M14 with what looks like a 10 round mag using a cheap 10x60 optic? You are most likely a Californian or Canadian using an ineffective firearm against cryptids.

Real Americans use a drum fed semi-auto shotgun loaded P++ .50 caliber deer slugs or a 30-06 cal AR-10 with 25 round mag using a magnified Trijicon optic.

That looks too small to pack 20rds of .308cal, so if it’s a .556mm/223cal it’s still insufficient to kill any cryptid.

Wow. It’s almost as if America was built on native American burial grounds with all the accompanying curses.

It’s of course because these creatures came from crypto currencies. They just took a while to mature to a point where people started witnessing them

You didn’t watch enough trashy Discovery Channel shows from the 00s onward?

Funny enough, the term was coined in the 80’s

Sure, but the fad about them among the kids is recent.

I guess I’ve been getting all the goblincore posts, not enough cryptid action. I need to switch it up!

This stereotype is just based on Europeans exoticising native American culture
