PETA is protesting Warhammer models because of depictions of fur.

I'm guessing the overlap of Warhammer players and PETA supporters is between 0 and 3 people.

Being strictly fair, the depiction of fur in Warhammer models is terrible. This wouldn't have happened if people had actual fur stoles, collars, and coats to use as a basis for comparison.

I have that one bit somewhere in the box (yes, I have the wanking Orc too).
I'm tempted to post it to PETA, together with a letter that when they called GW out on such a portrayal of animal cruelty, I realized they were right and I'm thus sending them the offending piece of plastic to dispose of as they see fit.

Vegans are just awful people. The tl;dr of it is they are a "liberal" group that wants to dictate lifestyle because they are triggered by dead animals. Its not even the lettuce eating that is important to them.

PETA tortures animals and video tapes it.

>>
>>51485014
>>51485037
>>51478919
PETA is almost impossibly insane. They euthanize virtually all animals handed over to them while making not any attempt to find them homes over 99% of the time, they want to stop carnivores from eating meat, they are against pet ownership, etc. etc. And they are against fictional descriptions of fur.
>>
>>51485913

They don't believe in the care of animals, they believe in the liberation of animals.

If they could get away with it, they'd just start poisoning any pet/livestock product until it became impossible to care for animals in captivity.

Ironically, that was already in the game, PETA's 'attack' on them came just before the new game's release at the time, so either Nintendo worked super fast to change the game, or PETA somehow saw an advanced copy and got pissed enough to launch a preemptive strike (or it was all just, you know, coincidence).

Either way, Pokemon won and PETA lost.

That would be nice, but the reality is they're just completely insane. PETA is built upon the idea that animals are better off euthanized than living as pets or livestock.
They get public funding from really gullible people by being quiet about this belief and pretending to be your friendly animal protection agency and government funding by exploiting legal loopholes and claiming to be a nonprofit organization.
In the end it's little more than a personality cult (of the founder) dedicated to intellectual masturbation and ensuring its own existence.
We don't need to talk about it and we certainly don't need five threads about it.

>Being strictly fair, the depiction of fur in Warhammer models is terrible.

Being strictly fair, fur needs to be modeled in a pretty stylized and unrealistic manner for people to get what it's trying to be. Like so many other materials, modeling it "accurately" at the scale of wh figs is either impossible, or would just end up looking like a smooth surface.

It's the same with ground textures. Dirt or sand looks like smooth surfaces at 28mm scale, but we still put sand on our miniatures, because otherwise it looks kind of stupid.

That said, older minis had less of the offending spiky world of warcraft looking fur than newer ones.

PETA makes a single press release, 40kids chimp out all across the Internet, PETA gets some more hits on their website and keeps their organization in the public consciousness. They're not trying to convince GW to stop making furshit models, they're succeeding in getting more people talking about them.

>but we're making fun of them

Doesn't matter; as long as a few people who are interested in the group hear about it, they've succeeded in their efforts to raise awareness of their organization.

Sensationalism and trolling are viable business models in the Internet age.

Raising awareness in one thing, gaining the attention of people that actually want to support you is quite another.

According to new canon, humans ARE Pokemon. Just a special kind.

Its like Clefairy not letting you have molnstones I guess.

There's also oddities like Koffing refusing to obey Meowth not because he's a Pokemon, but because Koffing only obeys James out of brotherly love rather than compulsion.

>Raising awareness in one thing, gaining the attention of people that actually want to support you is quite another.
Good job skipping over the part that specifically addressed this:

>as long as a few people who are interested in the group hear about it, they've succeeded in their efforts to raise awareness of their organization.

If PETA puts out an inflammatory press release, and 1,000 40kids hear about it, and 10 of them were already leaning toward PETA, and 3 of those 10 make an effort to join the group, that means PETA succeeded in virally marketing themselves.

does this ACTUALLY work though
last i recall everybody who tries this shit ends up fading into obscurity anyway and isn't actually better off for it.
you can harp on all you like about raising awareness but in the end you're still making vastly more people oppose your cause or business than you are bringing people in, which surprisingly isn't a good long-term strategy at all. the 'long game' here is shit.

not to mention that you forget that people aren't guaranteed to support something for life if they begin supporting it - if you do enough crazy and dumb shit and piss off enough people you're going to start losing supporters. so in your example they could've easily lost just as many supporters as they gained.
