>someone is abusing an animal
>everybody freaking out
>"it's okay it's an invasive species"
>now people are encouraging him to do it more
Why the double standard? I see this everywhere on social media. Are normies secretly psychopaths?

>No species are invasive
Only people I know who reason like this are the monkey torture weirdos. Granted, I've heard people threaten such things against spiders and snakes, but most of those people are too scared to even get within 10 yards of one knowingly.
Killingan invasive species to protect the local wildlife and fauna is sometimes necessary, but the only benefit torturing them has is allowing creepy weirdos to get off to it.
Are you afraid they will move to invasive populations next, my brown friend?
brownsissies…
whatever makes you feel better animal abuser
Invasive species should be dealt with quickly, efficiently and without causing unnecessary suffering. That does not mean one is prohibited from getting satisfaction from a job well done.
When did you realize "biologists" are unironically moronic?
>discover new introduced fish (pic related loach is an example)
>it lives in shallow ditches filled with mud
>"HOLY FRICK ITS GOING TO EXTINCT THE RARE SHINER THAT LIVES IN CLEAR FLOWING ROCKY STREAMS!!!!!!"
>This just in: Terminally contrarian Reddit refugees adapt their personality from "Invasive species bad!" to "Introduced things good!"
Thread hidden.
If an animal isn't needed for food, labour, or entertainment, or is simply not cute, it has no value for humans. That means any animal that's not immediately useful, or worse, is threatening the existence of useful animals, can be hunted down to extinction without mercy and nobody will bat an eye.
Let me guess
Its a fricking bug or snake
>Invasive species
Why is being adaptable and succesful a bad thing for humancels?
It’s only good when we do it.
>Topic in regards to animals
>Moral consistency
It's the woman you are talking about moron when will you learn.
Animal abuse is evil regardless of whether it’s a native or invasive. Most people share this view, but some will hypocritically abandon if when they see ugly animals like Cane Toads
obsessed
nigs do tend to be obsessed
Yes, if you had not noticed, most people are very eager to inflict suffering on acceptable targets, they are especially dangerous in large groups where individual accountability is diminished and when an authority figure tells them to do something further removing blame.
>Are normies secretly psychopaths?
Yeah, they're just looking for excuses to let out their violent urges on something that can't defend itself and feel righteous about it
That said, it's really funny how they will actively encourage people needlessly torturing invasive species instead of dispatching them quickly but at the same time will throw a tantrum at the thought of stray cats (one of the most destructive invasive species) being culled
Normies will go along with whatever they’re told to think. Very simple. Not hard to justify animals when the reasoning is ‘they’re hurting other animals just by being here’
>Are normies secretly psychopaths?
Always has been. When you're accepting things without questioning them you're enabling the worst atrocities.
the goal is to keep the ecosystem balanced. youre supposed to care for the beneficial species and remove the harmful ones
Wouldnt it balance out in general? Or is that too dangerous. Like if an invasive plant started spreading, wouldnt it naturally die out for taking too much resources or a new creature will come and take care of it be it animal, fungi, plant, or bacteria. I suppose humans are just taking that role, but if an invasive animal shows up I thought it would naturally balance out.
it can kill off a lot of other species before balancing itself out.
No. Look at kudzu and house sparrows.
>kudzu
Edible legume eaten by everything. Deer love to eat it, goats are capable of eradicating it. It's a problem where there are no animals to eat it.
>house sparrows
They live in the city and suburbs. Yes they bully other birds which is bad but they associate around humans so they will never go into places like woodland.
There was some land near where I grew up that looked like my pic. There were deer in that area and they didn't do anything to keep it in check.
Where was it? Kudzu is a pioneer species, it fixes nitrogen so other species can grow. It needs full sunlight and dies once it is shaded. You won't find it deep in a forest, only on the edges of roads and rivers and such.
>Wouldnt it balance out in general?
of course it will, it just won't be balanced out until long after everyone on the planet has died. these things don't work over the span of a couple weeks, they take a long time.
this is the same bullshit with rightoids and climate change. they go "hurr durrr the weather looks fine outside my window, climate change fake...hurr durr glaciers are still here climate change fake". while i won't deny the climate alarmism is a problem, things ARE changing and they WILL get worse before they "balance out". the problem has never been the climate per se, it's the societal and political implications of having tens of millions of people's lives disrupted. homie you think the browns emigrating to europe is bad now? wait until ~30 years or so when the most fertile farming regions in india (also the most populous regions on the planet) start having droughts lasting years. you'd think rightoids would be able to get on board with that, but the brain damage they have doesn't allow them to plan more than a week in advance.

>invasive species
Well they are invasive so they are causing more harm than any good by being alive... its sad and its not their fault, but theres nothing else we can do but try to mantain the ecosystem
that doesn't mean you have to abuse and torture them, when simple quick killing is enough
Oh! Sure! Thats what i meant, abuse and unnecessary suffering are objectively cruel
Anon, I'm genuinely curious. Where do you see people torturing invasives? Is it the hogs? I'll grant you the hogs, kind of fricked what rednecks do to them over here.
But really in most cases people just kill invasive critters quickly and humanely and move on.
I live in straya and people basically celebrate abusing cane toads with disinfectant sprays and golf clubs instead of just killing them quickly and humanely (no I don't consider a body hit from a golf club a quick death).
All species are invasive
honestly this argument has never stuck. Systematic changes have and always will do more than asking 'the people' to kill on sight. I will not kill animals or bugs because they're "invasive".
I'll kill a fly or mosquito here and there, sure, but beyond keeping my home clean, no. I'll even opt not to kill in those cases if I can.
It's impractical and cruel.
Easy to say when you have no real state in it. Places get fricked up fast by invasives.
I agree. We need to stop worrying so much and just froge
