Imagine hating dogs enough to post on “r/dogfree”.
Over 4.5 million people in the US alone are bitten by dogs every year. Dogs are fast, strong, vicious animals which can and do maul people. All the time. Why pretend not to understand why some people fear or hate them?
My next door neighbor has one of those giant neglected murder beasts that sits in the back yard all day and barks non-stop. Every day I leave for work, I have to listen to it barking at me and scrabbling at the fence and wonder, “Is today the day that it jumps the fence and literally eats my face?” (cw: the pictures are not particularly pleasant)
I then get to work, and my coworker, unprompted, for the fifteenth time, tells me that I should adopt a dog and how great dogs are. And I tell him, again, that there is no chance of that happening whatsoever.
Then I log onto the internet on my phone and see, “Biggest red flag? When someone doesn’t like dogs. I mean what kind of freak would you have to be not to like heckin puppers? They’re so wholesome! Better than people!”
It is no wonder that there are places where people vent about not liking dogs.
Did I say “imagine being scared of dogs”? No, I said “Imagine hating dogs and dog owners so much that you post on a toxic subreddit entirely dedicated to that hate”
It’s like someone said “r/incel” is a toxic community and you went and said “Well actually loneliness and depression among young males is a serious problem, why are you making fun of them?”

Having empathy for victims of violence is being a “nerd?”
Straight up, fuck you. Terminally online irony-poisoned redditlord.
It’s one thing to be afraid of dogs, and it’s another to be a fucking jackass hating all dogs unconditionally to a cartoonish point.
So yeah, fuck you :nerd:
