Anthropomorphic
Idiocy
Hollywood Really Outdoes Itself
By D.W.
Attention… Attention: a high priority safety message from the source
of all wisdom and knowledge known as Hollywood. White men no longer
have a monopoly on the serial killer business. Now wild animals can
also become serial killers too!
Yes, one day little scruffy may actually snuff you out when you are
sleeping; thank God for Hollywood!
The Hollywood thriller Primeval is a movie about one of the most
prolific serial killers in history. Who is this evil menace
terrorizing the human race?
He is a legendary 25-foot African crocodile known as Gustave, who
actually exists in South Africa. He has claimed over 300 victims and
is still at large to this day. The film Primeval features a news
team who is tasked with tracking down and capturing this deadly
villain and bringing him to civilization; and to justice no doubt.
Of course who else would you send to capture a vicious murdering
psycho path but a band of journalists because we all know how noble
and courageous reporters are?
However, their suspect proves far more elusive and deadlier than
they anticipated from those rascally crocodiles. And to complicate
matters further a rogue warlord who actually murders people in cold
blood targets them for death. Yes, now African warlords are the
moral equivalent of crocodiles.
What would the Crocodile Hunter, Steve Irwin, have thought about
this movie?
I would suspect that he would have been flabbergasted to find out
that crocodiles are now serial killers despite everything he had
worked hard for. If only the wonderful wizards of Hollywood would
have informed him earlier.
Let’s think about this for a moment: wild carnivorous crocodile =
Ted Bundy and Jeffery Dahmer?
The definition of a serial killer is as follows:
Serial killers are
individuals who have a history of multiple slayings of victims who
were generally unknown to them beforehand. Their crimes are
committed as a result of a compulsion that, in many but not all
cases, has roots in the killer's (often dysfunctional) youth, as
opposed to those who are motivated by financial gain (e.g. contract
killers) or ideological/political motivations (e.g. terrorists).

Considering the definition presented here, can we infer that
crocodiles have a dysfunctional childhood?
Do crocodiles know their victims beforehand and plan their murders
out ahead of time? Do crocodiles have a secret life that scientist
know nothing about? Perhaps we can conduct genetic tests to
determine if a certain crocodile is predisposed to random violence?
This movie highlights the sheer idiocy of the Hollywood crowd who
hold nothing sacred, especially not the truth.
Crocodiles are wild carnivorous animals; all of them, not just some.
By wild I mean that they cannot be tamed and can never be. They will
do what is in their nature to do, despite any training they may
receive. And crocodiles are carnivorous because they only eat meat
and nothing else. Carnivorous animals kill other living animals and
eat them. That is how they survive. Why is this so hard for these
Hollywood loons, who speak so authoritatively about science, to
grasp?
What I am going to say now will be a real shocker to all of the
Hollywood insiders out there. To a wild carnivorous crocodile, a
human being is just a piece of meat. You may not taste better than a
nice juicy antelope, but at least a crocodile in Africa thinks you
might be yummy.
This movie is just the tip of the anthropomorphic iceberg.
Hollywood producers have been trying to turn animals into people for
years. I shouldn’t need to go into great depth to exemplify this,
but I suppose I will. The movie Happy Feet portrays penguins as
people with much better musical skills so that viewers will become
sympathetic to conservation causes in the artic regions. Plenty of
movies about barnyard animals acting like people when humans aren’t
looking are great ways to advance the vegetarian agenda. Why would
you eat a motorcycle riding cow?
Now maybe the movie producers are just using the serial killer spin
to make the film sound more appealing to a perspective audience.
This is still a bad idea because there are plenty of idiots out
there who may actually think that wild animals can become serial
killers. Wildlife conservation efforts require an accurately
informed public to garner support for programs that actually work.
That is what Steve Irwin dedicated his life to doing with great
effect. He showed us that even ferocious beasts were just animals
like any other wild animal trying to survive.
Let’s start using some talk straight about wildlife and then maybe
we can save them.
