Yes, they're trash because they encourage violent, useless ideologies like:
Additionally, PETA is comfortable using racism and sexism to promote their agenda, and I'm not down with that. I believe in thoughtful, holistic, and intersectional advocacy, not "eye for an eye" or "If you cant' beat em, join em" apporaches. I don't use my animal advocacy as a cover for some hidden loathing for humans. I want peace for all animals, and humans, believe it or not, are animals, too.
Anyway, this whole thread is just meatheads bashing on plant-based folks, and I'd rather not get dragged back into this through a quote. Happy to continue the conversation through PM. Thanks.
