PETA is not going to like this but I doubt they'll try any confrontational tactics with China.

Does PETA stand for "people eating tasty animals"?

No. That tired old meme has been around forever.

I guess some people just don't have the brain power to come up with something a little more original than a worn-out, overused cliché.

It's pretty bizarre how the OP rails against supposed suppression and the "socialist dictatorship" in the US daily...cheers and laughs about the suppression of rights from an actual socialist autocratic regime that enforces suppression with executions.

No need. Too late now to show how clever you can be.

Actually I was trying to point out how these groups such PETA, Greeniacs or other fringe groups(mainly from the left) always trying to present themselves as courageous fighting against the evil capitalistic US government. However, when they do really come up against a totalitarian regime. All of sudden not a peep!
