FWIW I've come across multiple "PETA is the punchline" memes on Lemmy over the past few days, after having seen none that I remember. Not to jump to conclusions or claim conspiracy but I had already noted it to myself earlier today. I concur, the way some people approach the subject can be very depressing.
Idk probably just a lot of the damage that has been done by anti-PETA propaganda. Those people are probably real people seeing PETA being brought up again and remembering "oh yeah, here's people we can all unanimously shit on!" Because PETA was always a joke even in most progressive circles.
I'm not saying there isn't a conspiracy, but just that it seems more likely that when one person posts about something that a lot of people can have a negative opinion on and they feel comfortable sharing it? They'll take the opportunity to do so.
