Poll: Peta "Porn Site" - Would this even work?

[NinjaDeathSlap]

Just what kind of drugs were they on when they thought of this idea? Whatever it is I think we should all stay away from that shit.

 

[Ice Car]

This is an eyebrow raiser... Even more so than before. I originally thought this was just an idea and this not real, but I guess not.

What the fuck PETA? As if I haven't said that enough, even more so now, WHAT THE FUCK?! Well, at least there's some more pr0n for internet patrons to look at. This even further makes me view the PETA as a mass trolling operation, and a mass attention whoring operation at the same time.

I have to agree with Penn and Teller. PETA is Bullshit. I loved a recent article I read where PETA denounced a man for killing an elephant. Thing is, he was asked to by a local village. Elephants are known to devastate what little crops some small African villages have. Hunters will go shoot the animals and the the village will keep the elephant to feed the people. Actually, elephants can devastate whole ecosystems if left unchecked. But, hey, a guy killed a 2 ton animal and PETA can't let that happen even to protect people (who mostly eat the crops they grow and very little meat, if any).

New PETA slogan: Cum See Our Meat!

I'm sorry, but I just had to tell you that I laughed out loud at that remark and kept laughing for a good minute. You brought tears to my eyes. TEARS! I laughed so hard. And I'm still laughing. Good show, my friend.

Quick copy-paste of article tadbits for the lazy:

Spoiler

Now, PETA has pulled out all of the stops with a XXX porn site for its next clever marketing endeavor.

"We live in a 24 hour news cycle world and we learn the racy things we do are sometimes the most effective way that we can reach particular individuals," said PETA spokeswoman Lindsay Rajt

"Instead of focusing on anti-fur, the porn site will raise awareness of veganism," said Rajt. "We really want to grab people's attention, get them talking and to question the status quo and ultimately take action, because the best way we can help the greatest number of animals is simply by not eating them."

"PETA's sexy side displayed in galleries and videos will quickly give way to the sinister world of animal mistreatment uncovered by the group?s hidden camera investigations in a very different kind of graphic content."

So how pornographic will PETA go? According to Rajt, it will have enough adult content to qualify for the XXX domain site but also some other graphic images of animals that viewers may not expect to see.

I haven't taken PETA seriously in forever. For all the awareness they brought up about animal cruelty, they are mostly remembered for the ads that feature nude women saying "Don't wear fur" or "go vegan." I agree that it was catchy and people did pay attention to the ad a bit, but I don't think it made that much of a difference.
But this idea of a porn site to raise awareness?
Personally, I think it'll bring publicity but not awareness. I highly doubt that anyone has turned vegan because of these ads and I doubt any of these ads has helped any animals substantially. PETA should stop doing these types of things because they won't be taken seriously. The media doesn't give a damn about the animals, they only care about the 'controversy' having nude women in ads.

Short story: Nobody goes to a porn site to learn about social/environmental/political issues. They go to fap.

But I'm curious Escapees, do you think that any of these ads actually raise awareness?

Peta: they wont stop until animals have more rights than women.

You all know it's true.

Disturbingly, The Onion has developed something weirdly close to your statement, and they somehow did it years before you said it: http://www.theonion.com/video/advocacy-group-decries-petas-inhumane-treatment-of,14359/

I don't know if that's funny or sad.

The Hell?!

 

[enzilewulf]

Safe to say there will be no bondage.

 

[Fade2Moo]

Well at least theyre giving us one kind of meat

 

[MordinSolus]

PETA scares me slightly more every time i hear something about them.

Same here, but it's mainly because I saw the South Park episode with PETA in it. They were called eco-terrorists.

 

[Smokepuddle]

Most of the people who join PETA don't really care that much about saving animals as for the attention because being an activist is the "in" thing right now so causing controversy is their meaning of awreness.

 

[Lunar Templar]

There are words on porn sites? I guess you learn something new every day.

>.> i though the only words on porn sites where for descriptions

but srsly, this is almost a 'japan' lvl wtf, or, theyer trying to troll porn hounds, which could be funny as hell

 

[IWCAS]

So naked people and dead animals?

Sounds like /b/.

In fucking deed.

 

[omega_peaches]

Because I've always wanted to know how to use broccoli as a dildo.

 

[The Grim Ace]

It was bad enough Al Queda started advertising on porn sites, now PETA is going to make their own? I think they're both going to learn no one notices anything on a porn site that isn't porn. So, unless they're going to make as many (painful) vegan double entendres as possible, it's going to fall on deaf(ened by the sound of fapping) ears.

A free safe porn site is a good way to get people to your website. As long as it remained a porn site i don't think people would have a problem using it.

Plus if someone caught you using it you could just say you were checking out the Peta site, and didn't know how you ended up on a porn site.

 

[Iron Lightning]

A porn site with mutilated animals? That's my fetish!

 

[Zhalath]

Nice to see humans being exploited to prevent the exploitation of animals.

 

[Gudrests]
