it's adorable the people in there saying "go to NPR, go to social media, blow this up!"
most clueless white person thing to think ever. Pigs murder, what, 10,000 dogs a year on average? They're a dog killing factory. why would the bootlicking media give a single ounce of fuck?
yeah if I recall it's like 1 dog every hour in the US, quite frequently its their own police dogs too

A while ago I did see "1313-1" which is apparently the length you must go to in some subs w/ automated filters.
I wonder, does (UTF-8/ASCII) {65 67 65 66|A C A B} work?
Also I stg if this turns into a struggle session about pitbulls I'm locking the thread.
Kill cops not dogs.
Please ban anyone who engages in the racist bullshit against pits. I hate those pieces of shit so much
Every time i see pitbull in Poland i know there is a fascist nearby. Literally, they are so integral part of the football hooligan and skinhead subcultures that i never seen anyone else have a pitbull.
Ok, but doesn’t that reinforce my point that it’s an irresponsible owner problem and not a genetically inherent aggression problem?
Absolutely, but also explains that people not liking them not automatically make them "dog phrenologists". Correlation does not make causation in this case, but also do not nullify correlation.
Wrong. Blaming the breed for the owner is fucking mentally lacking.
Don't worry I already wrote a whole fucking effort post about this. Just link this post when any dipshit tries to do race science on dogs. https://hexbear.net/comment/4820945
I like you, I really do. Most of the time anyway.
Please read this and do some self crit before posting racist ass shit perpetuating stereotypes about dogs used to advance white supremacist agendas. https://hexbear.net/post/166819
This is about dog breeds, nothing to do with racism. Holy shit.
"If I ignore the history of a situation, saying anything I want about it is easy!"
People tried to show you, both here and in threads 2 years ago lmfao, what you are ingorant of, and yet you are still just "UM, This is about DOGS, not PEOPLE."
intentionally ignorant
I think you're not only terribly overreacting, but nothing i my post warrant this, as i described the reality here. I even agreed to the meritum in the next post.
dog phrenology
Fr, fascists and people who think pits are violent genetically instead of having shitty people abuse them into it solidarity emoji.
How can you be racist against a dog breed? Like you mean "breedist" or something?
On top of what GinAndJuche said, there's multiple layers to it. Racists often use pitbulls as a way of introducing people who don't know any better to race-essentialist thinking. "This dog breed is inherently more dangerous and aggressive, they need to be put down for their own good," that kind of talking point. Then the rhetorical focus becomes more abstract and instead of being about dog breeds, it becomes about racial groups, so they make a parallel between supposedly dangerous dog breeds and undesirable minority groups.
Read up on the history of anti pit bull propaganda (if you believe any of the dumbass nonsense like locking jaws you’ve already fallen for it). It’s intrinsically tied to an increase of POC ownership of the breed and racists using that as an opportunity to create a stigma around the breed.
There was a thread a {couple years back|don't read the comments lmao} about a study in behavior differences between dog breeds. The behaviors that actually reliably differ by breed are:
Retrieves objects
Howls
Avoids getting wet
Points
Which notably doesn't include whatever people keep saying about pitbulls.
lol which dogs avoid getting wet?
we've got three dogs and two immediately jump in a body of water they see and the other goes on pee strike if it's so much as drizzling outside
he does love the snow tho bizzarely
Cat dogs
I have a husky who hates water. Think it's a survival instinct where water means freezing to death. Also, double coat means they hold a ton of water
What's that formatting with {|}? First time I'm seeing it. Is there a name for it? Doesn't look like superscript.
AFAIK it's a very recently implemented feature and as I understand it it's derived from a Japanese script style convention for annotating text with different characters (I think? I'm just inferring from context here).
In Japanese it's called furigana or yomigana, but it's also used for other ideographic/character based scripts where it's apparently called {ルビ | ruby} {characters | fuck 12}

RIP sweet girl 
I wish it didn't take dogs being shot for redditors to see how disgustingly evil cops are. You'd think young disabled Black men getting shot would've put us in the same page, but much like the border camps ("Tell a middle aged white lady they're holding puppies in overcrowded cages without feeding them and she'll become a terrorist. Tell her it's hispanic children...") you can't count on anyone having empathy for PoC.
Meanwhile, what is it that actually makes it to the front page of that shithole copaganda site?
I hate myself for saying this, but burning such a horrific way to go. I’d temporarily put my hate for cops aside if they saved my dog from that hell.
Oh definitely. I'd be eternally grateful to any person who saved my best friend from death, even if it weren't such an excruciating one as burning. Whatever cop saved that dog did an undeniably good thing and I didn't mean the comment as a condemnation of that one. Cops in general are actually capable of doing doing good, actually. It just doesn't change the fundamentally evil role they play in a capitalist society nor the fact that on the whole they're prone to doing despicable things as a result of that position... and the sociopathic feedback loop of that role attracting people who want to do despicable things in the first place.
I was just pointing out that what gets boosted and celebrated on reddit is the copaganda stories. It's the post linked by OP that everyone on reddit should be made aware of, and how common the practice is of cops murdering dogs. Instead, I found it really ironic that literally minutes after seeing this post, the thing I see on reddit's front page with tens of thousands more upvotes is yet another heroic cop story, pretty much the polar opposite of this one.
I got you, there’s just a contingent of shitheads who would dunk on dog saving. Why DiDnT He SaVe AnOthER AnImAl. As if they aren’t the animal closest to us, well maybe besides pests that rely on an urban environment. Those rely on us even more, arguably at least.
Most of the cops I encounter on a daily basis are either polite or neutral to everyone around town and on the train (unless the passenger is homeless). Capitalism aside, regardless of how nice or funny or relatable they are to me, it doesn't change the fact that if I was murdered by their colleague just for fun, they would choose to stay silent instead of turning their partner in. The rare instances when cops do have a conscious, they either commit suicide or die in a training accident a few months later.
There were 2 other similar copaganda posts in 24 hours. I'm sure they were boosted because of this post.
this fucker's either bootlicking or brand new
So a group of police conducted a pre-planned raid at your house without a warrant and shot your dog, due to something your minor brother is into?
This is ragebait, guaranteed. OP is a liar.
I wish I had time to drop on them a pile of articles about that exact fucking thing happening. Not that it would affect their "thinking," but I prefer when there's a cited refutation for passersby.
wow that sounds so out of place for Yankistani cops, usually they're beacons of virtue and honour
This is my fucking nightmare scenario. Gonna hug my Husky for a bit.
Brb need to go hold my sweetheart.
a sad thought my partner and i had when we got our Belgian malnois:
at least there's a smaller chance cops would kill her because it would be like killing their own (yes i know they often kill their own)
lo and behold when they go out cops frequently want to pet her. at the very least it's sort of protection for my partner who otherwise looks very "woke" and the kind of person cops would fuck with
