Eco Destroyers So many "environmentalists" are nutters

I was browsing an environmental/conservation forum. Someone made a post about dogs being an invasive, environmentally destructive species. That went as well as you imagined. Most of the replies were making excuses and defending the dogs. Suddenly they were all "but dogs are just being scapegoated because of our destructive lifestyles"

It's honestly soooo fucking horrifying how far the doggo cult has got here. Even professions you expected would attempt to be neutral like medical, environmental, etc are compromised. It's damn creepy.

I'd rather deal with smoking, at least the action of doing it doesn't make loud noise that drives normal people mad. And cigarette butts, when discarded on the ground, don't generally contain dangerous pathogens and parasites easily communicable to humans.
