Twiglet@feddit.ukto World News@lemmy.world•Iceland: Police shoot 1st polar bear sighted in yearsEnglish22·9 months agoPolar bears aren’t native there, and you have no idea what the natural area is like. It’s an island built on fishing, all the towns are on the coast, where the bears would like to hunt. Polar bears don’t live there, because it’s not an environment that can sustain them, and the biggest native wild animal is the arctic fox. Rest is all farm animals with some reindeer introduced to the highlands in the 70’s for game/sport hunting.
You’re arguing from pure ignorance.
Twiglet@feddit.ukto World News@lemmy.world•Iceland: Police shoot 1st polar bear sighted in yearsEnglish41·9 months agoSo you want a non-native animal with no suitable habitat and no food source other than humans to be given special preferential treatment over the humans that happen to live there, allowing it to roam and maul at it’s leisure while people politely try to shoo it away from the child buffet?
You have zero context and zero knowledge of the situation, the country or that environment but sit there on your high horse pretending to be morally superior to the people in actual mortal danger.
Twiglet@feddit.ukto News@lemmy.world•Google pulls the plug on uBlock Origin, leaving over 30 million Chrome users susceptible to intrusive ads9·10 months agoYep, the main reason I started using adblockers in the first place is because I was tired of the weekly disinfection routine of my pc.
Hiding ads wasn’t my main motivation to start with, I just wanted to keep my system safe and shit free.
I started using adblockers when I got tired of scraping my PC clean of malware every week, but kept YouTube whitelisted. The third time they tried to show me a 27 minute ad I gave up and blocked them too.
