Title: Another Nintendo-based flash game, PETA?
Post by: Lotos on November 19, 2008, 03:16:31 PM
This time, it's Cooking Mama (http://www.peta.org/cooking-mama/index.asp)!

I'm having fun getting the "meaner than mama" comment.  It was fun until she tries to cook tofu :(

Aw, I like how they even were so nice to even put 'The Unauthorised PETA version'  on the logo.


And I can't wait until we go out to and pick out our turkey from the farm. giggle;

Seriously. 


But this game is to make little kids scared of eating meat so they click on that link to 'pledge to become veg'.  I guess their pamphlets about their mommy killing animals didn't work enough.

It's not the organisation itself, but when they want total animal liberation and they throw paint or in the most recent case flour on people, it just seems little out there to me.  Don't get me wrong though, I really do think we should fix the way we raise our livestock or at least have another option to buy them from farmers who allow them to roam free during their life.

I guess then it is just a difference of opinion (the last part excluded but I don't eat meat at all)

It's not really that so much as the insane tactics that PETA employs sometimes, like this game for example. I mean really, aiming shit like this at kids is pretty disgusting.

If they could just be a normal organization against animal cruelty, I wouldn't mind at all.

I do agree that this particular organization does get a bit ridiculous. Was this aimed at kids?

No It's just PETA for me.

I mean seriously, that shit about them wanting Ice cream to be made with human breast milk instead of cow milk was fucked up.

If I detach myself I don't really see how it's messed up. Thinking about it at first it sounded gross but then I tried to think of a reason as to why it would be gross and honestly, I can't. I guess it's just disturbing because human breast milk seems much more personal then any other sort of milk (or that is how it makes sense to me)

Why do you think that it's gross?

Because it's basically like saying to your mother "Hey mom I'm out of milk for my cereal" and having her come over and using her breast milk on your cereal.

And milking doesn't hurt the cows

I'm not saying that I agree that it should be that way, I'm just asking for a reason why it's gross (and I don't think the one you supplied here was sufficient. I sort of addressed this in my previous post about how it just seems to be more personal. If you can't that's okay)

I wouldn't imagine that it does but I don't like thinking about it either way. What an unfortunate existence.

It seems to come off that way to me as I can see Cooking Mama being fairly popular with younger children.

I can understand that but I wonder where this game is located on the internet. If it is on the Peta website I cannot imagine that too many children are going to be on that site.

I'm pretty sure they intended it that way, considering the types of messages they're using and the fact they chose Cooking Mama. It's a cheap scare tactic using a series more popular with the younglings.

I can see your reasoning but I think it really depends on where this game has been uploaded. If it was to the Peta website again, I cannot imagine that too many kids will be browsing through that site.

Yeah, I'm not really sure where it was originally located, or if they spread it, or what. I'm assuming it's been spread to a lot of places, considering how quickly I saw it posted on /f/, here, and NSF.

What are /f/ and NSF?

And maybe you're right even if PETA only posted on their website it could have spread elsewhere pretty quickly. I don't really understand how these things work. It really doesn't seem that malicious to me but maybe I am not looking at it from the right way.

/f/ is the flash board on 4chan, and NSF is an Nsider spin-off

in essence, everyone knows about this flash by now, it seems, so PETA definitely got the exposure they wanted

Same here, honestly. I may go to 4chan, but its bloated presence on the internet and it's "influence" annoys me to no end. I wish it had stayed a smaller place.

And NSF mostly sucks...I just happen to go once in a blue moon, and noticed that someone posted that.

If PETA were a group who simply wanted animals to be treated in more humane ways, I'd be all for it. However, when they do things like this, nobody takes them seriously and we all just see them as a bunch of maniacs. befuddlement
