China has more billionaires than we do and complete dictatorial control over a population that has zero civil rights.

Also in existence are the Chinese and Indian oligarchies currently oppressing over a billion people. Not to mention fighting over a meaningless dumb border.

Invading the ancestors descendants of wage slaves whose dead imperial overlords drew some maps is almost as dumb as fighting over those maps.

Modern China and India have their own homegrown oligarchies exercising levels of oppression that put the British imperials to shame.

My cat is old, too, and he mostly doesn’t kill anything when I let him in the backyard. But that is not the norm for most cats, and people need to be aware.

Nobody is denying that cats are wild animals. The point is that they are uniquely capable hunters that can unilaterally exterminate the small fauna in a region.

I mean maybe your cat in particular is lazy and doesn’t hunt, but most cats do. For instance, house-cats kill 3.7 billion birds annually.

Cats absolutely decimate populations of small fauna. They’re an ecological disaster. Either keep your cat indoors or don’t get one. You are not entitled to own a living creature; it’s a privilege that must be exercised with consideration.

I love cats. I wish I could have more of them, but I can’t for all these reasons.
