PETA’s youth-focused division, PETA2, is once again proving that the animal rights group can’t resist injecting radical leftist politics into its activism, even when targeting impressionable youth.
On Tuesday, the youth and teen outreach arm posted images to Instagram under the caption, “drop a comment if you are any of these please and thank you.”
The images feature meme-style graphics styled like AI prompts, “computer bring me a bisexual vegan boy,” “computer bring me a dom vegan girl,” and “computer bring me a submissive nb vegan” (meaning non-binary).
According to PETA, the kink-promoting PETA2 arm is meant to appeal to youth as young as 13.
PETA2 has over 200,000 Instagram followers and regularly mixes animal welfare messaging with progressive social causes aimed at young audiences. The post had over 500 likes, but still no comments by Wednesday afternoon.
This isn’t PETA’s first jump into transgender and LGBTQ activism.
In a previous campaign, PETA featured transgender model and actor Carmen Carrera in a “Transform Your Wardrobe” campaign.
Carrera appeared naked in promotional materials for the organization, covered in transgender flag colored censor bars.
Yet PETA founder and president Ingrid Newkirk has repeatedly insisted the organization is not a “lefty” group.
In a 2014 Washington Examiner op-ed titled “PETA a ‘lefty’ group? Think again,” Newkirk claimed, “PETA fights cruelty to animals across all lines, period,” and “There’s nothing ‘lefty’ about that.”
Newkirk insisted the group’s mission is nonpartisan and focused solely on animal welfare, not political ideologies.
Their actions clearly tell another story.
They just think you’re suckers.
Just months ago, in November, PETA drew criticism for going on a jealous rant against the White Coat Waste Project (WCW), a more effective taxpayer watchdog group successfully working with Republicans and Democrats to end federal animal testing programs.
White Coat Waste famously exposed the transgender animal testing being funded by taxpayers, and has continued fighting to end it.
PETA officials lashed out at WCW for its “young-male-testosterone energy” and accused it of attacking other groups for fundraising purposes.
One PETA activist reportedly reacted to WCW’s criticism of an NIH official by asking, “Have they lost their f-cking minds?”
Despite PETA’s massive budget and decades of protests, WCW has racked up tangible wins, including ending primate testing at the Department of Veterans Affairs, closing the FDA’s largest monkey lab, and slashing NIH-funded experiments.
PETA has struggled to deliver results, seemingly preferring to pander to identity politics and rub elbows with officials in DC.
Instead of focusing on those kinds of concrete victories or the animals it claims to defend, PETA is busy playing matchmaker for “bisexual vegan boys” and “submissive non-binary vegans.”
The post’s awkward attempt to blend niche identity labels and kink with veganism comes across less like serious advocacy and more like a desperate bid to stay relevant with Gen Z and Alpha, both of which went through a pretty crazy rainbow trend for a few years.
PETA has long positioned itself as the loudest voice for animals, but posts like this one reveal where its priorities increasingly lie, not stopping animal testing, but ensuring the movement stays firmly aligned with the latest progressive cause du jour.
