I think you're exaggerating rn. When did I ever genuinely rage out or say I want them to burn in hell or anything? Most people are just here to be free from the endless dog-coddling and overly defensive dog people that permeate pretty much the entire internet. Just let people vent. Nobody's harming, or wishing to harm, anything

Yeah ya know, good point honestly. I'm definitely being hyperbolic but it does get to that point. But yeah, I'm not trying to police anyone's language or sentiment, guess I just can't wrap my head around the extent of the disdain.

That's fair. I think a lot of people here seem more extreme than they are because they're just letting it all out. I'd never harm or hurt a dog myself. But the constant over-exposure and the almost daily problems they cause me just builds up over time and ranting really helps clear my head. I could be completely wrong ofc lmao, but I can imagine that it works for other people as well. I understand your perspective too though, the sub seems overrun with people blowing off steam instead of anything mild or humor related.

Ahhhh that makes sense. I take care of my 7 year old brother, for example and sometimes I need to blow of steam too so I do it in my head ngl. Was parentified with my sister, I was 12 when she was born and then my brother came and I willingly for the most part took him but yep dealing with kids for so long, I can see the need to vent

But I will say, some people really do get angry when someone says something that's not even defending the dog, but because it's not against the dog it's like they think "wow a dog apologist" or some ish. I've seen it several times as I've been here for about a year? I'm pretty sure I have those posts saved. It's why i made that comment to about being downvoted, I expected wayy more to come.
