PETA Vs. Pokemon
Found on Techdirt on Wednesday, 10 October 2012
PETA has a good premise, anti-cruelty to animals, but the organization seems to like to ensure it won't be relevant by doubling down on the stupid and crazy.
PETA is now coming out against Pokemon, claiming that the game franchise teaches children to see real world animals as objects that should fight one another for our amusement.
Anyone with half a brain knows that there is zero reason to correlate cartoonish animal universes like Pokemon to real-world cruelty.
PETA is a total joke. A bad one even. An organisation which claims to protect animals, but kills most of the animals which is given into their care. If you really like animals, stay away from the PETA.
