Just stop eating fish.
No need for nets.
stop eating all animals tbh.
Checked the username, can confirm. Very annoying.
If you call that one comment "very annoying" you need to get more used to reading opinions you don't agree with. That was the shortest, least preachy thing ever.
Are you...ok? Do you really not understand that this was a polite wink at the other person's username?
Being a programmer isn't an excuse for having zero concept of normal conversation.
Actually you are desensitized to manic behaviour. they're the one behaving like a maniac. You got triggered by a single comment so much you had to go and lookup a persons' history. Are you intentionally looking for a fight just because there are crazy vegans out there? This person was reasonable and did suggest something that is true. We can give up eating meat. You can disagree.. but sheesh? stalking their profile?
edit: noticed you are not the original commenter. I meant the person who replied to parent comment, not you.
In the same way I believe they made an incredibly unnecessary reference to being an "annoying vegan" on a comment utterly unannoying, I believe you've made a really stereotypical reference to my profession on something totally unrelated. Yes. I am okay. Are you?
Fair.
They just wanted to point out they noticed the username somehow.
No, that would inconvenience me. I would prefer to virtue signal. /s
did you try that?
There was no trying. I just did it.
it didn't work
It did a tiny percentage. We'll need more people to get a bigger percentage.
it's not clear it did anything at all.
It's not like somebody is throwing nets in the water because I don't eat fish.
they don't care whether you eat fish. they're throwing the nets regardless.
Common misconception. It's simple supply and demand. Do you think people would be destroying the seas if nobody would pay them for it?
supply and demand is a theory about price discovery. it has no bearing on this discussion.
That's not so simple. Subsistence fishing is the sole means of livelihood and self-sustenance for a significant global population. It provides essential food security and supports local economies, particularly in coastal and island communities. This traditional practice ensures families have direct access to nutritious seafood, often using simple, low-cost methods. It is crucial for maintaining resilience in the face of environmental and economic challenges.
There's only a very small amount of humans living off fishing. If those were the only ones, there would be no problems. These people do not justify any fishing for people who don't need fish to survive.
Yes. Yes I did.
it didn't work
Why?
looks like this comic is saying it's not working. do you have some evidence it is?
Bud we were talking about not eating fish. The question was why you think not eating fish would be ineffective at solving this problem.
Or..are you literally just saying that 1 person not eating fish won't stop fishing? Cause if so, I really should just block you.
I really should just block you.
please, do
Pick up an economics textbook
this is handwaiving, not evidence
You also used a comic as "evidence" literally one message up. you have no legs.
you have presented no evidence at all.
