I hate these stupid ass motherfuckers. Yellowjackets will leave you alone if you leave them alone, simple as that.
I have a nest of them in my garden currently, they took over a compost bin. I went right up to them and was fucking around with the compost before realizing they were there. They started swarming so I immediately stopped moving, then after a few seconds, slowly took my hand out, waited a few more seconds, then put the lid back on the bin and secured it, then slowly backed away. Didn't get stung at all even though I basically touched some of them and messed with their shelter.
But no these Big Tough Manly Men™ on reddit.com are so scared of them that they will burn them alive, drown them, stomp on them, poison them, etc. Fucking pathetic.
ETA: Read up, libs

The absolute arrogance to complain about the biosphere existing while we're in the midst of an anthropogenic climate crisis and a mass extinction is just unreal. I'd tell you to touch grass, but I genuinely don't want to subject grass to that kind of toxicity.
