What if the fish is trans
As a vegan, cringe
That’s an unsettling message. Please stick to a more limited number of type faces.
as a fish myself, this offends me
Internet fishing is fun.
Because fishing is the only thing a lot of these chud idiots can actually do and succeed at, because it literally requires nothing but putting a worm on a hook and throwing it in the water…and drinking until the tip of the rod goes boing.
and they bring a bad name to every reasonable person that likes to fish without comparing it to women, politics, vague weird death threats, etc.
Ignore the downvotes. Fishing is easy as long as one can be very still and very quiet while maintaining the focus needed to react to a fish. People don’t fail at fishing because of lack of “skill.” In my experience they fail because they get bored or make a shit ton of noise. (Or because another group of fishers is loud as fuck - whhhhhy?)
When I was a kid we used to catch tilapia for dinner with a line, a hook, and stale bread. No rod needed. My friend taught me to do it in ten minutes. Not hard.
I ignore all up/down votes. Its pointless gamification that does nothing but lead to polarization and extremity in reaction. Its why social media is a absolute miserable septic tank of over reaction.
But yes, exactly. Its literally one of the simplest, easiest outdoor activities you can do, and you don’t need any training/experience/etc to succeed at it.

I’m pretty sure there is more nuance than what is perceived.
Yes, please tell me how I’m wrong about the thing i’ve been doing my entire life.
Especially the thing I’ve been doing my entire life, around those exact types of people, who wear those exact types of hats/shirts and vote exactly like you expect them too.
You just proved my point - you are experienced. To the experienced, nuance doesnt matter all that much to the point where doing it, is as you essentially said: ‘simple’.
Fishing is simple.
Its so simple that toddlers can do it, unassisted.
Thats why fishing is one of the biggest,easiest outdoor sports one can get into. You need no training, no experience, no youtube video, no manual, no explanation, to be able to do it. You just put a worm on a hook, and throw it in the water.
Thats it. Thats the basic essence of fishing. thats how the vast majority of people fish. Its not expensive, its not complicated, Its not rocket science. Its not difficult.
and thats exactly why these particular types of chuds do it. They arent out there working jigs. They arent out there tying complicated rigs. They aint out there spending hours casting and working artificials. They are out there, putting a worm on a hook, and throwing the line in the water… So they can then turn around and get into their drinking, often heavily, and bitching about women, until the rod tip boings.
I dont know what crawled up your ass about this issue, but its fucking ridiculous to be “but ackshualley” against someone who actually knows these types of people and is answering the question about why so much of it is about fishing.
Bait presentation: Advanced anglers must constantly adjust line thickness, hook sizes, and float depths to trick cautious fish.
Watercraft and knowledge: Knowing fish behavior, seasonal habits, and water temperature dictates success far more than basic casting.
Precise feeding: Match anglers use exact amounts of groundbait and loose feed to draw fish in without overfeeding or scaring them away.
Complex methods: Fine-tuned techniques—such as trotting a stick float down a running river or hitting the exact same spot with a feeder rod repeatedly—require years of practice to master
Pardon me, do you know where I can buy this hat?
Aah, another fish fucker (we wish, right?).
Have you SEEN Prince Sidon? I mean, god DAMN.
John Oliver voice: Now that is a fish that we all want to fuck.
I think there were a lot of jokes about the common “women want me, fish fear me” hats, that turned into parody versions thay are now expanding outward in ways that increasingly diverge from the original.
That’s just a guess, though. Or, just me making up a reason.
the classics are classic for a reason
The last hat is for this guy:
Because I fuck the fish.
Found The Deeps Lemmy user.
What are you, a gay fish?
That position has already been filled by Kanye West.
I came here for this
That looks like a perfect carpet for my carp pet

They/them want me, fish fear me.
The only fish pronouns I recognize are grilled/yummy.
All my homies like beer battered
What about a human who likes fish sticks
Do you like fish sticks?
Believe it or not, gay fish.
recreational animal torture is fucking weird.
Only slightly worse than astrology.
Kill em quick, eat their dicks.
You’re right, but come on, nobody here is worried about weird.
Boo, vegan.
Can you explain why to boo vegans?
I actually don’t have a problem with vegans in general.
But the fingerwagging judgy ones, with their hoiler than thou attitude, shaming others for not subscribing to their view, comparing eating meat to torture done for fun?..
boo to them.
…why? like, if you cut off the top half of the shirt it’d just sound psychotically evil, the shirt’s only funny because of the sudden shift in tone
and you don’t even have to be vegan to agree that recreational hunting is pretty fucked up (although admittedly that’s not precisely what the shirt says but is almost certainly the context in which it’s being worn)
Don’t boo people for being vegan??
vegans aren’t real, they can’t hurt you.
we are, and we can.
alright then bring it
preposterous.
all the “vegans” I have had interactions with online were absurd, emotional, and mentally deficient. all the same qualities of a low quality troll.
they can’t be real because nobody would be stupid enough to weaken themselves by strictly eating vegetation.
besides wouldn’t hurting people go against their whole “vegan” moral superiority?
edit: sorry, didn’t realize I was dealing with the Mormons of the food world.
Your comment on the other hand seems completely reasonable, calm, composed, and truly intellectually capable lmao. No low quality troll detected at all. Maybe the conversations you’re having are so bad quality because of your deficiencies in communication skills? Just a thought, check the mirror.
couldn’t have been that low considering such a “high quality vegan” such as yourself responded.
Maybe the conversations you’re having are so bad quality because of your deficiencies in communication skills?
all the “vegans” I have had interactions with online were absurd, emotional, and mentally deficient.
Emotional, yes. Empathy tends to do that.
Absurd? Mentally deficient? Be more specific. I suspect you don’t like being confronted with the consequences of your choices, so you deflect instead of reflect.
they can’t be real because nobody would be stupid enough to weaken themselves by strictly eating vegetation.
Weaken? Apart from B-12, which many people take supplements for, what do you think is missing from a vegan diet? Certainly not protein; beans are wonderful.
besides wouldn’t hurting people go against their whole “vegan” moral superiority?
Not necessarily. If a person is causing harm and refuses to stop, they may have to be physically stopped.
I’m saving this, thank you. edit: looks like all that heme iron is affecting your sarcasm detection skills
we should all take cues from someone on the RFK meal plan.
