The post is silly, but western dog culture is still misanthropic, gross, and hypocritical. I will never trust people who say they like animals more than people (weird how they usually eat meat…). They remind me of that lady who demanded the removal of homeless people at a public park because they scared her dog. Also, Reddit doggo language is like nails on a chalk board.
I only agree with the latter half of your post. Being a misanthrop is a bad thing now? If you discriminate against everyone equally on the basis of their humanity, there is no problem. It’s pretty based, actually. And dogs are based aswell. Introverts, autistics, anti social mentally ill people… they all probably like their dog more than the people around them because they cannot participate in normal human to human connection. Through their dog they get a chance to still socialise somewhat. So I believe the misantrophic “I trust animals more than people”-people should not be treated as a bad thing
Yeah, as someone who’s mildly autistic I feel much more comfortable around dogs, whose feelings and wants are clearly communicated without speaking, than humans, who don’t even directly communicate their intentions with the ability to speak.
I dont think it’s a progressive mindset personally. I assume most people on here are against capitalism because they care about people and their well-being and believe that humanity is worth saving in spite of its flaws.
I don’t think being autistic automatically makes someone a misanthrope. Yeah, it’s harder to process social cues, but at the same time I don’t want to believe that I’d chose the lives of my gerbilles over a human if my apartment caught fire or whatever.
I also don’t think being autistic makes you a misanthrope, in fact, I think that is a harmful stereotype. Autistic extroverts exist. I’m autistic myself.
But people rejected by society and forced into solitude due to their noncomformative behavior exist (some of them are autistic) and I understand why these guys would rather not socialise or have anything to do with humans

i don’t think that’s actually that common or really much of an issue at all. homeless people also have and love their dogs.

Hey I get your sentiment, but you don’t have to use misogynist language to express it.
