Peoples general attitude towards insects and torturing the "bad" ones and how normalized and fine it's perceived as really fucking disgusts me. I was doomscrolling twitter and I came across a retweet of somebody nabbing a deaths head hawkmoth and THROWING INTO BOILING OIL and the retweet was just "Oh wow this is le evil bug that le steals honey so actually just fucking brutally killing it is fine and dandy" do these fucking braindead wretched people know how fucking nature works? At all? Death's head Hawkmoths aren't even invasive and hell even if they were you there should be no fucking circumstances where you are throwing one in boiling oil and recording it for a fucking internet clip. It's akin to grabbing a snake eating a birds eggs and throwing it in a bot of boiling oil but I'm pretty sure a post of that happening wouldn't get fucking 41k likes now would it. But no because insects are le icky and le gross and le weird horribly fucking maiming and torturing them is actually fine, not completely demented and horrifying.
