Until there’s a definitive study proving there’s no link between a vegan diet and whatever the hell is wrong with the people at PETA, everyone should keep eating meat just to be safe.
PETA has launched too many ridiculous campaigns to single out any one for comparison, but the organization keeps managing to outdo itself. In a new spot, women recount sexual assaults, but not their own; rather, they’re speaking on behalf of livestock that are artificially inseminated.

That really is terrible. Calves should only be made in the wild, and only when a daddy bull and a mommy heifer love each other very much.
@peta no survivor of sexual assault should have to go through their trauma being compared to an animal's when we've already been dehumanized

@peta this is seriously SO disgusting. How dare you dehumanize victims of sexual abuse to promote your own cultural ideas
— syd ✨ (@literallysyd) November 3, 2016
So @peta believe that animals are capable of informed consent. I'm fucking shaking and feel fucking sick @UnburntWitch

Yeah, the premise sort of falls apart in less time than it takes to watch the spot.
@peta the scariest thing about this is that multiple people approved it. fucking idiots. totally tone deaf.

@peta stop anthropomorphizing, animals don't experience sexuality the way humans do, consent isn't really a thing

@peta So a cow doesn't really get a choice in choosing a mating partner either. Ranchers usually choose the bull for them. So is that rape too?

@peta Holy shit this is horrible. You all should feel bad about equating eating meat to fucking rape.

@peta I couldn't unfollow you fast enough, this was so triggering as a sexual assault survivor. I don't eat meat and I don't support you.

.@peta wow, considering how hard we have to argue that HUMAN WOMEN don't deserve rape, this is not only dehumanizing but sadly ineffective

@peta when you go as low as comparing animal eating to being raped, that's where I draw the line. #FUCKPETA

.@peta This is so unbelievably unacceptable, I can't even begin to put it into words.

@peta DELETE THIS.

@peta don’t you have animals in your care to put down?

Not sure why @peta would choose a sensationalist tactic that cheapens the issue of rape & makes @peta look ridiculous & not worth engaging.

@Obfuskation @peta They're famous for it. This is not the first time they've dehumanized women. They are a foul organization.

.@peta I'm vegetarian but this ad makes me want to take down a cow with my bare hands.

Sorry @peta, but I'm not giving up this privilege of a perfectly cooked T-bone steak. Also, stop minimizing sexual assault. pic.twitter.com/GwoBrkp91E
