PETA To Launch Pornography Website
The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals are planning on launching an adult oriented website to help protect animals through a mix of animal suffering footage and porn. I'm not sure how mixing the two will win hearts, minds, or naughty bits, but Lindsay Rajt, PETA's associate director of campaigns, seems to think it's a good idea. She says, "We're hoping to reach a whole new audience of people, some of whom will be shocked by graphic images that maybe they didn't anticipate seeing when they went to the PETA triple-X site."
Fuck it, we're going full-on batshit.
SJW: Someone who has run out of real oppression, and has to fake it.
So PETA is creating /b in other words.
...you know that it isn't. What an absurdly idiotic joke. Then again, as an above poster said, they're probably going to get an influx of /b/tards that will just fap even harder at this stuff. I hope they leave comments open. They're going to get the opposite response they were hoping for.
So they're implementing Encyclopedia Dramatica?
"I use a Mac because I'm just better than you are."
So they're training people to beat off to pictures of animal suffering?
PETAPORN.COM: Where it's OK to beat your meat.
Nothing like humiliating women for the ethical treatment of animals.
And get that Kitty porn off my screen, damnit.

In the 80s, when we were teens sneaking copies of Hustler away from older brothers or swapping with neighbors I remember seeing several issues with both porn and horrible war footage.
Flynt was not afraid to publish articles showing exactly what kind of destruction the US was, or had been, wreaking overseas. And he showed the cost it had on the soldiers as well.
The nudity and sex were not the obscenity. The murder of civilians and the treatment of those who had signed up to serve the country was the real obscenity.
So halfway through the sex scene, right when you're about to cum, it will switch to cows being slaughtered?
"We're hoping to reach a whole new audience of people, some of whom will be shocked by graphic images that maybe they didn't anticipate seeing when they went to the PETA triple-X site."
Yeah, 'cuz nobody would expect that from PETA.
Make me aerodynamic in the evening air
Of course this is ridiculously idiotic. That's just what they're going for. Say something batshit insane that'll provoke media coverage and public reaction to show people that PETA still exists and believes in ending the suffering of animals or whatever. They have no intention of actually doing this, it's just another cynical attention-grabbing statement to remind people about PETA.
Nothing to see here, just Slashdot getting trolled.
Spelling mistakes, grammatical errors, and stupid comments are intentional.
4chan has already evolved this ( randomly, ergo /b/ ) and the evolutionary outcome was people who can only fap to shocking images of puppies having their heads cutoff juxtaposed with teen webcams or pornographic images of my little ponies.....
I don't think Rule 34 should ever be a marketing campaign.
Why PETA thinks this is a good outcome, I don't know.

What they're planning, from the article:
Visitors to the X-rated site will initially be presented with pornographic content as well as images from PETA's salacious ads and campaigns, Rajt said. Those images will be followed by pictures and video shot undercover of the mistreatment of animals. The site will also include links to vegetarian and vegan – using no animal products – starter kits as well as recipes.
Either way, I don't see how this works out well for their message. How about online streaming of tv shows that hulu wont stream for free - supplemented with peta ads? Or, a paypal service - watch 15 minutes of peta ads, take a quiz on their policies, pass, and get $5? The porn angle is just too strange.

After all, PETA is one of the most prolific killers of animals in the country.
First off, when it comes to art at Burning Man, pretty much anything goes. However, PETA's "art" consisted of a film loop of pigs being beaten to death, shown on a 15-foot screen, complete with sound. They placed this on the Esplanade, Burning Man's "main street." My camp was next door, and while we didn't actually do any of the following pranks, thinking them up was great fun.
Our first prank was to go over with a plate of veal chops:
Us: "Hi, guys. We're from BBQ camp, next door, and ... we're full. Would you like some veal chops? We're just going to throw them out."
Our next prank:
Us: "Hi, guys. We're so glad that you've taken the first step toward a sustainable planet by becoming vegan. But we hope that you'll take the next ethical step like we have. We're from Fruitarian camp, next door, and we would like to invite you to join us in embracing a fruitarian lifestyle, and avoid all but fruit that falls naturally from the tree."
PETA: "If you guys are all fruitarians, how come you're all so fat?"
Me: "Well, I can only speak for myself, but I've been a fruitarian now for a month, and already I've lost over 50 pounds. I feel great, and expect to be at my goal weight in just 10 more days."
For our final prank, we planned to go masturbate in front of their pig-killing video:
Us: "uhhh. Uhhhh. UUHHHH, Oh Yes!"
PETA: "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU PEOPLE DOING?"
Us: "Oh, hey, sorry. We're from Bestiality Camp, next door. We were just enjoying the snuff films you guys are showing."
I've no doubt there are some sick, twisted people out there who are gonna get off on the animal cruelty pics. :(
I do not fail; I succeed at finding out what does not work.
I had to look into it, because it seemed to be a bit of a stretch, even for PETA. But damned if you weren't correct about that. Here's one of the links for folks interested. http://www.abolitionistapproach.com/eight-animals/
Not only that but they actively fund domestic terrorists. So no big deal in their books. After all, they believe animals have more intrinsic value than you, or me, or that baby of yours, mine, or anyone elses that could be saved using a vaccine. Or stem cell treatment, or heart valve replacement or hell even insulin.
Om, nomnomnom...
Well, PETA has always been more about getting laid then actually helping animals.. so this fits their pattern quite nicely.
They don't love animals, they just hate people.
You just have to think of it as a challenge.
My -1 Troll is actually a +1 funny. And my -1 flame is actually a +1 insightfull.
how even blowing up a facility in order to free animals being tested on counts as Terrorism(tm) if you're not targeting people.
Terrorism doesn't have to target people by direct violence. So long as the intent is to force others into accepting some political or ideological point through fear (whether of violence against them, or destruction against their property), and it is practiced systematically, it is terrorism.
They want to shock people.
On the internet.
With graphic images.
On a porn site.
Weeeeeelll... its good to have goals I guess. Good luck with that one.
