Immediately stomp an insect when they see one inside the house. It’s like a reflex or impulse and honestly it’s kinda scary seeing an otherwise nice person just stomp an insect or spider or whatever in cold blood almost instantaneously. There’s like no thought or contemplation, it’s just see the insect, and then immediately stomp it.

Like holy shit what did that little critter do to you? Just let it be.

EDIT: Holy fuck the responses. I guess many didn’t actually read what I wrote. I wrote that people who “immediately stomp” without “thought or contemplation” have fash tendencies and I get accused of fashjacketing. Ugh whatever. To those who had thoughtful responses (e.g. if you feel something stinging your skin and swat it with your hand, or if you have an infestation issue in your house, etc.), I gotta say those make sense and I hear you all the way (and even in those cases it’s not like there’s a kneejerk intentional kill response, it’s usually accidental or done after careful deliberation). But to the ones complaining about fashjacketing, maybe do some self crit for fuck’s sake. You sound exactly like the fucking man vs bear defender types or a white fragility type, Jesus… It makes me actually think you do have fash tendencies tbh.

    This post was made in the politics comm. If it had been made in /c/vegan or /c/chapotraphouse or /c/chat it would be read differently. In the context of the politics comm it reads as an earnest statement intended to be read at face value. The choice of venue shapes how the message is perceived. The post reads as a political statement that killing bugs reveals a person to have fascist character.

    I call complete cap on that. If anything this sounds like you trying to tone police based on “venue” or some ephemeral construct like that. “Oh I support your right to protest but do it in the rIGhT wAy!!” kinda shit. I see posts in all kinds of comms, including this one, that link behaviors with tendencies. Cuz you know, “everything is political” right? But with this all of a sudden come the “rules/regulations” BS? With all due respect, eff off with that shit.

    but this is not an appropriate way to present that view.

    Yup white moderate vibes… smh
