I was asked to feed an outdoor cat in my neighborhood. I did. Several small animals have likely died because I helped one feel more comfortable. Do I need to go to prison.
I exist in USA where habitat is constantly destroyed for profit. There is no way for me to not be a part of this system. Should I be executed?
I fixed some damage to my home where there were carpenter ants digging in the wood. Not only did several likely die, but I also ruined their home. Shackle me to a trailer hitch.
I should have been more specific. The point isn’t about what predators do in the wild, or about accidental, unavoidable deaths. It’s about the violence that is intentional, done on a massive scale, and most importantly, completely unnecessary.
It all boils down to choice. A lion in the wild isn’t having a moral debate about its next meal; it’s just surviving. We, on the other hand, have tons of other options.
Nobody’s talking about punishing someone for accidentally stepping on a bug. It’s about questioning the entire systems that treat living, feeling beings like they’re just products for our pleasure or convenience, when it’s totally avoidable.

Put all wild meat eating animals in prison!
Because animals are usually subject to human laws?
Humans have the reasoning and introspection required to make the choice to not do unnecessary harm to animals, a lion does not.
And don’t get started on hyenas. Fuckers.
*most humans have
It’s like humor, most people have it but not all people have it 😉
Oops! I was trying to make a point but got called out on it so now it’s just a joke! 🤡
Not my fault if you thought someone really thinks this:
Guess some people really neads the /s tag lol
Are you stupid or pretending to be?
Lol, projection at it’s finest.
Ironically yes
You’re a fucking idiot and you’re projecting here.
But more importantly you’re a coward who makes a point and tries to pass it off as a joke the second someone pushes back
Why not keep silent in the first place? No one needed to know you were such a fucking loser.
