Humans are the reason we can’t have nice things

There was a TiKTok video getting posted to Reddit that showed a bunch of adult Chinese women (in China) posing for selfies while standing in and trampling upon a rural farmer’s rapeseed oil plants (Brassica napus subsp. napus). For whatever it’s worth the farmer was also an older Chinese woman, maybe in her 40-50’s.

These were not tweens, teenagers, or young twenty-somethings but grown-ass 30 year old+ adult women, a group of around 20-30 of them, acting just like spoiled “influencer” brats afflicted by FOMO.

The farmer looked so exhausted- it exhausted the hell of of me watching it. It was as if “ooh, pretty yellow flowers” was enough to justify killing plants and fucking with someone’s livelihood.

Sunflower growers here in the States have similar problems.
