i have to remember that "you should kill them with hammers" is not normal advice to give bc every time someone says they dont like someone else all i can think of to say is you should kill them with hammers.

Actually your society is the freaks for shooting everything that moves and burning half your "nature reserves" every year so that upperclass dandies can eat leaded pheasant. North Americans are the well adjusted ones here, your country has become a desolate suburban lawn in island form

i know bad faith takes on the bad faith website are par for the course but like. you do realise there haven’t been wolves in the UK since the 16th century. There haven’t been bears in the UK since around 500AD. There haven’t been lynx in the UK for around 1,300 years. In other words: since before the USA was even a country. That’s not a gotcha, it’s just like. The UK is roughly the size of Oregon state (and Oregon has 6% of the UK’s population) so of course a newer country with hundreds of times the landmass and vast swathes of wilderness would have greater biodiversity just from the get-go, but the extinction of our major predators is not recent history. It’s really not about upperclass dandies (and frankly the USA has just as much of a questionable culture surrounding hunting & associated firearms as we do...) it’s just. You’re comparing apples and oranges here and trying to make a whole thing of it.

also: rewilding efforts in the UK are very much a thing.

Stink pits – the disgusting reality of 21st century grouse moor management

Raptor Persecution UK

The ecocide is still ongoing in the UK sadly and many people in power have ties to these practices or call it tradition, and it's considerably worse and more nature depleted than continental europe.

Humans inhabited North America for tens of thousands of years and the industrial purge of fauna and logging didn't happen until the very same people we're both I'm assuming descended from arrived here. Since then North America has tried to embrace more conservation efforts (well at least as radical as is allowed within neoliberalism) and we still have brainrot over wolves but at least we don't have members of parliament fearmongering over the presence of eagles and our animal shelters won't deny adoption to people who refuse to let their cats free roam outside.

North American hunting and British hunting are very different industries, we don't farm raise game to be released for shooting or heavily interfere with the ecosystem of hunting grounds anywhere to the extent of moorland management. We have people pissy about wolves potentially eating the deer hunters want to shoot but we don't have gamekeepers systemically eradicating any other species that might possibly compete with game, in general many hunters here have a more nuanced understanding of harvesting responsibly and conservation.

Both our countries suck ass (I am Canadian) but the UK is objectively farther behind if a bobcat sparks debate over whether they are too dangerous and controversial to reintroduce

I will add a slight correction that game farms in the United States are a thing, usually it's a large penned acreage full of feral sheep or farmed deer, but the major difference as far as I can tell is that apparently in the UK if you own the land you can basically do whatever you want on that private property and nobody really does anything about it?

That very much does not happen here. It doesn't matter if you personally own the acreage, if you're caught poaching bears or killing eagles on it you WILL get your ass nailed for it. The game warden has the power to enforce that even on private land.

There was a guy in the next town over who didn't even kill an eagle, he just cut down a bunch of trees around an eagle nest, which stressed them out to the point they abandoned their chicks, and he was charged with a crime as if he'd purposefully gone after them. And that was the accidental destruction of one nest on a farm he owned.

If you tried shooting eagles or raptors on a pheasant hunting lodge land parcel in South Dakota your guide would probably punch you in the mouth.

Ke Huy Quan: We started shooting [Everything Everywhere All At Once] three years ago. Shot all the way [to the end] with the last day to go.

Ke Huy Quan: Got shut down for the pandemic, [didn't] regroup [until] eight months later, [and] finished the movie.

Ke Huy Quan: During that entire time, I was at home trying to stay safe like everybody. My agent was sending me all these auditions. And I was sending in self-tapes.

Ke Huy Quan: I could not get a single job. This was in 2021. And I was so nervous. I was about to lose my health insurance.

Ke Huy Quan: So, I call my agent, and I say, "Can you _please_ get me anything? It doesn't matter."

Ke Huy Quan: "I just need one job to make the minimum requirement, so I can qualify for health insurance the following year."

Ke Huy Quan: I could not get one single job.

Ke Huy Quan: And sure enough, 2021 came and went. Lost my health insurance.

WHY THEY STRIKE: Ke Huy Quan (SAG), 2023 Winner of the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor for his performance in Everything Everywhere All At Once

Roughly 87% of members earn less than the minimum requirement of $26,000 yearly, making them ineligible for health coverage through the union. The studios' refusal to pay union members a living wage and share their streaming revenues via residuals has made this a difficult ask for performers nationwide. For reference, "in most jobs, that [amount] would be considered a part-time job," according to SAG-AFTRA President Fran Drescher.
