Comment on What do we think of greenpeace activists?

Can’t talk for anyone else, but I put them in the same category as PETA.
They probably do a lot of good, but it feels like the good they do is outweighed by all the bad they do to get there.
Like kidnapping collared dogs from the streets to euthanize them (PETA), or fighting the (at the time) only realistic alternative to oil, giving all the rich oil sheiks a hard on and adding to the already bad global warming problem (Greenpeace).

While there was like 1 fucked up story about a PETA employee doing that, it’s not something they actually do. It’s like the needles in the Halloween candy, people still spread the story

Right, I thought it was a group of employees doing this over an extended period of time, might not be a fair comparison after all then.
Not that it’s a fair comparison to begin with, I just held a similar amount of annoyance toward the two.
