that’s fine, because I regularly compare leftists to small hive beetles.
For the non-beekeepers out there:
Small Hive Beetles are a pest that affects beehives. They are from Africa and they came on the scene relatively recently. No one knows how they got here. They just appeared all of a sudden (hmmm...)
They breed in honeycomb, creating lots and lots of lovely maggots. They also eat stored pollen and bee eggs and larvae and defecate all over the hive. If they get out of control, they’ll slime out a hive with their feces either killing it or causing the bees to leave and take up residence elsewhere. Either way, the beekeeper is left with a ruined hive.
