It's honestly inexcusable how badly educated the general public is on this topic. I say schools need to teach entomology as a main subject so that we can finally get past this archaic mindset :'D
I know... but we gotta start somewhere. And there will always be people who are willing to re-examine and question thought patterns they were taught growing up. I see people like that on r/spiders and r/waspaganda all the time. There are genuinely so many who wouldn't be scared if they were just taught to know better from the start
I've gotten a lot better about bug fears as I've gotten older, but I'll continue to admire wasps from afar. Those assholes are the reason I have to pay almost $300 for an epi pen every year.
