>ywn see a flock of beautiful carolina parakeets because jackasses a century ago hunted them to extinction
this shit sucks man

>>5031012 (OP)
what were they even hunting them for? parakeets aren't good eatin

>>5031012 (OP)
You could've seen adorable sea minks swimming along the Atlantic coast but faggot hunters killed them off to sell their pelts

>>5031014
Their feathers. Supposedly they were poisonous to eat.

>come across a giant forest of giant trees unlike anything else on earth
>let's get to loggin' boys lmao
insane to think only 4% of the original redwoods remain.
insane to think no one thought to stop cutting down the one of a kind trees until the 1970s.
insane to thing when logging companies heard that congress was going to make the remaining redwoods federally protected land, they quadrupled their logging efforts.
humans are so demonic its unreal.

>>5031488
muh dominion, muh self deifucation

>>5031422
wasnt it because they were too noisy?

>>5031488
>>5031502
>demonic
its god it seems. which doesnt exist btw
religion is the same type of mental illness that made men kill off the great auk - superstition

>>5031488
>housing needs to be more expensive because this giant stick looks cool
>humans are demonic
No irony there

>>5031507
there are superstitions that are somewhat compatible modern views of nature or animals (buddhism/animism like shinto) and then there are semitic cults where god is nothing like creation, cannot be found in creation (ie, nature) and nothing in creation is "sacred" like god is

>>5031515

i think you need to look up what irony is too, sweetie.

tough talk from someone permanently attached to a construct of petroleum derivatives and rare earth metals

are you sure your real issue isnt your tiny penis and congenital homosexuality?

i think big trees are lame and trees should be smaller

This repeat of paleoschizo/gay vegan schizos faggotry was debunked already. Starting here.

Redwood logging was running at a sustainable rate.

That comic is right
History of activism:

>heh dumb fuck religious people believing in a sky daddy with no evidence
>I, the enlightened one, belive in SCIENCE based on HARD FACTS.
>like the big bang, dark matter, black holes, the holocaust, nuclear weaponry (above ground testing banned when home film cameras became popular, Japan had p radiation damage)

You have just as much faith as religious people, but think you are superior for placing it in different areas.

>>5031540
*Japan had 0 radiation damage
The list of "science" people believe in is endless, and it's all based on faith. There could be gnomes powering your computer, and 99% of people would never know. When's the last time you cut open a lithium battery?

>>5031540
this is foolish because of course a materialist/empiricist believes those things, they are the most likely scenarios in a world devoid of the supernatural. it's not outrageous for the people with this worldview to demand some sort of empirical measurement or 'proofs' for religious mythos
if someone believed the world is perched on a turtle's back when empiricism can prove otherwise, they are left with nothing to appeal to but superstition

>>5031535
>under white american control industry wasnt so bad
yeah...

>>5031526
Wasnt society improved somewhat by people who refused to participate in the system - through violent uprising?

>>5031540
Oh look a disinfo-fed retard. Let me guess, the earth is flat and no one went to the moon but china might have?

>>5031545
The genocide of native bovids was necessary and not really a big deal. Wolves deserved it too.

Only some parts of the environment are that great. Others can get fucked.

I never said that

Stanley Kubricks daughter released a video tape after his death where he talked about "his friend" faking a moon landing.

I accept your concession. Please find me evidence if radioactive contamination in Japan.

>>5031544
>materialism
Then the very fact that millions of people people worship Jesus as divine is evidence of that, right? If people are so easily tricked then why doesn't everyone make their own cult that lasts thousands of years?

"Empircisits" just follow a different religion, the religion of "WAOW SUPER SMART SCIENCE MAN TOLD ME ITS REAL." Meanwhile 50% of psychology papers can't be replicated, and people think 200 yea role inventions like the automobile/telephone are "advanced technology"

>>5031566
>hes a moonie and nuke denier
pfahahahahahahahahaha fell for the propaganda did you retard

*200 year old inventions

If science men are so smart. Why has cancer had no progress in a century of study? Fact is scientists don't know shit. They are just stroking their own egos about how they are better than others, because they looked in a microscope. "Science" is the religion for midwits.

>>5031569
See this retard im replying to? This is a creature so retarded there is nothing to dispute. Just call it a retard and move on.

>>5031570
Make sure you trust the science, and take your covid shots + boosters. Don't forget yearly flu vaccination. You need to top up on aluminum and mercury injections. :)

>point out psychology isn't a field of science
>Mr I heckin love science completely ignores I'm debunking his religion
You can't make this shit up. It was never about discerning objective reality. Don't forget your covid boosters!

>>5031569
a literal billion people are also hindu idolators and vedic religions predate abrahamism by thousands of years and claim miracles happen in their temples every day
>WAOW SUPER SMART SCIENCE MAN TOLD ME ITS REAL
>can't be replicated
the replication crisis is different from you having to convince a materialist away from his position
>200 yea role inventions like the automobile/telephone are "advanced technology"
photos, video, and the internet have revolutionized the way humans process information
fact is you cling to a dying flame, abrahamism is and was not a bulwark against degeneracy/liberalism, it already lost before video/internet was widespread. all the thirdies being given internet access has been shown to make them significantly less religious, there is an unavoidable secular wave coming your way

>>5031573
Lol retard

>>5031578
>>5031583
OK guys make sure to take your covid shots + boosters. Don't forget yearly flu shots. Put your money where your mouth is :)

>>5031587
I didn't feel it was necessary to take anything, and even ultranormalfag liberal celebrities were against the jab like chet hanks. next strawman?

