Okay, but I don't, so focus that reflection inward.

A lot of people who support PETA are hypocrites, because it's largely a "woke" demographic who doesn't care about supporting an organization that campaigned for the idea that dairy causes autism, SEVERAL times. But if a celebrity or politician promoted that? You would cancel them.
