I think bringing up "it/its" pronouns is a good test for people who claim to be "trans allies" because it so easily weeds out the people who are only doing it superficially. I've seen so many people who will post "Punch your local TERF #transrightsarehumanrights" and then turn around and be like "If someone says they go by 'it/its' pronouns it's actually good to misgender them because they're just teenager trenders"
Putting the rant here instead of on the forum where it wouldn't probably do any good:
Actually, honeybees *do* compete with native bees.*
Actually, bumblebees and other native bee species can be *more* effective pollinators for some crops than honey bees.** Particularly the ones they evolved with. Funny that.
Actually, not all bumblebees are solitary. Many species have colonies, though admittedly much smaller than honeybee colonies.
Actually, bumblebees and other native bee species are used commercially, and that's a mixed bag as far as conservation goes. A simple search will show you this, if you aren't being intentionally obtuse.
There is so much to learn about native bees. Learning about honeybees does not actually make you knowledgeable about all bees. Native bees are crucial to our ecosystems and biodiversity, and are worth supporting.

If the Garfield movie doesn’t live up to my expectations I’m gonna fucking cry actually.
Watching something about conspiracy theories like:
-that’s nazi propaganda
-that’s been proven to be not true
-you might be on to something, but you need to bring it back about two or three notches
