I see the fediverse is composed almost entirely of vegetarians. Feeling bad for a winged rat? Honestly? It's not like this man is just going around killing animals like Baron Trump...
I live in the French equivalent of NYC rat wise and trust me, either my cat or I get rid of the pests quickly.
Would you like it if someone grabbed you by your feet and killed you by swinging you into a wall? What the fuck is wrong with you?
Well, I'm not going up to people and stealing their shit
You've never stolen anything, even as a teenager?
What kind of childhood did you have where you think it's normal to mug people as a teenager?
Like threatening people or just snatching stuff like a seagull?
Why are you randomly murdering animals you do not plan on eating? Your cat has instincts to kill so they get a pass but what is your excuse?
Do you not get that killing a seagull like this is not a good thing?
What about this was "random?"
“ I live in the French equivalent of NYC rat wise and trust me, either my cat or I get rid of the pests quickly. “
That’s the part Im addressing with my comment about random killing. I’m not talking about the article.
Again, purposeful pest removal is not "random."
That entirely depends on why you are killing these animals. If you are just killing rats or seagulls outside your home, that is random killing.
It's really not a big deal, and I don't understand why it should be. He had a moment of anger (very valid) and what I assume was an immediate, unthinking violent reaction (also understandable but it might have scared some people around, which is not as cool), else the bird would've just flown away. I feel bad for the kids watching it, but more so for the dude who just wanted to eat chips in peace. A bird is a bird, and he's not going around exterminating all birds in existence. Use your heart to give homeless people money, to raise abandoned kids and to stop imperialism and genocide.
I would argue the moment of anger bit wasn't valid or rational.
I don't think you should be giving anyone advice.
I think you expect too much of people in that case. Idk what tribe you're from (I can guess), but I hope you come from a land of peace loving, vegetarian erudites.
Please guess what "tribe" I am from
Not vegan, vegetarian, or even uncommonly attached to animals. But you are a disgusting person. Rats are great. Rats with wings are pretty cool too. Killing stuff that inconveniences you is psychotic behaviour. Simple as.
That's sweet. I hope you have the same level of empathy for human beings.
Of course I do. That empathy need not stretch into the loss of a fucking chip. And in front of children no less...
Well, at least you feel bad for the children, that's more reasonable.
Guess what that "person" doesn't feel any empathy for humans
You're a gross person
Go talk to your plants, I bet they're the only ones who tolerate you. 😤
If you have no empathy for animals just trying to do their thing, that is a good indicator that you'll lack empathy for people as well.
I understand they're trying to do their thing, and that's what happens. He's not going around torturing birds for his entertainment. And here I'm entirely on the side of humanity, lol, what? I feel bad for the dude, his day was probably ruined.
You’re a fucking crybaby, you fucking crybaby.
If his day is ruined by losing a bit of food, he needs to find someone to talk to about mental health. No one should be that close to the edge of violent response.
He got violently assaulted by a seagull and had a gut reaction with a seagull. I know you wanna equate it semantically to people being problematic with people but, again, unless you're even more peaceful and selfless than Aang from ATLA, you're just being emotionally hypocritical. Had he eaten the seagull or composted it to reduce waste, what would the problem be?
I'm sorry. I've had gut reactions before. Normal humans will swat or punch things.
It takes thought to grab it by the legs, and slap it on a wall.
But yeah, if it was just some unconscious reaction, then whatever. But in that case, I'm curious why a fuckin ninja is among the regular population.
Do ypu think we are in a war against seagulls?
His day was ruined by his own actions, not the loss of a chip. Are you fucking dense?
??? He got assaulted by a winged rat. I'm about to eat chicken right now. It seems like you have a lot of feelings and that's actually nice and sweet but the direction is wrong IMO.
??????
You could have just answered the question about being dense with a yes.
