For real I don’t really understand all the hate PETA gets. I think the most you can accuse them of is not being strategic in their messaging, and doing some pretty dumb stunts over the years. Everyone I’ve ever met who’s involved with PETA has seemed like genuinely a good person who’s trying to help animals.
Of course there’s also the “PETA kills pets” stuff, but if you do one google search you’ll see this is astroturfed lies/exaggerations from the meat industry, so I don’t pay that any mind.
