How many PETA members responded to that before the correction? LOL

Reminds me of Yahoo! News's N-word navy, a.k.a. the greatest thing to ever happen to the internet.

Most animals you shave them they look pathetic, bears? Fuck no! I can easily imagine using shaved bears to scare enemy troops away.

Wtf shaving what lol
wadenelson
Shaving beavers would be a lot more credible.
SoberAndBored
In this timeline? I was trying to work out how shaving bears helps. I just accepted that's what they're doing.
theock2
But why?
CaldariBob
2016. The bears have likely grown that hair back by now.
KittyRio
I was like, what do bears have to do with anything?
mindstorm8191
And do they even have bears in that part of the world? Are they importing them from somewhere else???

At this point they're begging for a Mandalorian styled skirmish to destroy them, assholes
GermanShepherdGuy
So what’s the problem? Bombing the bears? Or the civilians? I say lay waste to everything and give them no where to hide!! ?♂️
stoutde
Well I tell you what, I wouldn't fuck with anyone who shaves bears for a hobby.
MyRespectableAlterEgo
You should see what they do to Twinks.
(Actually you shouldn’t: it’s a horrific crime against humanity we should never tolerate or trivialise with tasteless jokes & I apologise)

Step 1: shave a bunch of bears and release them. Step 2: If it doesn't work, or they stop falling for it move to the final step:
Step 3: Now YOU get naked and start crawling around on all fours. They will think you're just one of the bears you released earlier.
(Optional) Step 4: If you find that you actually enjoy living like this, consider becoming feral full-time.

Came to the comments looking for this. Laughed for like 10seconds straight. +1, was not disappointed.
hesbeginningtobelieve
That is so sad :(
PackedCatMeowingPowerDensity
As a zoo animal it is inheritly sad, but not because it is shaven.
It’s not shaven…. That’s mange or something similar.

Don't feed the yao guai.

Great way to get the civilian population to hate you. See 1776.

Yeah, in the US. Not so much in Afghanistan.

So they are going against their religion to hide? I thought beards were a big thing?
geoffreyfourmyle
Sikhs will avoid shaving beards, but Sikhs are awesome and would be seen as infidels by these whackjobs. As far as Islam goes, there's /1
nothing in the Qur'an about facial hair afaik. It's all tribal traditions that've taken on religious weight, like the way we celebrate /2
Christmas as the birth of Jesus even though the date was wildly wrong. /3
corndude101
Christmas took the place of Saturnalia. It was an attempt to cover up a pagan celebration.
Yep. They couldn't manage their own festival, so the "date of birth" got retroactively changed to match up.
DukeDarkwood
And co-opted as many other winter solstice festivals as they could, such as Yule, mashing their traditions into one.
FormerlySable
Less to cover up than to hitch a ride on its coattails. Co-opting a tradition & gradually making it your own is how you get it to stay. (1)
FellaWithUmbrella
Most Christian holidays are there to replace pagan holidays.

Beards are not a religious requirement for them, but a significant, cultural symbol of masculinity. Shaving them off would be like …
if our Special Operations Forces men put on disguises to look like women or young children to avoid detection by the enemy. Despite all the
Islamic macho bravado, it is not uncommon for their men to shield themselves with women and children in combat. Osama Bin Laden held one of
his wives in front of himself as a shield when the U.S. Navy SEALS penetrated his compound and were after him.
