It is pretty tasteless, I'll give you that. But it's meant to be provocative, I think, and shocking, so the slogan did accomplish its goal.

    Yes, they accomplish their goals, but (to come back to my first comment) is it really the right cause or does it alienate people?
