I hate the innate speciesism of the meme. You know the person who made this was posting about hecking good woofers on twitter 4 years ago.

In fact I’ve always felt strange about the defense of spiders like this. I don’t like how it’s often centered around their practicality (this species kills pests, so treat it with respect). Often it implies there are vermin species (flies, mosquitos, roaches) which are to be regarded is no such way as the lofty arachnids.

TLDR: spider lovers are fascists.

While I acknowledge that even mosquitoes have their purpose, you're correct that this animal-meritocracy bullshit leans fascist. I am self-critting about it
