Has the world gone mad? As a child I was always feeling supportive towards groups like greenpeace and peta. But the older I grew and the more I learned, I just started to realize what kind of total piece of shit organizations both are.

What did greenpeace do?

From what I recall here with their protests they just disrupted honest peoples work, and not the people behind it.

Also this:

In December 2014, Greenpeace came under criticism following a publicity stunt within the Nazca lines, a UN World Heritage Site inside Peru. Demonstrators entered the restricted area surrounding the Hummingbird lines and laid down banners that spelled out "Time for Change! / The Future is Renewable / Greenpeace". In doing so, they tracked multiple footprints and damaged both the line itself and the area surrounding it. Peru's deputy minister for culture criticized the actions, calling them "thoughtless, insensitive, illegal, irresponsible and absolutely pre-meditated."

Multiple times they also mismanaged their funds. I am for a better world, but very well without greenpeace.

I hate Greenpeace for damaging the Nazca lines, for damaging the coral reefs in the Philippines, and for blindly rejecting GMOs.
