nope, furries perform just as badly as non furries here. therians are slightly better, and tend to identify more strongly with furry fandom. from furscience:
Animals

When asked if they were currently a vegetarian, 3% of furries and 6% of therians responded “yes”. When asked if they had ever been a vegetarian, 14% of furries and 10% of therians responded “yes”. These responses did not differ significantly from one another, nor did they differ significantly from the responses of non-furries.

Q15: How do furries feel about animal rights?
We asked participants about animal rights in a number of different ways. One way was to ask them, directly, whether or not they a) supported animal rights, and b) considered themselves to be an animal rights activist. 83% of furries reported that they supported animal rights, and 7% said that they considered themselves to be an animal rights activist, numbers which did not differ significantly from non-furries’ responses. Therians, on the other hand, were statistically significantly more likely to both support animal rights (Therians: 94%; t(139.305) = 2.52, p = .013) and to self-identify as an animal rights activist (Therians: 19%; t(65.150) = 2.15, p = .035).

We then asked participants about their agreement/disagreement (on a 1-5 scale ranging from “strongly disagree” to “strongly agree”) with 28 different animal rights issues.

In particular, furries felt felt strong agreement with items showing concern about displacing animals for land use, the use of animals in laboratory research, pain and suffering in animals, wearing of animal fur, and cosmetics testing on animals. They tended to disagree or be relatively unbothered by eating of animals or animal products.

We created a composite of the 28 items to create an overall scale of animal rights activism. Therians were significantly higher in their agreement with concerns over animal rights activism than furries (Therians = 2.60, Furries = 2.36, t(200) = 2.67, p = .008). This is, perhaps, unsurprising, given that therians are more likely to identify with animals and could thus be expected to be more sympathetic to animal rights issues.

i'm not joking. this thing is real: www.theguardian.com/environment/...
Then there is the Masters of Beef Advocacy (MBA) course, though the NCBA has even more ambitious plans to combat what it calls “misinformation”.

Using checkoff money, NCBA has developed what it has called a “Digital Command Center” – a sophisticated online monitoring system that tracks media outlets and social media for more than 200 beef-related topics. Hosted in Denver in a space that “looks like a military operations center combined with the TV section at an electronics retailer”, according to a recent Cattlemen’s Beef Board mailer sent to ranchers, the command center alerts members of NCBA’s issues management and media relations team whenever stories or online chatter rise above a certain threshold. It’s staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with personnel redundancies built in to make sure someone’s always watching.

One goal is to enable the industry to respond to emerging public health or economic emergencies. But the center, which received $742,400 in checkoff money for fiscal year 2023, is also used to keep track of public conversations around beef’s sustainability in real-time – and to deploy “talking points, media statements, fact sheets, infographics, videos and various digital assets” as necessary to shift the terms of conversation.

NCBA calls it “proactive reputation management”: a strategy that entails monitoring the internet for messaging opportunities, then leaping in to burnish beef’s image whenever it’s advantageous.

i'd argue it's already covered by the harassment policy, but maybe it should be made explicit. what i perceive as harmless and dopey looking hits way too close to home for others.
