    I see the fediverse is composed almost entirely of vegetarians. Feeling bad for a winged rat? Honestly? It’s not like this man is just going around killing animals like Baron Trump…

    I live in the French equivalent of NYC rat wise and trust me, either my cat or I get rid of the pests quickly.

      If you have no empathy for animals just trying to do their thing, that is a good indicator that you’ll lack empathy for people as well.

        I understand they’re trying to do their thing, and that’s what happens. He’s not going around torturing birds for his entertainment. And here I’m entirely on the side of humanity, lol, what? I feel bad for the dude, his day was probably ruined.

          If his day is ruined by losing a bit of food, he needs to find someone to talk to about mental health. No one should be that close to the edge of violent response.

            He got violently assaulted by a seagull and had a gut reaction with a seagull. I know you wanna equate it semantically to people being problematic with people but, again, unless you’re even more peaceful and selfless than Aang from ATLA, you’re just being emotionally hypocritical. Had he eaten the seagull or composted it to reduce waste, what would the problem be?

              I’m sorry. I’ve had gut reactions before. Normal humans will swat or punch things.

              It takes thought to grab it by the legs, and slap it on a wall.

              But yeah, if it was just some unconscious reaction, then whatever. But in that case, I’m curious why a fuckin ninja is among the regular population.

                ❤️ I’d like to believe it’s just some maybe brutish/unafraid but otherwise okay fella and not some everyday sociopath, lol.

      This is no about the seagull, it is about actions of this psycho. Swinging into wall? In front of children? Really?

        I assumed the dude grabbed it as it was flying out with the chip and just slammed it quickly without much thought. He might have a horrible day/week, just wanted to have some chippies and this happened. Meh. 🤷
