RasperFat posted:No joke, isn’t he partially responsible for things flaring up over there? Did his attitude coming in towards peace talks and the implications of having the super rich son-in-law of POTUS, who doesn’t appear to give a poo poo about human rights, embolden this sort of thing? Partially responsible for is probably taking things too far. Briefly the Sauds are concerned about what they see as an Iranian encirclement with Yemen, Iraq, Syria, Bahrain, and Qatar which you could slot simplistically into the long history of Persian/Arabian Geopolitical animosity. The personal relationship with the orb-wielding Sauds is probably partially responsible but it's an embrace of the Saud vision of a unipolar Middle East that is aimed not just at quashing Iranian influence/ambitions but relegating the other states to a subordinate status. I don't doubt Kushner agrees with the course of events but I'm not sure how much responsibility he has as the Saud push and the American conservative foreign policy agreement are both much larger forces. As for the specific I/P stuff, I won't address it, but Israel is clearly supportive of a more aggressive Saud stance on Iran, but Kushner isn't really responsible for the US stance there.

So my local have-to-deal-with-him-every-day Trumpist has one weird obsession, which is African wildlife and lions in particular. I'm wondering whether all this "let's legalize trophy hunting of endangered African species" thing will filter through to him somehow, or if all it'll do is make him say "Eh, gently caress 'em, I never liked lions anyhow".

All this stuff about wild game hunting is really just code for " we wanna kill animals that are endangered because their tusks / skin is very valuable and would look great on the floor of my smoking room"

Going there and hunting the wildlife is also very expensive as well. It's a class signifier. If these people could pay an exorbitant amount to hunt a human, they'd do it if it made them look cool and good.

I get the argument that killing the alpha in a lion pride if it no longer can breed actually helps the species repopulate since then a virile lion takes over, but I severely doubt any of their sincerity. Me The only person who should be allowed to do that should be someone who loving hates doing it, not someone paying for the privelige.

If you read the description of these big game hunting expeditions, it's the best insight into the idea of achievement that the filth reach have. Locals get paid to track, locate, bait and contain the animal, locals drive filth rich scumbag to the section of the enclosed resort where the animal is, load and prepare the weapons, and scumbag just points and shoot. Locals then field dress and remove trophies from animal. Rich scumbag then takes all the credit and brags to his social circle about his accomplishment.

All to hearken back to the days of colonialism where these stuffy white guys go to Africa to bring back some sort of trophy to act like they aren't limp wrist-ed rich kids. Its never not hilarious how people who never have to work in their whole lives try to pretend to be and look like anyone that actually needed to hunt to survive.

And that was in an era when having big game trophies was seen as admirable by your peers. I'd like (I'd like) to think that in this day and age all it'd get you is a lot of dirty looks and ostracism from the high rollers and A-listers you hope to rub shoulders with. I mean do they think supermodels will get all moist when they see an elephant tusk on their dinner table or a lion head on the wall? Are there really that many of the monocle-and-pith-helmet set still kicking around to impress with that sort of poo poo? I've been in some pretty well appointed mansions in the NYC area and seen what their inhabitants fill them with, and it's like multi-hundred-thousand-dollar paintings and antique original Steinway pianos and things, not relics of the loving reign of Leopold II.

It's one-ups-manship. It's not about signaling to the larger community. These guys have another guy in their life they want to show they're better than. Often times it's their dad.

Big game hunters should get the choice between a boar spear with those cross bars or bolt action rifle with like one round and a bayonet. Sometimes you get the lion and sometimes the lion gets you. Edit: Helicopter hunts are allowed but you are only given a knife and you must leap from the helicopter onto your target. Telsa Cola fucked around with this message at 21:03 on Nov 18, 2017 |

It’s my understanding that by having some rich rear end in a top hat pay an exorbitant fee to hunt down an animal that was likely going to be put down anyway (sick, killed a human, etc), the local communities are able to fully fund massive wildlife preserves and anti-poaching efforts. If that’s not actually the case then please let me know, but otherwise tricking some tiny-dicked rear end in a top hat into preserving wildlife seems like a good thing.

I'm perfectly fine with deer and other traditional hunting, as it's pretty well regulated and managed in a sustainable way. Hunters are generally more progressive than they realize when it comes to land conservation, and it can be an effective inroad in trying to unplug them from the Fox News cult. Mocking rich people safaris and lauding the "honor" of marching into the woods at 5 a.m. in the snow and just chillin' with a muzzle loader is surprisingly effective.
