    I’m a full-time meat eater, but I respect vegans who don’t go around minding people’s businesses, which is exactly what peta does.

      I think that’s the problem. So many people are unaware of the difference between vegans, militant vegans, and peta-assholes. The second and third are the hardest to differentiate (and they are different)

      When you can someone to start ranting about depopulation intervention and driving food species to extinction, then you found the PETA (also the PITA)

      All activism could be called “minding people’s business”. That’s not really a fair criticism.
