Hunting is nothing but a shitty vanity project by whites who have nothing else in their """""culture"""""" besides senseless death and vain overconsumption. You do not fucking need venison. If you want to clog your arteries with shitass red meat just go to the butcher or shitty walmart 200 miles away fro. Your hohse and buy it, dipshit. You can even buy game meat too. "B-but!!!" I hear you shitass liberal cuckhold dont tread on me dip-eating muzlzleloading meemaws and peepaws saying, "it costs so much!!!"

Wanna know what else costs so much? Guns, bullets, gas, hunting kicense, processing fees.. and youre not even guaranteed to get a deer with it! Lmao! "B-but.. my dad taught me to kill animals for no reason!!!!!!!"

Your dad was a shitass moron who probably beat yyou too. You shitty kidwestern ceramic demons have nothing else in your culture besuxes glutting yourself on the dead, be it minorities or animals.

You have no culture, you are a an abberation on this earth. Half the time yourw drunk while using guns! Nd you cant even find your deer afted you shoot it!!! Or you just fucking take the antlers and leVe the meat to rot!

"B-but it connects me with nature!"

One: nature that isn't YOURS, blanqui.

Two: FORAGE FOR MUSHROOMS, DUMMY! THEYRE BETTER FOR YOU!

Three: you are WHITE!!!! Spend your money on a shitty stanley cup oe the next funko pop. Youre jot a mountain man. Youre not a bushman. Youre not a fucking outdoorsman. You go out to kill an animal and heft your pig like body out huffing the entire way. Or you sit in your car and shoot from there and get your shitty faikson to drive his ATV you bought with money gktten from slave labor to pick it up as you smoke 5 packs and chew 4 tins of dip and eat 20 cheesebuegers you disgusting american abberation against humanity

    deer have pretty much no predators and there is more than enough of them to go around. youre recommending buying shit walmart meat from a meat factory instead? hilarious. hunting should be the only way people get meat.

      I don't reeeally want to get into this, but if suddenly every meat-eater with a gun roams the countryside in search of animals to hunt, you're going to see a lot of extinct species pretty quickly, I assume. Just say people shouldn't eat meat

            youre not allowed to do persistence hunting or anything you just have to run down the animal on foot and fight it with your hands or a rock and maybe rope and you only get one try

                  you don't stop in between. you just keep running at it until it falls over. you never stop running and if it stops running, you're doing it badly. once it does, you still have to beat it over the head with a rock or it will get back up and run away.

                  which is unrelated to the idea of solving the immediate problem of industrialized urban development creating unsustainable conditions for deer population explosion and then extinction, which requires ecological management of some sort to save the deer themselves. yes, that's because of a problem caused by capitalism, but nobody is talking about that. you and i are not discussing whether capitalism ethically creates the means and conditions for handling that ecological problem: it obviously does not. you're also not making an argument about the socioeconomics of the hunting industry, which absolutely exists, and serves people who are far far crueler to animals than the very wide set of people that would prefer to use the deer rather than kill and burn it.

                  i ask this as a general point to you, a member of this communist website to ponder: do you want to feel proud for owning me morally, or do you want to actually try to convince people that they shouldn't eat the deer, etc.? because you're not going to convince even good faith people of whatever you're arguing when you form your arguments like this. i might agree with all or most of your thoughts, but it's hard to tell when you're just angrily shouting at people.

                You're saying the ivory trade involves indiscriminate killing of animals and destroying their bodies totally, including the tusks/horns/etc? Not killing animals with the largest tusks/horns/etc. and selling that ivory?

                Also that the ivory trade would be marginally okay if the hunters and poachers ate a little elephant meat before sawing off its tusks? The elephant is dead no matter what. The reason for its death is the tusks.

                If the goal is indeed to indiscriminately kill animals to reduce their population, the solution isn't to create a market for artificial selective population pressure. This is why elephants are evolving to have smaller tusks: these are the ones that survive the gaze of ivory hunters.

                    I'm following your ethical logic. The killing itself is not bad, but how much you use the corpse. Doing nothing with it is bad. Doing something is better. Using all of it is best?

                    And the deer is dead no matter what. Why not use the body for something useful?

                    Because using it for something useful is what caused it to be dead in the first place

                Animals that die of disease are obviously not the same as healthy animals that are killed. If you kill a healthy deer and then just leave its body to rot, you are wasting the body.

                People eat roadkill. The animal is already dead. You might as well do something with the body.

    Counterpoint: whitetail deer are insanely overpopulated to the point that they’re spreading a prion disease.

    Maybe running an industrial scale drive and cull on that population would be nicer than being confronted with the absurdity of hunting culture, but it would also be orders of magnitude more expensive and unpopular.

    • Hatandwatch [she/her, comrade/them]

      Most overpopulations of animals is due to their predators having been hunted to or near extinction for the sake of agriculture or other human interests. You're justifying exploiting them based on man made conditions. And that's not to mention government subsidized breeding programs to inflate populations for hunting seasons.

      I'm not necessarily arguing against a solution, but be honest about the reason for the situation.

      • farting_weedman [none/use name]

        You’re right. Humans drove out the predators and created a new environment that makes their recovery to previous numbers and range impossible. People need to take responsibility for stewardship of the populations people have disrupted.

        I’m only familiar with the breeding programs in my state and the neighboring ones, but they’re all pretty tightly conducted by experts in the field of wildlife management (which is not just a jumped up job title for hicks). I don’t doubt that in some weird states they don’t care if you selectively breed 38 point bucks that can’t carry their heads high enough to look out for predators and release em into the wild, but the few I know of have restrictions on that type of selection.

        I’m sure if the deer were able to express themselves clearly and understood the options they’d choose captive bolt gun over being eaten alive after running and fighting to exhaustion.

        Reintroducing predators is also pretty universally disliked by the people who will eventually be in contact with them for good reason.

    I think what you are getting to is trophy hunting is for the bougie-wink .

    Shouldn't ban white people from ethically legally hunting for the sake of food. That should be everyone's right within a reasonable conservation limit. Thus the licenses. Yes trophy killing is excessive and can lead to population decline. Human's mcmansion obsession is destroying wild habitat.

    Think we are confusing trophy hunting for rich petite bougie peeps "look at the size of the racks on this buck!!!!", versus having a functional system that prioritizes native land rights and resource management as well as seasonal tags with specifics (i.e. so many doe, so many bucks, so many elderly) to keep populations from collapsing (deer island anyone?)

    For me I did a lot of fishing with my folks and friends for lots of invasive species, mainly pike and carp (fucking hell fish that they are) which alongside good bounties for other invasives (new zealand mud snails) with geo taging their locations can actually lead to great participation with the local ecology, its just that most people view hunting as it is because it is a vanity project for the rich.

    Also deer stands should be fucking illegal. You wanna hunt then get off your ass and track what you're after.
