PETA sucks. They're just frivolous, cling onto anything relevant at the moment just to be mentioned in the media, have numerous fat shaming campaigns (this fat vegan chick is not amused) and as you say, kill healthy companion animals (aside from killing that poor dog who actually DID have a family, they trap and kill healthy feral cats. Feral cats are fine without human intervention; they find shelter, they find food (rodents and birds), they don't need human companionship the thrive.
There are good, reasonable, non-hypocritical groups out there, but like most extremists they make the most noise and ruin it for everyone else.
Like we've said though, it's more of a political group than a fandom.
And for the record, I'm not going "Five Nights at Fozzie's," that's too obvious.
What bugs me about any fandom is when they come up with completely out of place OC's, then submit human/anime versions of the characters - and by "anime" I mean looking exactly like what a fifty year old that saw a picture of that green haired Vocaloid chick on someone's t-shirt... I mean, for the love of Pete, someone do something in Fujio Akatsuka style for once. Well, they have these OC's drawn completely
not resembling the thing they were associated with and fill up DA groups with it so you get hundreds of
not the series you're looking for with characters that had little to do with the series to begin with
except for the fact they were initially drawn to look like it. And since they no longer are, what's the point?
That's why I left an Ed, Edd, n' Eddy group. The artwork worshiping the nasty brother of Eddy's from the movie was okay (disturbing, though), but then I kept seeing anime style vampire hunters who are so far removed from what EEE is all about, and it looked like they were just accepting submissions of random non-EEE things. Now, there are great OC's and fan fics and fan arts out there... but vampire hunters in EEE make about as much sense as a non-ironic, dark and brooding bounty hunter in a Homestar runner cartoon.
