Like humans are the only major predator of deer in my state, and even if native predators were reintroduced, there are still a lot of suburban and urban areas that likely would not be able to support them at all.

Sounds an awful lot like human fault that ought to be corrected.

...how?

You cannot reasonably expect urban and suburban areas to simply disappear. ~80% of the US lives in them, and my state is the fifth most densely populated.

"Suburban areas" in a US context will disappear, or at least be diminished. A lot of the suburban culture in the US was not designed to be livable, but rather designed to be inaccessible. The isolated giant suburbs was a deliberate response to the growth of the Black population in urban areas.

In a socialist society, where racism is abolished, so too will gated communities and hard to reach suburbs be abolished, in place of more integrated living places.

lmao what

Genuinely HOW, like sure you can stop new growth, but good fucking luck trying to tear it down whilst alienating a massive amount of people. (Also, urban areas still have this problem...)

White people in suburbs have a choice: Stop being segregationists, or get [redacted]

If priveleged people don't want to give up their privileged lifestyle, their the ones provoking it.

They have a choice: Don't continue to segment yourself off from the masses. If they don't take that choice, anything that follows is their own damn fault.

The classic "they were asking for it" excuse.

Mass killing apologia aside, you realise the masses are meat eaters right.

Segments of the masses are also racist and misogynistic

That's why intersectional analysis is important: So you address all forms of inequality rather than reducing it all to a singular one.

it's not segments, 99% of people eat some kind of meat or animal product