I gave you the rope. You hung yourself. Now you can go do it non-metaphorically too.

Many such cases

>>5031012 (OP)
thylacine my beloved
it's a fairly common belief in tasmania that they're still around in the more remote parts but the few people that live out there keep it under wraps because if there were ever any credible rumours or sightings the mining companies would send people in to massacre them to prevent any land being closed off to resource extraction by being set aside to conserve them

>>5031502
Where's that quote from?

>>5031502
>muh dominion
hilarious because the dominion command was god telling adam to watch over the garden and tend to it so it would always be ready for god to enjoy, not cut everything down and pave it over
dominion implies stewardship not ownership despite what american wahabbi christians believe

Yeah, those people totally have more value than nature.

>>5031599
Redwood logging was sustainable until liberals wanted it banned, then charles hurlitz bought it all up (cant miss once in a lifetime shekels)

we now know the liberals were in on it

>>5031012 (OP)
The insane fact is that the last carolina parakeets are probably killed in germany, where escaped birds established a small wild population.

>>5031012 (OP)
Yes I will.

>>5031507
All christians are actually atheists. That's why they can't imagine people worshipping Nature.

>>5031811
Hi. GEOM here. I destroy all humans that think this way in the future.

>>5031811
You'd think all these "Humanity first" types would be people constantly spouting and asking for egalitarian and humanitarian causes like free college and healthcare, right?

Ironically, there's an anti-animal abuse law in Deuteronomy.
>25:4 Thou shalt not muzzle the ox when he treadeth out the grain.

>>5031599
Yup these kinds of threads always remind you of the election tourists that have seeped and oozed onto every board like an uncontained chemical spill. They love to tout how much they love rural living and nature but as soon as they get whiff of the ability to make money on a patch of land they spread open their asshole, gleefully ask "how much?" and sell it to the highest bidding company for them to do as they please with. Endangered speci...redwood tre...the fuck you talking about? Shut up with that commie talk!

no matter the era, the NPC never changes
aphantasia riddled and completely moderates to selfish deeds.

>>5032574
>Le NPCs
The bison were near-eradicated to open up range land for more profitable cattle and force the native savages to get out of our way and civilize or fade into history.

And it didn't matter. Imagine being an animist pagan or a "poetic type" who worships untouched nature. Man is nature. We are free to shape it into something that better serves our needs.

Over a century since the bison cull and the earth is fine
Wolves vanished and everything was fine. Just less bushy.

>>5032529

only some nature is really that good. like, no one cares if hyenas die.

Self-absorption is not a survival strategy. It's solipsism. You are not the only thing in this universe.

durr... highways are nature! duuuuhhhh cities are nature! duuuurrrr? airplanes are nature!

>>5032999
Nature can and will destroy itself, the history of life on our planet has multiple global cataclysms caused by organisms. The difference is humans can sometimes choose to stop themselves. The catch is that we're much better at destruction than most.

That pic is not as good of an example that you think it is, anon. Those Bison were not native to the area and the local native population slaughtered them in droves for the literal sake of it.

>>5031014
Unironically to get their feathers for women's hats.

>>5034764

>damn white people turning trees into buildings and replacing native animals with livestock
>y u honkies gotta have advanced civilization n sheeit

>>5034789
Why not just use advanced white, uh, "animal husbandry" know-how to domesticate the plants and animals that were already here and adapted to the ecology? You got a zebra to let someome ride it, you can do anything!

>>5034792
>you have to redo 10,000 years of work because muh native animals
The end result would be the same retard

>>5034793
It took that long in EVROPA because it took that long to understand breed plasticity. You could smash and slam the mighty moose in a few generations nowadays.

>>5034799
It took that long because the end result no longer resembles any natural animal. They are borderline braindead wheat chaff conversion machines on the vast track to being self replicating meat vats.

It is far better to kill the bison that are in the way than abandon the same project and start over because of some irrational nativism. Either way the cattle we rear are not part of the original ecology. They are part of a modified ecology.

>>5034764
Factually incorrect. Also there was literally no practical reason for killing all the bison beyond greed and the desire to genocide the native Americans. "Every dead bison is a dead Indian"
The slaughter of the bison was plain and simple pure evil.

>>5035016
it was necessary

sadly we didnt stay the course

>>5035018
If your society ever finds it necessary to murder an entire species or race you should just kill yourself and spare the world the shame of having birthed you

>>5035021
you sound trans.

>>5035023
And you sound jewish

>>5035021
My ancestors were justified in what they did. After all, they did preserve enough bison to continue the species.

>>5035030

Oh? I'm sorry, that completely excuses white people piling their skulls into a massive pyramid, throwing away 90% of the carcasses and genociding them all. My bad.
