PETA Releases Statement on Palworld

The People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, PETA, issues a statement about the supposed animal cruelty in Pocketpair’s survival game Palworld.

gamerant.com

• Animal rights organization PETA is concerned about the cruelty towards animals in the open-world game Palworld.
• PETA may create a vegan guide for Palworld fans who do not want to eat the game's animal characters.
• While PETA's statement focuses on eating Pals, there are other potentially questionable activities in the game, such as capturing animals for breeding and labor.

PETA has already heard from many Palworld fans who have no interest in eating ‘Pals’ and want a vegan guide created for the game. It’s ‘Veganuary’ after all, and gamers want to help animals by eating vegan in their game worlds and outside.

They are just upset that they don't get to do the killing.

 

[thicc_girls_are_teh_best]

Maybe PETA should focus on the real-world slaughterhouse factories if they want to make things better for animals? Or the poachers while at it?

Stopping imaginary creatures in a virtual game from being harmed isn't going to do much. If anything Palworld's probably doing a better job highlighting animal cruelty than PETA has for the past decade.

It's not real life you cunts

Another idiot joins the chat. Who's next?

 

[Mr Hyde]

I just ate my hamster

 

[Bombolone]

Yes Palworld. Yes…

 

[Pop]

Peta just wants some headlines. Can't let the popularity go to waste

 

[Fbh]

Eating them seems counterintuitive when you can use them as cheap labor.

 

[Skifi28]

Cruelty against plants will not be tolerated. They are living too, do these people have no hearts?

[Codes 208]

Theyre just mad that they didnt think of it first

 

[efyu_lemonardo]

Is this another example of extreme woke-ism?
What the hell?

 

[GutsOfThor]

For every animal you don't eat, I'm going to eat three.

 

[nikos]

There's absolutely no fucking way I Just read "Veganuary."

 

[JayK47]

Struggling for relevance. Sad.

If you search "PETA stole" on YouTube, the first result is a video with just 19k views and makes up a bunch of lies alleging that PETA never stole animals.

I know people also love to hate Wikipedia for "bias" but they definitely did not pull this shit

Don't see the point of giving those clowns any attention.

 

[Crayon]

Totally not a publicity stunt.

 

[notjeffgoldblum]

They’re right. After playing Palworld I ate one of my cats and made the other do the dishes.

 

[Lucifers Beard]

They're not animals though, their Pokémon, sorry Pals. Fuck off PETA you absolute moronic cunts.

You know something has strayed into lame territory when Peta gets involved

 

[stuminus3]

This is marketing for PETA and you’re all falling for it.

 

[T4keD0wN]

Nothing to see here, just go back to killing some humans in Call of Duty or kids in Fortnite instead.

This can only be parody at this point

 

[Lupin25]

For fictional creatures?

These companies really bet on the idiocy of humanity lol

[xrnzaaas]

There are going to be plenty of nutjobs and attention whores going after Palworld because of it becoming a phenomenon so quickly. Expect cries about cartoonish violence in a "Pokemon game" and featuring oversexualized/underdressed characters.

Vegan gaming? Vegans are so fucking dogmatic. They are stupid too because they freak out if something has touched meat then touches their food but don't start losing it when they smell meat. The smell of meat is because fats and other chemicals from the meat get into the air. They should be mapping out routes to get around town that steer clear of any restaurant. Wait they shouldn't even drive because cars kill insects. And obviously they should only drive EVs and only get power from sources that did not harm any animals.

 

[ReBurn]

Gotta protect those fictional digital creatures at all costs.

Yesterday I cut up about 3 lbs of pork tenderloin into thin slices, then made a homemade marinade using soy sauce, sake, gochujang, garlic, onions, msg, and brown sugar. I let it marinate for many hours, then cooked it in cast iron, served with some jasmine rice. Was the best pork dish I’ve ever made.

 

[Putonahappyface]

I just ate my hamster

Rentahamster ?

[LiquidMetal14]

More publicity for the game

 

[Celcius]

PETA stands for

Pclowns
Eclowns
Tclowns
Aclowns

 

[gaming_again]

There's absolutely no fucking way I Just read "Veganuary."

Our entire work intranet is plastered with veganuary propaganda. iOS recognises it as a real word.

It's over.

 

[Fake]

 

[Markio128]

This game will sell gang busters in China.

 

[Majormaxxx]

THEY ARE JUST RIDING THE PUBLICITY WAVE.

 

[lughnasadh123]

If that worries them, wait till they find out about all the horrible things people do to other humans in games.

 

[Davevil]

this game attire much retarded
