A circle jerk of violent xenophobic fascists stole a holy symbol from a race of people they try to convince themselves are lesser than them. This flag is way more reflective of Nazi than anything lifted from Hinduism.
The swastika wasn’t owned by Hindus. It’s not even "owned’ by Dharmic religions in general. It was simply a very popular symbol that could be found in basically all cultures, including Native American cultures.
Do you know what event actually popularized it the most in Europe and directly led to it being co-opted for hate?
Schliemann’s discovery and excavation of the city of Troy, which included nearly two thousand depictions of the swastika.
I’m not gonna lie I wondered about my dog being a fascist. It will definitely be a an interesting world. Where I and anyone who thinks that they are a great owner would be made an example for our shortcomings. I mean dog to human ageing is 7 to 1 years. If I were in such a constrain I’ll kill the person who would make me wait for stealing from my lifetime.
Actually feeding bread or any other human food is not good for Ducks/Gease etc. So please do not feed them human food. It really makes me angry and shows only ignorance towards animals.
It doesn’t really have any nutritional value for them but it fills them up so they don’t eat as much of the things that they should be eating to get proper nutrition.
Honestly I think the hate for bread is a little out of hand. Is it nutritious? No, but it’s not poison either. As long as it’s only a small part of their diet it’s not hurting anything.
I have a pet bird and 90% of her diet is nutritionally dense foods, but she still gets nibbles of bread and tortillas and so forth because small amounts of treats are perfectly fine. Same concept.
I mean…yeah? Most people are ignorant of things like this because they don’t know any better. I can’t be particularly upset at some random park goer that doesn’t know all the nutritional needs of a duck, because why would I assume that’s knowledge they would have? Feeding ducks bread is sort-of ingrained in the public mind, it will take education and time to undo that.
I’ve seen signs up at some parks lately that explain this to people, and that’s a start, but they need to be more widespread, and it will take time.
