Ah, we have found a rodent sympathizer! I feel for you, comrade. We must all strive to create a better world for the proletariat llama.


You are a reactionary for claiming llamas are better than squirrels. Marx himself noted that the system of oppression which shackles the working class today is not stemming from the existence of squirrels (who have been exploited by the llamas) but rather the llamas themselves.

I've never had a llama, or indeed any camelid, do me wrong.

But I just spent three days and four trips to two different hardware stores fortifying my cellar door after a squirrel tried to chew its way through it and get into my kitchen. Squirrels also knocked down my bird feeder and chewed holes in it, apparently because they were pissed that I hadn't refilled it after they ran off the birds and ate all the birdseed. My parents have twice had a squirrel chew down through the ceiling and get into the house and run around chewing on things for no goddamn reason in the winter when the house was empty.

Give me my sword, and I'm totally down for fighting a llama-sized squirrel. I'd even fight five llama-sized squirrels.

This is such a close election! Will either side concede if they lose?

Squirrels are more edible, but they are high in cholesterol.

I choose llama because:

I’ve never seen a real llama in my life and llamas are a conspiracy theory by the Incas so squirrels

Just kidding. Llamas just look like a weird brother of alpacas though. It doesn’t give off that kind of cool or cute vibe imo

I wish we could eradicate grey squirrels in the UK. Red squirrels are cute though.

The West won the world not by the superiority of its ideas or values or religion … but rather by its superiority in applying organized violence. Westerners often forget this fact; non-Westerners never do.
