I’m not defending him. I agree that catch and release is bad, but I’m saying you didn’t differentiate between that and fishing for consumption, which made it seem like you were deeming all fishing as bad, and that’s why you’re getting downvoted. I’m just saying that in the future you need to differentiate because there is a difference.
If you’re vegan that’s fine, but you can’t ignore that ethical and sustainable fishing is scientifically proven to be good for the environment. I personally don’t like hunting and I will never date someone who hunts, but I understand the role that hunting plays in an ecosystem and that it’s necessary. You can understand science and have your personal beliefs and lifestyle choices believe it or not.
