Hunting with ranged weapons is such a bitch ass move.

    "Removed ass move"?

    That's quite the move, then.😆

    You should use a better instance.

    I'm sorry that you found my comment uncomfortable. If that's the case, do you mind telling me what exactly made you feel so?

    No, sir, or madam. I replied to you and you told me to use a better instance, that was when I sensed you might be upset about what I said.

    I now kind of get the hint of you telling me to "removed" off and never talk to you again. I will do that, and wish you a nice day.

    You either continue in ignorance or you're trolling. Your shitty Lemmy insurance censored the original text "b*tch ass move" into "Removed ass move" and then you, not understanding what happened, responded to the censored version that only you and other people on shitty censored instances can see. I had to also censor my post just to inform you that information you clearly need in order to understand posts here is being withheld from you by the shitty Lemmy instance which you should leave.

    I'm visiting from lemmy.ml.

    Today is the fisrt time ever I know that the censorship comes from the instance I visit posts from. Before that I thought some instances which host the post automatically replace curse words with "removed".

    Like I said, I stopped replying to the original commentor, but I am not comfortable about being seen as ignorant or trolling. I was neither.

    Your instance changed the "b" word to "removed". Everyone else sees the b word. Your comment made it obvious that you didn't know that your instance was censoring what you see and they made a cheeky joke about it. Then you were an removed to them.

    Some background on this comic:

    Transcript:

    Every time that I've seen a stuffed bear, it's posed in the standard, threatening-like stance. I guess every bear hunter would like to give the impression that this is exactly how the animal was snuffed―seconds before he (the hunter) was to be pulled into that terrible maw.

    I think the truth is much more akin to what I've drawn here.

    Indeed. Trophy hunters are scum of the Earth.

    Thankfully the "sport" seems mosty limited to African safaris where they are purposefully culling a given population. That's why I reserve my ire until I've read the story. In many cases the conservation folks get paid and someone had to cull that animal anyway.

    Now I am all in on feral pig trophy hunting. They're so bad that Florida has zero bag limits, no season defined and all methods allowed. Weapons free!

    You ever watch a nature documentary? I think you're in for a shock :(

    Plenty of sentients' that haven't even entered their stone age.

    So your proposal is that chimps and lions are going to stop eating meat when they enter their stone age? In spite of the wealth of evidence to the contrary?

    I'm okay with expecting better of people, but there is very little that humans do that other species don't. Eating other animals is just one of them.

    No that's not what I proposed at all. Nice straw man though.

    In spite of the wealth of evidence to the contrary?

    Source you fucking dweeb XD

    I expect better of sentience too. After all it created veganism in the first place.

    All this to say, very few animals practice agriculture and none have left the stone age.

    Well, let's back up. You said that meat eaters were the scum of the earth and that humans don't show up in nature documentaries. Not all meat eaters are human, but you aren't modifying your statement, so I'm left to conclude that lions and chimps are also scums of the earth, or that only non-sapients don't get a pass, since sentience is a bar that scientists believe many non-human animals rise above. Source. If there is a straw man here, it is created with your very own words. I suppose I would have to include the stone age, too, but at that point we have both redefined terms and moving goalposts.

    You could have modified your witty edit of the parent post to be "meat eating people are the scum of the earth" at any time, but you insisted on defending your superiority, right down to the name calling.

    I completely misunderstood this comic as a kid, I thought the bear was just playing dead

    I'm genuinely curious if the invention of trustworthy penis alteration surgery would have an effect on hunting's popularity. 🤷🏼‍♂️

    Sadly i get the vibe if everyone had the same penis ppl will still argue theirs is the best.

    I wonder how many hunting enthusiasts read this comic in the paper and didn't understand the joke (or didn't realize that this is making fun of them).

    Somehow the gap between picture two and three make this comic incredibly brutal to me. Especially the expression in picture two.

    this is one of my favorites with the after trying to make it look like he slew a mighty beast in an act of bravery but the truth is very different.
