>>13280498>PETA is retarded on principal the principle isn't that bad, I think "you shouldn't torture animals for fun" is not an insane position to have
but PETA as organization are completely unhinged and go ad-absurdum
I don't know if that's retarded or genius move for them
I mean imagine you're selling something worth $100 and sell it for exactly that, people will haggle and you will be forced to sell it for $80
now if you asked for $200 in the first place, people would haggle you down to $150 and would be patting themselves how they managed to rip you off by $50
if they say "tardigrade are animals that need protection", people will generally gravitate somewhere between protecting no animals whatsoever like chinamen and protecting everything down to fucking tardigrades and protozoans
they might actually be happy to compromise on vertebrae, but know they can't say that because that's haggling too low
then again, I'm fairly certain I'm reading too much into it and they are all in fact crazy ass lunatics
