PETA is Angry that Nintendo Turned Cow Milking into a 1-2-Switch Game

[RaikuFA]

I think this issue highlights why social justice advocates should just stay away from video games. Games are games. They are not social/political statements. It is really annoying at best and censorship at worst. When these political groups demand that their opinions on issues should be included in games. If PETA or any other activist groups want to make their own game expressing their views, they are welcome to do so. Putting public pressure and/or any other kind of demands, shaming tactics, or protest against video games is simply misguided.

I... disagree. In a sense. The problem is they shove their message down your throat that within 10 minutes you're going "we get it, I'm moving to a diffrent game". Subelty is where it's at. Though I agree with the second half of it.

Just a few things that PETA is against.
-Animal testing. Including testing that gave us medicine like insulin (one of PETA's top members is diabetic).
-Service animals, like those that help blind people.
-Pets. Like the dog or cat most of us had growing up.
Yeah, PETA can go fuck itself.

Being against animal testing isn't hypocritical if they simply care more about animals than people. Service animals could easily be a necessary evil in their book (which we are supposed to develop away from yada yada). Though being against pets mystifies me too. Maybe something about pet breeds being evil or whatever.

PETA is against everything involving animals outside of their perceived natural environment. They are the easy kind of activism that, if seeing a family being attacked by a tiger, would root for the tiger.
They advocate things like leaving pests alone because "humans are the real pest", or releasing domestic animals to the wild, because, while they wouldn't last more than a day, they would be "happier" killed than living in torture like "being hurried along on their walks".

I agree. It should've been a human milking game.

Pretty sure that would be rated Adult Only. And wouldn't be the same type of milk.

Cow milk doesn't come from dicks?!

I am pretty sure human milk doesn't either...

Nobody tell PETA cats and dogs domesticated by choice.

I also still find it interesting that the group PETA pretends to be like, the ASPCA, is fine with eating meat, they'd just prefer sick cows not be in your cheeseburger

PETA has become a bad parody of themselves by this point. They are the poster children for the rabid, uneducated, SJW stereotype. Their extremism does themselves and other social activists no favors, drowning more sensible ideas with exaggerated rhetoric.

I sent them a letter arguing wolves had a divine plan to become poodles and chihuahuas. Dumb fucks didn't take me seriously.

 

[Neverhoodian]

Oh look, the organization that kills animals and supports eco-terrorism is being hypocritical again. What a surprise.

You may be joking, but the kind of being that would willingly be a Chihuahua fits with the personality of those punt-dogs

 

[RJ 17]

How is PETA still a thing? At this point it has gone past parody and become... I don't know what.

Which is exactly why they have to do stuff like this: to remind people "Hey! We're still a thing! PLEASE DON'T FORGET ABOUT US!!!!"

 

[Tanis]

PETA is run by folks who have actively supported TERRORISTS.

Fuck PETA.

"PETA is Angry"

Could've ended the article right there.

PETA is the biggest waste of human time, effort and money in human history.

After watching Penn and Teller do a bit on PETA and how they "deal with animals", I can't take them seriously when they ***** and moan about something like this.

Both people should do the challenge and milk the cows with direct eye contact with PETA, and not break it.

Show them no weakness.

On that note, link to the episode in question for the uninitiated.

Can I get in on that too?

 

[Tsun Tzu]

Remember Bullshit?

Watch the P.E.T.A. episode, like Toaster says.

Also, fuck them. Fuck them with iron rods.

 

[Kim Marie]

I'm with PETA on this one. People don't talk enough about how the dairy industry rapes female cows and takes their babies away from them.

 

[Scarim Coral]

Aren't they a little late for that?

Also yeah I know they were making a business thanks to my navie friend and her constant PETA video on my FB page (learned to stop getting video off from her).

PETA is the biggest waste of human time, effort and money in human history.

Scientology
Creationism
Solar freaking Roadways
...

You don't have to look far to find stupid wastes of money.

 

[Sonicron]

These murderers and supporters of terrorists again. Ugh. Fuck these morons. Fuck them with baseball bats covered in hot tar and shrapnel. I have no cynical wit left to spend on these disgraceful wastes of skin, just cold, ugly hate.

 

[The Rogue Wolf]

I applaud PETA's push towards realism! I've been saying for YEARS that the Mario games should show the nitty-gritty, filthy world of plumbing. This whole "colorful adventures in the Mushroom Kingdom" thing is insulting to hard-working plumbers everywhere; either show Mario and Luigi trudging through a knee-high pool of raw sewage, or just give it up!

Are they taken over by professional trolls? This is a strange hill to resurrect on. The switch has to be doing well if all other Nintendo games passed peta by before this.
