    Isn’t most of veganism based on consent?

    Bees are the epitome of consent. If the hive didn’t want to be in that beehouse they would leave.

      The queen is too large to fit through the screens keeping her in and the hive is pretty doomed without her.

      TIL domestic abuse is consentual. After all if the abused party didn’t want to stay they could just leave.

      See the problem. If you put an equally good hive nearby and didn’t take the honey from it the bees would probably stay there.

      Also honey farms are hotbeds of disease and we don’t have little bee vets. We plug the hive with petroleum soaked rags and burn them alive. Cool and good.

      Honey bee farming also displaces native pollinators leading to starvation and death.
