It isn't inaccurate? He literally said you kill everything. Every snake, mole, mouse you kill them all.

His point that animals die in almost any human endeavor is accurate.

"Kill them all" is bullcrap

---

You kill everything that you can that gets in your way. The question, "How cute does an animal have to be before you care about it dying to feed you" is still this business end of the exchange.

I've repeatedly said the broad points are correct.

I've repeatedly said the "kill everything" claim is a gross exaggeration

Now you've one upped that with "kill everything you can that gets in your way".

Bullcrap.

You do the job you need to do. You kill weeds, you till the soil, you plant, you harvest. You don't intentionally kill non target species, including animals.

Can't tell you how many times I've stopped the tractor for a few seconds to let critters scurry out of the way. I'm such a softy that I've moved killdeer nests off the row.

Do I lose sleep over the few bugs, mice, snakes, etc that I accidentally kill? No. But I don't kill them on purpose

My language was imprecise. You are correct. You kill what you have to.

The funny thing is that I'm posting while the GPS steers the tractor.

Want to know what's dying? Rabbits. Want to know what's killing them? Hawks. There are a half dozen following me and pouncing on the bunnies I flush out.

Nature, circle of life, all that

Can y'all take your side argument about semantics and technicalities to DM?

I follow this thread for funny tweets and memes, not inane arguments where you argue who is more 'right' in an argument no one cares about.

Yikes. That reminds me of a story about some nature photographers or documentarians I heard about. They were showing the birth of baby sea turtles and then the run they then have to make to get to the surf. Except that in this particular instance it was a complete massacre because whatever kind of birds it is that get them were there in mass and literally none of them were making it. It got some bad that these guys quit filming and were scooping as many baby turtles as they could into their shirts and carrying them to the ocean.

I can see myself doing that.

That's adorable but the black one in the middle looks a little non-plussed.

Amusing, but inaccurate. Plowing doesn't kill but a small fraction of the animal population. Anything below about 4" is safe, anything able to move, will do so, and anything slow may or may not be harmed.

Broader point is correct, that no form of human activity is possible without some damage to some animal species. Also correct that animal rights activists focus on the cute animals, because it's easier to gin up outrage over a dead puppy than it is a dead mole rat

**** dem mole rats!!!

Electricity prices in Norway are set to reach around $1 per kwh.

At these prices it would cost $100 to fully charge a Tesla.

In other words it is cheaper to fill up a tank of petrol, even with these crazy petrol prices.

So what is the point of an electric car?

Well there goes that idea out the window...

Why doesn't everyone understand that saving the world has costs...

Those morons can pay 10x the cost of electricity to charge their EVs produced with NIMBY batteries and try to argue that they are somehow saving the earth.

Finally, a sensible use of Covid masks!
