Woah
I love honeybees but they get way too much of the attention
Whenever people talk about protecting bees, they mean honey bees (Even when a photo appears, it is mainly of honey bees or their hive)
And it is honey bees, among others, that have influenced the number of solitary bees (Adding to this human activity on meadows, i.e. their reduction, and it is wild flowers that solitary bees feed on)
Bumblebees and solitary bees are the main pollinators, but people will only talk about honey bees, yes, that's why "Bee Movie" is sus, and it was he who most influenced the thinking that if honey bees go extinct, everything will automatically wither, because apparently there are no solitary bees or bumblebees in this universe)
We should take more care of solitary bees and bumblebees, because they are the most valuable of all pollinators + They are less aggressive than honey bees
remember kids, homelessness is the direct result of flaws in the capitalist system 👍 it is not the result of laziness, addiction, or even misfortune. it is a state of being only possible when profit becomes more important than humanity 👍 homelessness is manufactured as a threat, or a promise of what will happen if you don't give your labor to the ruling class 👍 we can disarm this threat by removing its power to cause fear and by being kind to the homeless 👍
