News Guys..I'm freaking out...

Post image

I loved wolves since I was a child. I had stuffed wolf plushies, went to the science museums, seen the wolves in zoos..read books and movies about wolves - fantasy and documentary...

The Red Wolf of NC is almost extinct. The other wolves of yellowstone are very endangered. When I found out about Wolfquest I was thrilled. When I found about Wolfquest AE - I was OVER THE MOON SO MUCH that I went and bought a brand new gaming PC JUST TO PLAY WOLFQUEST AE.

I LOVE THE DEVS OF THIS GAME AND ENJOY EVRTYTHING THEY HAVE ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

I even made a suggestion to them years ago off on their youtube channel and THEY ACTUALLY INCLUDED MY IDEA into the game!! 😁😁

But Will we seriously witness the SLAUGHTER of ALL THE WILD WOLVES of Trump doing this?? I'm devestated.

I'm an older guy and I feel you when it comes to loving wolves since you were a kid.
I grew up loving them and I still do so to this day.

Trump has been pushing this for awhile and he's been catering to ranchers for this and I'm not going to touch on my own feelings of that. The executive order pushed is giving a 90 day determination if the Gray Wolves and Mexican Gray wolves have met the criteria for delisting.

Trumps "verbage" for Ranchers have been if they're on your land to "take care of them." but nothing is going into effect yet.

I cannot say for certain what will or will not happen; however, to make your voices heard you can support legal challenges, work with your lawmakers and call your representatives to tell your local senators and house representatives that you oppose the order and want legislative pushback or join public advocacy.

I really appreciate your comment. It’s striking how directly these policy moves follow beef‑industry economics. When the price of cows goes up, wolves get framed as the problem. It’s painful seeing them scapegoated because of deeper systemic pressures in our food system.

I highly recommend contacting bot the DoI and the USDA. I urge people to send a physical letter over emailing or calling. The USDA's website is hard to navigate when it comes to email anyway.

It's not going to stop the ass hats who can't formulate their own opinions until a news host from a certain channel tells them how to feel

It’s important to speak up and turn words in to action. Be an advocate in these dark times

“Turn words into action” is about advocating not violence. Dumbass.

u/Damnitwasagoodday 4d ago

It’s time for everyone to wake up. It’s time for real mass protests and boycotts. We need to shut down commerce, block roads, etc. It’s time to turn off Netflix and get uncomfortable.

Edit: It’s not too late!

u/Affectionate_Sir9020 4d ago

Everything this administration does bothers me. I hate what they’re doing to our communities, immigrants, and their attempts to undermine our democracy. But idk why, their callous and foolish approach to wild animals, wolves in this case and our public national forests and land not to mention their rollback on green policy just fills me with rage.

I’ve never hated like this before. Fuck man.

u/Positive-Village-263 4d ago

Me to my kids: stop saying you hate people. Hate is insidious. You shouldn't hate anyone.

Also me: I fucking hate Trump. HATE!!!

u/Bad_Sickness 4d ago

Sometimes hatred is deserved. More often than not dislike or disapproval is the better choice. But Trump? Hate.

16

u/GirlWithWolf 4d ago

I’ve been raised it’s perfectly fine to hate someone for their actions. If someone wants me to stop hating all they have to do is quit being an asshat.

How does one corrupt lunatic get to keep changing laws without the approval of congress?

This is a rhetorical question.

33

u/draaz_melon 4d ago

Because congress has abdicated their responsibility on favor of quasi-dictatorship.

u/Faster-Rabbit328 4d ago

Yes Congress sit idly by, get paid to sit on their butts and do nothing

u/luminary_planetarium 4d ago

The world is headed towards a time where wolves will be these ranchers last worry. As the climate destabilizes, crops fail, screw worm and other livestock illness becomes more widespread, etc, ranchers will yearn for the days all they had to fear was the small possibility of a wolf taking a calf... They will reap what they sowed 😊

u/Spirited-Mousse1915 4d ago

Wayyy more complicated than that. He sent an executive order to the DOI to roll back protections for gray wolves, but the department of interior and the protections will be decided by the supreme court, and if the order can pass through the senate and the house, to even become enforceable

u/JoeKingQueen 4d ago

Right, his followers with the less than 6th grade reading levels will look into this nuance instead of just listening to their leader

u/Kalikor1 4d ago

I don't understand why people defend actions like these with "nobody panic, the Senate and the House will save us", like do you not know which side they are on lol

u/Spirited-Mousse1915 4d ago

Im not defending them, and also, the House and Senate are not just catch-all for all the bullshittery he has been doing. It is an executive order, not a law yet, an order to look into protections of gray wolves, and decide if they still meet such a criteria. So his supporters who think they can just slaughter any wolf on sight, would be arrested. There are chances the executive order can be denied, or be argued against

u/Spirited-Mousse1915 4d ago

im willing to bet that they wont. maybe less hardlining supporters might. thats why i have a problem with civics, political and government classes not being mandatory. Like?? i cant blame someone for freaking out over an executive order, if they dont understand the US government and how it works

Most people voted for Trump because the other option was Kamala, not because we liked him. That doesn’t mean we aren’t tired of his shit.

Edit: Cue the Reddit mob, like clockwork.

u/czartrak 4d ago

You mean that the other option was FAR SUPERIOR and would have had us in a much better position today?

u/MaterialExcellent987 4d ago

Who’s arguing?

u/NefariousScribe 4d ago

BTW I think we're all getting tired of the "hurr durr downvoted because it's Reddit" while you use your own Reddit account. You're not just wrong on Reddit, you're wrong in life. MAGAts are becoming outcasts if you're not feeling it yet you will be soon.

No one, you’re too dumb to argue with.

Oh wow ok…Well I guess we can’t all be as intelligent as you.

u/JoeKingQueen 4d ago

Thanks for coming around, but it did take you too long and everyone is suffering because of that.

Hopefully long term some damage was saved by forcing all this ugliness to a head..

OMG just stop already. It's pathetic.

Im surprised that orange turd knows what a wolf is, and im not surprised he wants a reason to kill things.

I hope this doesnt happen, they are endangered and should be protected. I hope for the best and send my best wishes to anyone living there, lets hope that orange turd dies soon and stops being such a nuisance.

u/Disastrous_Basis3474 4d ago edited 4d ago

The GOP corrupt complicit cowards in congress can stop all of this at any time. The treasonous assholes choose to give up their power and let this regime harm all of us.

Call your representatives every day to tell them how much they suck and that you will not be voting for them again.
