You could apply that same argument to every organization doing good just because it's not "enough good." "I mean come on, people want to clothe the homeless? There's starving children out there! Why don't they have their get their priorities straight?" You don't think that's a stupid thing to say?

I target PETA specifically just because it's animals, and i can't relate.
I'm not going to argue against anyone against pollution, or deforestation. Something that serves the common good, and i know peta is involved partly in things like this.
But just look at Lucifer's example. Its literally that some of them value animal life OVER human, and that is what i can't understand.
It's also unfortunate that PETA seems to get a lot more celebrity and mass media promotion then those other organizations who are just "shooting videos of Africans"
