    Cats are (American) libertarians.

    Completely dependent on a system they neither understand or appreciate, while claiming complete independence from it, and constantly try to tear it all down.

      I lol’d,

      But when i think about it more, cats could actually go feral and survive on their own

      Unlike libertarians who couldnt last 2 days wothout driving their fat asses down a publicly funded road in their giant SUV fueled by publicly subsidized gas prices. Driving to go to the supermarket to buy food produced with farm subsidies and whatever public funds are upholding the temporary foreign slave labour we import seasonally to harvest food…

      American libertarians are just republicans who are ashamed to call themselves that. Also, some of them like weed.

      Well, you’ve messed up my claim. Yes, some cats are totally like that, and would never survive on their own. Others wouldn’t give their past human servants a second thought if they found themselves outside. Still, they are not right wing.

        The right-wing attitude can be boiled down to “I’ve got mine, fuck you, give me yours”.

        The details vary, but that’s the core of it.

        Cats certainly qualify. I own three of them and they’re all assholes.

          Feral cats even benefit from the vast amounts of waste we generate. Mice and other prey live off our scraps, even if the cats don’t directly.

          It’s scary how analogous they are to the libertarians. Never seen a cute libertarian though.
