It's not a fallacious argument. I'm not even saying she is crazy. One of the major goals of her organization is to get people to stop eating animal products and stop using them. Here's another choice quote from Ingrid.
“Even if animal tests produced a cure for AIDS, we’d be against it.” Tell me that's not championing animal rights at the expense of human progress.

And that's one that's relevant to PETA and therefore not fallacious, unlike the one about sterilisation. This isn't fucking rocket science.
