It’s the classic western thing where we acknowledge a problem and then decide on the dumbest possible solution, which we somehow make 3x as expensive and also individualist.
Animals aren’t people. So yes they literally should have less care and resources put towards them.
Note: I’m not saying abuse dogs or some shit but the average suburban golden retriever in the US has better living conditions than 50% of the people on the planet. Nothing pisses me off more than when we have entire industries that revolve around pampering wealthy people’s pets. I see advertisements with sad music whining about animals eating the same processed food and instead you should feed them fresh meat or fish. Pet food consumption would make it the 5th largest country in terms of consuming meat products. Guess what the biggest driver of deforestation is? Part of fixing poverty is removing wasteful bourgeois elements in society. In wealthy dominating nations there needs to be reduced consumption across the board. That includes Fido.
Fuck off with the comparison to rhetoric about immigrants. You’re showing your entire ass.
Why the fuck is there a subreddit called /r/dogfree? Dogs are rad
Some people make hating something other people like their entire personality. These people are called “redditors”
tagline material tbh.
“actually, did you know [popular, harmless thing] is terrible?”
What if you took all the ridiculous behavior of anti-natalists and made them anti-pet?
Is this not the joke that the subreddit is making?
It’s not ironic
Yeah, this feels like a sarcasm sub in reaction to r/childfree
That sub is completely sincere. I’m sure it started as a joke sub, but it aint anymore
I’m not a reddit or about it but I think dogs being everywhere in public is kind of annoying.
Furthermore, I think dogs being treated like people in a society which has such extreme poverty is emblematic of a deep sickness.

Right because recognizing that pets consume a massive amount of industrial meat products means I’m being reactionary. Maybe go read!
