    A planet is a pen without fences. You just have to expand your perspective. You’ve obviously never interacted with a farmer in your life if you’ve never heard them brag about how many animals they have on the property. And those are just the ones they can count. Im sure some crazy farmer somewhere in India would be mad proud of how many rats he’s got running around. They’re holy in certain parts.

    The pic says “of all the mammals on earth”. It’s exactly as i said with the pen, just scaled up to a 3d spherical planetary sized pen. The numbers I’m talking about don’t change.

    There are WAY more rats than cows. Period. They’re on every continent except Antarctica, and there might be some weird subterranean prehistoric voles huddled around a hydrothermal vent pool or some shit.

    OP just needs to add a qualifier to the graphic. Anything along the lines of “with respect to biomass” right at the start

    Okay, so you have 240 rats and one cow in a pen on a farm. How many mammals are in the pen?

    This survey would answer that the pen is 90% cow and 10% rat by weight, therefore there are 9 times as many cows as there are rats.

    In reality land, where the rest of us live, we would say that there are 241 mammals in the pen and only 1 of them is a cow.

    You see why I’m calling bullshit by the way this is worded?







  • Americans don’t think lmfao especially the police. Did you know that it is legal to discriminate against applicants to the police if they are too smart? There’s whole court cases about this. Apparently, the argument is that people who are smarter will be less obedient when given an order because they might just employ some critical thinking skills instead of blindly following directions.

    Police don’t want thinkers. They might be “bored” or “dissatisfied” when they figure out they’re nothing but bullies to keep the citizens in line.

    So no, if you see a cop in riot gear at a protest, do not expect a thinking, feeling, or compassionate human being. A cop in riot gear is a goon through and through, and a trusted goon at that. Goons only understand force, and if you show them more force than they’re prepared to handle, their core programming as self serving cowards will come to the surface. Self serving cowards are people who can be salvaged. Goons are not.
