Comically evil, yet somehow representative of all vegans in the media. They are 100% propped up by the dairy/meat industry.

Peta constantly does these stupid stunts like get mad at animal crossing for including fishing, shit like that. They’re also portrayed as the “typical vegan” throughout the media so anything you bring up veganism many people think of Peta and therefore those “crazy vegoons” stunts. Just a constant laughing stock (“People Eating Tasty Animals”) and as a result nobody takes veganism as a whole seriously either. Sometimes they do things that are kinda good but given their public perception either they’re an op or their leadership is playing directly into the hands of the animal ag industry.

Edit: not to mention their horrendous takes on PBC. You’re not a vegan org if you encourage people to give KFC money because they have vegan chicken substitute

-Every organization says and does dumb shit from time to time, propaganda determines how much of that dumb shit will be used to paint your body of work

-PETA being portrayed as cuckoo vegans is the result of them being the most prominent animal rights organization, if the most prominent one was any other “completely logical” organization they would suffer the same fate

:vegan-liberation:

Welcome to /c/vegan and congratulations on your first steps toward overcoming liberalism and ascending to true leftist moral superiority.

Rules

  • No plant-based diet bullshit or promotion of plant-based capitalism. Veganism isn’t about you, it’s about historical materialist anti-speciesism, anti-racist animalization, and animal liberation. Ethical vegans only.
  • No omni apologists or carnists. Babystepping is for libs, and we’re not here to pat you on the back. Good faith questions and debate about how to fight for animal liberation are allowed.
  • No advocating violence to any species for any reason. If you think this is negotiable GTFO. This includes but is not limited to animal testing, slaughter, and mass euthanasia. Anything that promotes speciesism or the commodification of animals will be removed.
  • Use Content Warnings and NSFW tags for triggering content. Especially if a comrade requests it.
  • Questions about diet belong in c/food. It’s also a great place to share recipes.
  • In all sections of the site, you must follow the Hexbear.net Code of Conduct.
