Yeah I'm sure it has nothing to do with these two huge animals being locked up in a tiny pool.

Fuck this animal torture carnist bullshit.

[–] [email protected] 21 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

A lot of animals in the free world where females eat the males especially after sex or absorb him after is pretty common.

Just figured if you’re gonna be an animal lover you should know this by now.

Sandtiger sharks cannibalize eachother before they are even born. They're a popular aquarium species and do very well in captivity, including successful captive breeding programs. They very rarely consume their fellow tank mates. Edit : Different species, not a courtship failure, Aquarium staff attributes this to territorial aggression, or an accident bump 'n bite which became a whole meal.

There is also incredible value in having ambassador animals that can inspire the public to care for their natural environment and see them as species worth preserving and making sacrifices for. This animal looks well fed, in good health, and free from spinal deformities that are common with inadequate health and nutrition for this species. I think your concerns are mostly unfounded here.

Funny how it's "inspirational" when the victim’s a man - but we’d all agree it’s a tragedy if the roles were reversed.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 3 weeks ago

It’s funny to me because when an incel bothers me I sure would like to sic a shark on them.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Female animals eat males pretty frequently in the animal world especially with fish. It’s not a political standing.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

This is what makes it political

[–] [email protected] -1 points 3 weeks ago

That looks like the part that makes it a joke to me

Honestly people act shocked that the younger generation of males in the world are conservative but this is what they see on a daily basis.

I'm all for feminism and equality but if you have to put someone down to lift yourself up that's not helpful for anyone.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Educate your sons that in the fish world this is pretty common for female fish to eat male especially after breeding and has no political standing. This isn’t to encourage women to hurt men. It’s fact over feelings. please stop radicalizing men over building this into misinformation.

Watch a documentary or two once in a while.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (5 children)

Someone else made the argument that this is common in other species but that argument goes out the window with the comment made in this picture.

They deliberately made this about feminism and that's what I'm referring to here.

I'm not some fuckin moron who thinks the female shark ate the male because "girl power"

Exactly. It's literally no surprise if you see how the woke left talks about men. Like what do we expect young impressionable boys to do? Lean into that and bear it or listen to the grifter asshats that tell them thats crazy and they are fine? I'm not saying it's correct because it's not, but that's why this happened.

There's a legitimate conversation to be had because of course patriarchical systems oppress men, but you can't expect anyone to listen to that when everyone's first brush with the people who want to change it is shit like this.

[–] [email protected] -4 points 3 weeks ago

Tell them it’s not ok to harass women. Start with that. Hardly left leaning to ask a person to stop going out of their way to make women feel uncomfortable. Stop making that a male feature. It’s gross. This. This is where the problem is starting. You are not a victim if you harass a woman and don’t get away with it. Stop being gross.

So many young men are turning into conservatism not because of femenism but because of the patriarchy. They keep being told men have to do this and that to be real men (men don't cry, men are the bread winners, househusbands are bad, men don't talk about feelings etc) And you know what? They feel like there is no one to stand up for them and they start seeing the movement that is fighting against all these things in the name of women as their enemy and lash out against it and fall into the words of grifters.

Of course there are a bunch of femcels, terfs etc. that call themselves femenist that bastardize the movement by trying to put women over men or even all genders. Instead of taking the hand of these men and help them fight these old norms and start normalizing the extistence of househusbands and housewives. Make it ok for men to show feelings and fighting for actual equality.

So if you are a secure man and actually care for the future you should not be fighting but be supporting femenism.

I'd put a lot more blame on the grifters purposely aiming to radicalise boys

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

This kind of content is what pushes them to those grifters though.

Radicalisation on one side always leads to radicalisation on the other, ending up with both sides using the other's ridiculous fringe ideas as justification for their own.

Yeah, several pieces of media that brought women prominently to a franchise that was lacking and my thought was that it seemed like a good direction.

Then half the time they go off on how a man would be too dumb, too selfish, or too violent to ever come up with such a good idea as the women. Often making the established male characters uncharacteristically dumber than usual to give the women time to shine.

Have the women, have then be strong, smart, independent. Don't take frequent opportunities to take potshots at men in general. I know media has been doing this to women for decades, and it may be gratifying to turn things around for a change, but it's just not great.

“Ate hirm“? Wtf are they censoring?

[–] [email protected] 15 points 3 weeks ago

Hiom, the sound the shark made when biting another shark.

[–] [email protected] 41 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

At this point it seems like they're just throwing around asterisks for ragebait. The algorithm probably figured out that posts containing an asterisk get more engagement, so now they pretty much have to throw it in there to get attention. It's annoying...

[–] [email protected] 13 points 3 weeks ago

I really hope there comes a day where all this nonsense builds up and finally ends with "algorithms" imploding on themselves.

An unrealistic hope, but a hope nonetheless.

Ate his majesty the patriarchal the king of the rim

I believe unnecessary censorship has become a cheap way to increase engagement

[–] [email protected] 11 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (1 children)

It's not even censorship, they replaced ' with *, but it's still for the same reason. Every person who has ever done that, conscious misspelling and censorship for engagement, deserve a lead fist to the face.

That*s the worst part of it

[–] [email protected] 5 points 3 weeks ago

You just gotta put it in yourself, like this:

Hi’m

Now you try

[–] [email protected] 34 points 3 weeks ago

I can*t believe it has come to this.

[–] [email protected] 19 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

But they didn't censor male
