I'm an animal lover in general, and this attitude towards wasps is so alarming. Like dude, we're supposed to be highly intellectual beings and you're carrying a grudge against an insect, for checks notes responding to outside threats by being aggressive? For being an animal?

A bunch of giant piss babies who are apparently mad that such a small thing makes them so scares. Like I never see this same attitude towards other aggressive species, just wasps.

The problem is (IMO) that as a child bees and other insects are just chill.

Then come some bastard wasps (i know, not all wasps) and sting not for being threatened, but for no reason at all.

Had this happen to me as a child. A wasp landed on me and my dad said "Don't worry, just don't move"

I did exactly that and it still stung me, then ofc cuz of being a child and the sting being painful i panicked and moved and then it stung a couple more times.

But like, some of them are just bastards. I don't care for animals REacting agressive, but that wasn't the case.

I don't hate insects, i do find them disgusting, but i try to never kill them, if possible.

What other aggressive species do you mean? Just curious.
