Hello comrades. I don't think I've ever posted a particular question on this site but I've been thinking a lot recently about zoos. Specifically should they exist? Are they a good idea to have them while the world is being destroyed by capitalism? Should they exist after the revolution?

    Idealism, top to bottom, and a fundamental misunderstanding of what resources are currently available to conservationists, what zoos do, and what animal domestication is.

    I mean, imagine saying we need to exterminate invasive species but also that pets need to be "reintroduced" to the wild (the dogs would starve and the cats would be an awful invasive species as they already are in many places).
