Vegans Melt Down Over Aubrey Plaza's Silly "Got Milk" Ad

Aubrey Plaza did an ad for Big Milk.

The ad made the point that milk means cow's milk. It poked light fun at the idea of making milk from plant material -- you know, oat milk, almond milk, all the various not-milks.

It's amusing enough:

Well, you can't upset the apple-cart of mentally-ill leftists with an Attack Hobby (as veganism is, it's an Attack Hobby) without expecting a lot of hatred.

@evilhag #AubreyPlaza production company is perfect name for her now after this brutal MILK campaign...AWFUL pivot from a flourishing career. @peta
Not a great look #AubreyPlaza

Peta is doing a big push against cow milk. I don't know if they started that after this ad, or they were already going hard against cow milk.

They seem to have zero sense of priority or proportion:

Shrimp? Sea roaches are what we have to worry about now, Peta?

Keep tilting at windmills, Peta.

PETA rewrites the Bible with the help of ChatGPT to make the Book of Genesis 'vegan' friendly In PETA's AI-generated, vegan version of the Bible, animals are referred to as 'beings' rather than 'beasts' and plants are used for clothing instead of animal skins

PETA has given the Bible's Book of Genesis a "vegan" makeover, using ChatGPT to recreate the story and "send a can't-be-missed animal rights message filled with vegan teachings."

In PETA's vegan version of the Bible, animals are referred to as "beings" rather than "beasts" or "creatures" and plants like hemp and bamboo are used for clothing instead of animal skins because "no one with any fashion or moral sense would wear animal skins in the 21st century."

Gratuitously alienating potential converts to your cause by trivializing their religion is extremely counter-productive, but Peta always has been an organization with the mentality of 13-year-old Goth mean girls. They're not in this to make change, they're in it to make adults uncomfortable.
