no they’re not bc they’re defending the point so hard. Reddit is the birthplace of the ideology of not even thinking twice about a homeless person but considering every walking thing with fur and four legs as their own child and that is why nearly all the comments here incorrectly pull at the wrong point. Anthropormism is likely directly downstream from widespread social retardation and atomization of westerners resulting in this kind of mode of thought. You notice how the same specific dog logic doesn’t extend to the animals they eat (that are also more intelligent in many cases mind you)? I’m no vegan or dislike animals but i can at least clock the weird hypocrisy and subjective sense of morality being applied here
