Care2 is a social networking website that was founded by Randy Paynter in 1998. Care2 collects signatures for a number of petitions for left-wing causes, such as animal rights, climate change, LGBTQ rights, reproductive rights and more. Topics include ending criminalization of homelessness, closing fur farms, ending use of plastic straws, and demanding the firing of those accused of sexual assault. Care2 petitions are often sponsored by left-wing organizations such as Planned Parenthood, PETA, Human Rights Campaign, and others.

If you find yourself aligning with any of those folks, you can move along, nothing to see here.
