Sublette County Sheriff K.C. Lehr has received more than 7,000 emails about a Wyoming man who reportedly captured and tormented a wolf before killing it, he told Cowboy State Daily on Wednesday.
Some of those are threats.
Lehr said people in his office, as well as Sublette County and Wyoming Game and Fish Department personnel, have been receiving threats — including death threats — stemming from Daniel, Wyoming, man Cody Roberts’ reported capture, torment and killing of a wild wolf in late February.
You don't need to promote your ideals here. Find a soapbox somewhere more appropriate.
Fuck anyone who is cruel to animals.
People in slaughterhouses are cruel to animals. But you don't care about that, so you don't actually believe what you're saying.
What you mean to say is "fuck anyone who is cruel to animals [that I prefer]". Be honest.
What I mean is that slaughterhouses are terrible and I'm a hypocrite for eating meat regardless. But that's a mechanized system that I can't control as opposed to an individual acting on their own. You don't know what I care about, so fuck off.
Now isn’t the time to double down on veganism.
I don't follow, are you making a normative claim against veganism or against the framing of some specific topic as a means of activism?
If it's the former, feel free to expand. If it's the latter, I don't really give a shit. It's not my responsibility to placate peoples' delicate rationalizations. I suppose if you had hard evidence on the effectiveness of different forms of engagement, I'd be interested in hearing it, but you don't. I have convinced a dozenish people IRL to be vegan at this point, and I have no way of knowing how many online.
No. I’m saying this specific comment section, in this particular reply chain, where you’ve already been told to fuck off once, isn’t the most effective place to spread your message.
Also I’m literally drinking my breakfast soylent right now, maybe don’t assume every single person you talk to is ideologically opposed to you. It makes you come off like a real pissbaby.
This is totally unfair and you misunderstood me. Notice that in response to your assertion to not "double down on veganism" I didn't even assume you were arguing against veganism. That was obviously a possibility, but the other possibility was you were arguing against the methods by which I was communicating.
So you should've started out your comment with "yes", because I literally exactly nailed what you were doing with my second option.
I preemptively responded to that position, so you can either go back and read that, or fuck off yourself.
The fact you’re arguing at all is bonkers, why is this an argument? You’re not changing any minds telling people to go fuck themselves, that’s all I’ve been saying this whole fucken time.
My mistake for getting involved. You are perfectly demonstrating why people think all vegans are incessant whiny bitches.
Dude, I'm sorry for you honestly. It must be exhausting to force yourself to engage with people online and then get mad and frustrated at them and yourself for arguing.
I engage online because I find value in it, engaging with other views is how I learn. I wasn't born a vegan socialist, I was born a meat-eating capitalist, and lived that way through my childhood into early adulthood. I found value in engaging online in different ways with different views to assess the true state of the world and grow as a person.
You on the other hand seem miserable and agitated. You don't seem to be gaining anything from this, so I genuinely don't understand why you're doing this. You should talk to a therapist if you don't already, it's helpful in a ton of ways ime.
I ask genuine questions, you call me a pissbaby (because you misunderstood me lol) before I say anything to you that could be construed as negative , then you call me whiney and flip out that I told you you could fuck off as an alternative to reading what I said earlier. You're projecting a lot of negativity outwards and then get incredibly frustrated when anyone says anything remotely negative towards you, like you're entitled to just be as negative as you want but anyone who reciprocates that negativity is morally failing. It's wild, and like I said earlier, must be exhausting. This can't possibly be healthy for you.
lol
Right?
