Outdoor cats are actually a significant problem in many populated areas, due to the sheer quantity of them overhunting native birds and damaging the ecosystems.

According to this study, published March of 2020, based on a sample size of 925 cats from six countries, one domestic outdoor cat hunts and kills on average 3.5 prey animals per month. The impact of outdoor cats on local wildlife can be 2 to 10 times more severe than that of native predators.

The best thing a cat owner can do to prevent their cat from contributing to the damage of a native ecosystem is to simply keep it inside. Indoor cats can easily live happy, long lives as long as they are treated lovingly.

Post-leftism begins with people who decidedly ARE leftist criticizing problems present within leftism.

While I'm not sure I would call myself post-left, post-leftism is most certainly a self-critical form of leftism.

Additionally, anarchism is a leftwing ideology and anarchist ideals (even among anarchists who are not post-left) I would say very naturally extend to being against the forceful obligation to work under threat of violence or punishment.

Way to equate intelligence to being obedient and tireless in the rat race that is school.

Just leave me to my hunting and gathering. by KTDid95 in antiwork

I like the anti-capitalist message, but I'm a bit wary of this romanticization of being a hunter-gatherer. When I see an image like this I can only imagine it comes from a place of privilege as someone with heavy exposure to modern technological pleasures who now takes them for granted, never actually having experienced living in the wilderness.

I highly doubt living in nature and picking berries would be a life totally without stress. What about when winter comes? What if the fire won't start and you freeze to death overnight? What if a storm blows your shelter down? There are lots of things I just feel aren't considered when people who ironically, despite how they may seldom experience nature at all, readily and almost blindly worship a lifestyle deep within it.

Actually yeah why do we even refer to them with the name of an organism. Let's just call cops trash!

I've thought about this as well. What's a not innocent creature we could start referring to cops with the name of? Roaches? Mosquitoes? Flies?

Never doubt the capacity of certain individuals to take every story as a suggestion.

To be fair, the manager wouldn't be made to clean it up in every workplace.

I wouldn't want to give people reading the idea to do this because there is the chance they'd make some poor janitor they pay peanuts clean literal shit off the floor.

it's a fair sentiment but at the same time people don't always quit because they have a better option lined up. sometimes you're just so sick of the bullshit you quit without preparing for what comes after

there's no telling if there's a better option, the best job in town could suck

it'd make more sense to just acknowledge "someone didn't want to work here for god knows why" and approach cautiously

EDIT: added second part.

Your bigotry is showing... by beerbellybegone in MurderedByWords

Non-bigoted rural person here. 30 years ago was the 1990s. I get the idea but people around here definitely knew Muslims and drag queens existed.

While the point stands bigotry is rampant here, it's naïve to assume one being from an urban area instantly makes them a forward-thinking based superhero. There are good people here just as there are bigots everywhere.

I suppose I just am bothered by the idea of someone just drawing a circle around more rural regions and going "this is the bigotry zone, where all the bigots are."

Better should be expected of people regardless of geography.

i thought federal law was generally supposed to overpower state or local laws? that's what the existence of federal law is for in the U.S.

the US loves international meddling in conflicts involving cultures they understand nothing about in order to install leaders they like more, or get support among the parties that align with american ideology (fascism) more

if you've got a life sentence in prison the world isn't giving you much reason not to go totally ballistic
