On July 14th, Twitter user @seananmcguire[5] responded by tweeting, "PETA makes me so angry. Tweeting any sort of gore is a way to traumatize people. It doesn't create vegans out of nothing; it is an upsetting, triggering method of flexing moral superiority, like showing porn to children to make them go 'ew, gross'" (shown below). The tweet accumulated over 5,000 likes and 800 retweets in a day. Newsweek[1] reposted on the backlash PETA received for the tweet.

A illuminaughtii @illuminaughtii PETA out here showing dissected animals on twitter thinking that will move people to support people. All I've been seeing is people unfollowing them and blocking them.
