The mosquito has no such qualm.
- jmiskovic 4y agoMosquito needs to feed to survive, and isn't exactly my ethical aspiration. I get the argument that they are not important for ecosystem and that they spread dangerous diseases. But do you think it is a good idea to gamify the act of killing for more enjoyment? Genuinely interested.
- batch12 4y agoAnything that can inspire people to go forth and kill more mosquitos has my vote.
- kortilla 4y agoWould you have qualms with the gamification of plucking weeds?
- mLuby 4y agoIf we had a paddle that let you cleanse the air of coronavirus, would you be against people using it? Mosquito-borne illnesses are a thousand times more deadly.

Mosquitos kill more people each year than all other animals combined - including humans. I believe violence for fun is evil, but perhaps this is one instance where it is to be encouraged. Perhaps gamifying it in this way distances people from the feeling of ending a life.
